Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Gijzenzele

The Drive from BRU to Gijzenzele

The route covers 54 km (34 miles) and typically takes about 37 minutes. Gijzenzele is not a high-traffic destination for transfers, so this route is mainly booked on request. That makes it worth arranging in advance rather than expecting a standard daily service.

The journey leads west from the airport towards East Flanders. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours around Brussels and Ghent can add time, so allow a buffer if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller groups are well served by a private taxi. There are options for 1-3 passengers and for 1-4 passengers, which suits couples, families or business travellers with standard luggage.

• Private Minibus 8 Seats: small groups or families with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats: mid-sized parties, such as wedding guests or a team.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats: larger groups, events and organised tours travelling together.

If you are travelling with bulky items such as sports equipment or several large suitcases, choose the next size up for extra space.

About Gijzenzele

Gijzenzele is a small village in East Flanders, part of the municipality of Oosterzele, in the countryside between Ghent and Oudenaarde. It is a quiet, rural setting rather than a tourist centre. Most visitors come to see family, attend local events or stay in the surrounding Flemish countryside. For that reason, give your driver the exact street address, as small villages can be hard to find by name alone.
