Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Beerst

The Drive from Brussels Zaventem to Beerst

Beerst lies 138 km (86 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 1 h 28 m. That makes it a proper cross-country journey towards the West Flemish countryside rather than a quick hop, so it helps to plan for a comfortable ride. Traffic around the Brussels ring is the main variable: on weekday mornings and late afternoons, and on busy holiday weekends, it is sensible to allow some extra time, especially if you have a fixed appointment or event at the other end.

This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other, and your driver takes you straight to your address without any transfers along the way.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle should match your group and luggage rather than just your headcount.

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) suits solo travellers, couples and small families with standard luggage.
• Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) gives a group of four a dedicated car for the whole trip.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats and 16 Seats work well for larger families, friends travelling together or small business groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats cover bigger parties such as wedding guests, sports teams, tour groups and company outings, so everyone arrives together.

On a journey of almost an hour and a half, a little extra space is worth it, so choose the larger option if you are unsure.

About Beerst

Beerst is a small village in the municipality of Diksmuide, in the province of West Flanders. It sits in the flat, open landscape of the Flemish polders, not far from the IJzer river. Expect a quiet rural setting with farmland, local lanes and a calm pace, which is quite a contrast to the busy airport you are leaving behind. Because it is a small place, it is best to have the exact street address or a pin location ready so your driver can take you directly to the door.
