Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Gompel

The drive from Brussels Airport to Gompel

The route covers 98 km (61 miles) and normally takes about 1 h 10 m. That is a fair distance for a transfer, so having a driver waiting after a flight saves you from working out connections with luggage in hand. Gompel is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route from the airport.

Allow extra time if you travel during weekday morning or evening rush hours, when traffic around Brussels slows down. Heavy rain, fog or winter weather can also add minutes to the journey. If you have a tight appointment on arrival, build in a comfortable buffer.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle should match your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 or 32 Seats: practical for company teams, school trips and wedding parties.
• Private Minibus 40 or 48 Seats: for large tour groups and events, with room for everyone in one vehicle.

Pick the smallest vehicle that still gives everyone a seat and space for their luggage. For a drive of over an hour, that makes the ride more comfortable.

About Gompel

Gompel is a small place in the Kempen (Campine) region of northern Belgium. The landscape there is typically flat, with woodland, heath and quiet rural roads. It is a calm setting rather than a busy tourist centre, so the exact address you give us matters. Please send the full street name and house number so the driver can take you straight to the door.

Meeting Point

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