Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Coevorden

The drive from Brussels Airport to Coevorden

The route covers 302 km (188 miles) and typically takes 3 h 24 m. It leads north out of Belgium and across the Netherlands to Drenthe, close to the German border. Coevorden is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request just like any other. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hours, or in heavy rain or fog. Traffic around the large Dutch cities can add delays to a drive of this length. A private transfer means one journey with no changes, which is a real advantage after a flight with luggage.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice. It is offered for 1-3 passengers or 1-4 passengers, so check your luggage as well as the headcount. Larger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. That covers anything from a family trip with plenty of suitcases to a coach-sized group such as a sports club, a company outing or a wedding party. On a drive of more than three hours, a little extra space is usually worth having.

About Coevorden as a destination

Coevorden is a small town in the province of Drenthe, right by the German border. It is known for its old fortified layout and its castle, which give the centre a historic character. The surrounding region is flat and green, popular with cyclists and walkers, and the town is a practical base for visiting Emmen and other parts of eastern Drenthe. Give the driver the exact address when you book, so the final stretch of the journey goes smoothly.
