Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Condé-sur-l’Escaut

The Drive from Brussels Airport

The journey from Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Condé-sur-l’Escaut covers 110 km (69 miles) and typically takes 1 h 18 m. The route leads south-west across Belgium and over the border into northern France. Rush-hour traffic around Brussels, particularly in the morning and late afternoon, can lengthen the trip, so build in a margin if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch. Poor weather can also slow the motorway sections. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, and a private driver takes you directly to your address without any changes along the way.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you need depends mainly on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi: 1-4 passengers, suited to individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: 1-8 passengers, a good choice when you carry extra suitcases or travel as a larger family.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: 1-16 or 1-24 passengers, practical for business teams, clubs and friends travelling together.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: 1-32, 1-40 or 1-48 passengers, intended for tour parties, school trips and large delegations.

If your group is close to the upper limit of a vehicle, choosing the next size up gives everyone more room for bags.

About Condé-sur-l’Escaut

Condé-sur-l’Escaut is a town in the Nord department of northern France, lying on the Escaut (Scheldt) river close to the Belgian border. It is part of the Valenciennes area, so many visitors travel here to see family, for work in the region, or as a base for exploring the border country between Hainaut and northern France. The town is relatively small, which makes a door-to-door transfer a convenient way to arrive, since you avoid planning onward connections with luggage.
