Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Eizeringen

The drive from Brussels Airport to Eizeringen

Eizeringen lies 32 km (20 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive usually takes around 30 minutes. The route leaves the airport area and heads towards the southwest of Brussels, so most of the journey is on the Brussels ring road and the main roads beyond it. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours on the ring can add noticeable time, as can bad weather. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting plan after landing, it is sensible to allow a buffer. This route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request like any other, and your driver takes you directly to the address you give.

Choosing the right vehicle

For couples, solo travellers and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option. There are taxis for up to 3 passengers and for up to 4 passengers, so pick the larger one if you are travelling with several suitcases or a child seat. Larger parties, such as wedding guests, a sports team or a company group, can book a private minibus. Minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which lets you keep everyone on a single vehicle. Choose a size that leaves some room for luggage rather than filling every seat.

About Eizeringen

Eizeringen is a small village in the municipality of Lennik, in the province of Flemish Brabant. It sits in the Pajottenland, a rural area of fields and gentle hills southwest of Brussels. Expect a quiet, residential setting rather than a busy town centre. Because it is a small place with narrow local roads, it helps to give your driver the exact street address or a clear landmark when you book.

Meeting point at the airport

Your driver waits for you at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage. Head there after baggage claim and look for your name on the sign.
