Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Cambron-Casteau

The drive from Brussels Airport to Cambron-Casteau

The route covers 81 km (50 miles) and typically takes 1 h 2 m. Most of the journey heads west and south-west out of the Brussels region, so the first stretch is the part most affected by traffic. On weekday mornings and late afternoons the roads around Brussels can slow down considerably, and it is sensible to add a buffer if you have a fixed appointment or a timed ticket at the other end. Outside those peaks the trip is usually smooth.

Choosing the right vehicle

Cambron-Casteau is a less frequently booked destination, but transfers are available on request just like on any other route. Smaller parties can choose a private taxi: one version is for up to 3 passengers, another for up to 4. Larger groups, such as families travelling together, school trips or company outings, are better served by a private minibus. Minibuses come with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so you can match the vehicle closely to your group and luggage instead of splitting people across several cars.

About Cambron-Casteau

Cambron-Casteau is a small village in the Hainaut province of Wallonia, part of the municipality of Brugelette. It is best known as the home of Pairi Daiza, the zoo and botanical park that draws visitors from across Belgium and neighbouring countries. Beyond the park the surroundings are rural and quiet, with fields and small villages rather than large urban centres. A door-to-door transfer is practical here, since you are taken straight to your destination without planning connections at the end of a flight.
