Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Daun

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Daun

The route covers 289 km (180 miles) and typically takes 3 h 4 m. Most of the journey is on motorway before the road leads into the hills of the Eifel region, where the last stretch to Daun runs on regional roads. Daun is not a frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels, or in winter, when snow and ice can slow traffic in the Eifel. Your driver monitors conditions and chooses the best route on the day.

Meeting Point at Brussels Zaventem Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

A long ride of over three hours is more comfortable with enough space, so pick the vehicle by group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi: 1-4 passengers, suited to individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: up to 8 passengers, useful for larger families or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: mid-sized groups, clubs and company teams.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: large groups, coach-style travel for events, tours or school trips.

If you are travelling with sports gear, hiking equipment or several large suitcases, choose the next size up.

About Daun

Daun is a town in the Vulkaneifel district of Rhineland-Palatinate, in western Germany. It is known for its volcanic landscape and the Dauner Maare, a group of crater lakes formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. The surrounding countryside attracts hikers, cyclists and visitors looking for a quiet stay in nature. Daun also has a long tradition as a spa and health resort town, which adds to its calm, restorative character.

Since the town sits in hilly terrain, you should tell your driver the exact address or hotel name when you book so the final stretch is straightforward, especially if your accommodation is outside the centre.
