Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Fourmies

The drive from Brussels Airport to Fourmies

Fourmies lies 134 km (84 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 1 h 54 m. The route leaves the Brussels area and heads south across Wallonia towards the French border and the Avesnois region. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other transfer, and your driver covers the whole distance without changes.

Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late-afternoon rush around Brussels, as the ring road can slow the first part of the trip. Bad weather and roadworks can also add to the journey. If you need to reach an appointment or a connection in Fourmies at a fixed time, plan a buffer on top of the standard duration.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have:

• Private Taxi for 1 to 4 passengers, suited to individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats for up to 8 passengers, useful when a group brings extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats for larger family gatherings, teams or business groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats for coach-sized groups, such as tour parties, school trips or event delegations.

If you are unsure, choose the next size up when the group is close to a vehicle's limit, so everyone has room for luggage.
