Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Dikkele

The drive from Brussels Airport to Dikkele

Dikkele lies 64 km (40 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey normally takes around 50 minutes. The route leads you out of the Brussels region and into the countryside of East Flanders, so the last part of the trip is usually calmer than the start. Dikkele is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hour, when the roads around Brussels are busiest. Bad weather can also slow the trip down. If you have a connecting appointment or an early check-in, it is sensible to plan a small buffer on top of the usual driving time.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on the size of your group and how much luggage you carry:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: practical for wedding parties, sports teams, and company groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for large groups, events, and coach-style travel with everyone in one vehicle.

If your party is close to the limit of a vehicle, choose the next size up so everyone has room for their luggage.

About Dikkele

Dikkele is a small village in the municipality of Zwalm in East Flanders, within the hilly Flemish Ardennes region. It is a quiet rural setting with fields, farmland, and country lanes, and it is a good base for walking and cycling. Visitors usually come to see family, attend local events, or enjoy the surrounding countryside rather than for big-city sights. Because the village is small, it helps to have the full street address ready when you book, so the driver can take you directly to the door.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits for you at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go there straight from the baggage hall.
