Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Gembes

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House in Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU), holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage.

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Gembes

Gembes lies 126 km (79 miles) from the airport, and the journey normally takes about 1 h 25 m. The route leaves the Brussels area and heads south-east towards the Ardennes. The last stretch runs on smaller roads through woods and villages, so the final kilometres feel slower than the motorway part.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels, when the ring road and the main approach roads can be busy. In winter, fog or snow in the Ardennes can also slow the last part of the trip. A private transfer lets you travel on your own schedule, with no connections to plan around.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: works for larger families or friends travelling with extra luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: fit group holidays, family gatherings, and wedding parties.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: cover large groups, clubs, and organised events.

This route is booked less often than the busiest airport transfers, but it is available on request in every vehicle category. Book ahead so the right vehicle is ready for your group.

About Gembes
