Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Fontaine-l’Eveque

The drive from Brussels Airport to Fontaine-l’Eveque

The route covers 79 km (49 miles) and typically takes about 53 minutes by road. Most of the journey leads south from Zaventem into the province of Hainaut, so the final stretch is quieter than the start. The busiest part is usually around Brussels itself. If you travel at morning or late-afternoon rush hour, or in heavy rain or snow, it is sensible to allow some extra time, especially when you have a train or appointment to catch afterwards.

This route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request just like any other. You ride in a private vehicle, door to door, with no shared stops along the way.

Choosing the right vehicle

The size of your group and your luggage decide which vehicle fits best:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good choice for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: for team trips, wedding parties and mid-sized tour groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for coach-sized groups, school trips, conferences and company events.

If you are unsure whether everyone and everything will fit, choose the next size up. Luggage often takes more space than people expect.

About Fontaine-l’Eveque

Fontaine-l’Eveque is a municipality in the province of Hainaut, in Wallonia, close to the city of Charleroi. It is a mainly residential area rather than a major tourist hub, which makes a private transfer a practical way to arrive. Public transport options from the airport are limited, and a direct car saves you from planning connections with luggage. Please give the driver the full street address when you book, so the drop-off goes smoothly.

Meeting Point
