Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ghislenghien

The drive from Brussels Airport to Ghislenghien

Ghislenghien lies 70 km (44 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 49 minutes. The route leaves the airport area, passes around the Brussels region and continues west into the province of Hainaut. This is an occasionally booked route, so a pre-arranged private transfer is a practical way to avoid searching for a ride on arrival. Morning and late-afternoon traffic around Brussels can slow the first part of the trip, so allow some extra time if you have a meeting or a fixed check-in.

Choosing the right vehicle

Eight vehicle types are available, depending on the size of your group and your luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) or Private Taxi (1-4 passengers): suited to individual travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats and 16 Seats: for larger families, work teams or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for conference delegations, tour groups and company transport where everyone should arrive together.

If you are close to the limit of a vehicle, choose the next size up so that luggage fits comfortably.

Ghislenghien as a destination

Ghislenghien is a small village in the municipality of Ath, in Hainaut, in the French-speaking part of Belgium. It is known mainly for its business and industrial park, which makes it a common destination for work trips, supplier visits and corporate events. The surrounding countryside is quiet and rural, and the road network is simple to follow once you leave the Brussels area.

Planning your journey

Because Ghislenghien is made up of business premises as well as residential streets, it helps to have the exact address of your destination ready when you book. This lets the driver plan the final approach and avoid delays at the end of the trip. If you travel with colleagues, agree on a single arrival point in advance so the whole group can be dropped off together.
