Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Bassenge

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU), holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight over and meet your driver without any searching.

The Drive to Bassenge

The route covers 102 km (64 miles) and typically takes 1 h 3 m, heading east from Zaventem towards the province of Liège. Bassenge lies close to the Dutch border, so the last part of the journey leaves the main roads for quieter local ones. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or late-afternoon rush around Brussels, or in heavy rain or winter weather. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, so you can arrange it ahead of your arrival.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a Private Taxi is the simplest choice, with versions for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. If you travel with a lot of luggage or in a group of up to eight, the Private Minibus with 8 seats gives you more room. Larger parties, such as sports teams, wedding guests, company groups or tour parties, can book a Private Minibus with 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so everyone arrives together in one vehicle instead of splitting across several cars.

About Bassenge

Bassenge is a municipality in the Walloon province of Liège, in a quiet, largely rural area not far from Maastricht and the Meuse valley. It is best known for the Fort Eben-Emael, a historic fortress within the municipality. Visitors usually come for the surrounding countryside, for family and business visits, or for a stop on a longer trip through eastern Belgium. A private transfer is a practical way to get there, as it takes you directly to your address.
