Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Eeklo

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Eeklo

The transfer covers 87 km (54 miles) and typically takes 1 h 6 m. The route heads west across Flanders, passing the Brussels ring and the Ghent area before reaching Eeklo. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours around Brussels and Ghent can slow things down, so allow some extra time if you have a connection, an appointment or a check-in deadline. Eeklo is booked only occasionally from the airport, so a private transfer is a simple way to avoid planning a route with several connections.

Meeting Point at Brussels 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

Smaller parties can choose a private taxi, either for 1-3 or for 1-4 passengers. The 1-4 option gives a little more room when you travel with several suitcases. Larger groups can book a private minibus:

• 8 seats for families or small teams
• 16 and 24 seats for wedding parties, clubs or business groups
• 32, 40 and 48 seats for large tour groups and organised events

Pick the vehicle by the total number of passengers and the amount of luggage you carry.

About Eeklo

Eeklo is a town in East Flanders, in the Meetjesland region between Ghent and Bruges. Dutch is the local language. It has a traditional market square and a calm, small-town atmosphere. It suits visitors who want a quieter base in the Flemish countryside, within reach of larger cities.

Places to Stay Near Eeklo

I cannot confidently name well-known hotels in Eeklo itself, so these suggestions are in Ghent, the nearest major city. Ghent offers a wide choice of established accommodation:

• Marriott Ghent Hotel, on the Korenlei by the river
• Hotel Gravensteen, a historic townhouse hotel in the centre
• NH Gent Belfort, close to the medieval city sights
