Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Gijzelbrechtegem

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Gijzelbrechtegem

The route covers 95 km (59 miles) and typically takes 1 h 9 m. Most of the journey is on motorway, heading west from Zaventem across Flanders. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hours, when the Brussels ring road and the main roads towards West Flanders can slow down. Bad weather can also add minutes, especially in winter. Gijzelbrechtegem is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House in Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage. Simply walk over and look for your name.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller parties are well served by a private taxi, with options for up to 3 or up to 4 passengers. For larger groups, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. This makes the route practical for families with luggage, business teams, wedding parties or organised groups. Pick the vehicle by the number of travellers in your party, and consider a size up if you carry a lot of bags.
