Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Florée

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Florée

Florée lies 82 km (51 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive normally takes around 54 minutes. The route heads south-east across Belgium towards the province of Namur, so most of the journey is on motorway before you reach quieter country roads near the village. Allow extra time during the weekday morning and late-afternoon rush around Brussels, and when the weather is poor. The route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request like any other.

Meeting Point

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

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller groups are well served by a private taxi: one version seats 1-3 passengers and another seats 1-4, which gives a little more room for bags. For larger parties, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. This suits family gatherings, wedding guests, company groups and organised tours heading to the Namur countryside, where onward public transport is limited. If you travel with a lot of luggage, pick the next size up so everyone sits comfortably.

Florée and Where to Stay

Florée is a small rural village in the municipality of Assesse, in the Walloon province of Namur. It is known for its green surroundings and peaceful setting rather than for big sights, which makes it a base for quiet walks and for exploring the Namur region by car. Accommodation in the village itself is limited, so many visitors stay in Namur, the nearest larger town, a short drive away. Two established options there are:

• Hôtel Les Tanneurs, a hotel in Namur's old town
• Château de Namur, a hotel set in the grounds of the Citadel

Ask your driver to confirm the exact drop-off address in advance, as rural addresses can be tricky to find. Sharing the full address and a phone number when you book helps the driver get you to your door without delay.
