Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Heerenveen

The drive from Brussels Airport to Heerenveen

The route covers 294 km (183 miles) and typically takes 3 h 8 m by road. Because the journey crosses the Belgian-Dutch border and passes through the busy Randstad region, it is worth allowing extra time during weekday rush hours, when traffic around Antwerp and the larger Dutch cities can slow things down. Heerenveen is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route, and your driver will plan the trip with the full journey time in mind.

Choosing the right vehicle

For smaller parties, a private taxi is available in two versions: one for up to 3 passengers and one for up to 4. Both suit couples, families or business travellers with a normal amount of luggage. Larger groups can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. This is useful for sports teams, company delegations, school groups or wedding parties travelling together. If you are bringing bulky items such as skates, sports bags or several large suitcases, pick the next size up so everyone rides in comfort over a journey of more than three hours.

About Heerenveen

Heerenveen is a town in the Dutch province of Friesland. It is best known for its sporting life: the football club SC Heerenveen plays here, and the Thialf ice stadium is one of the Netherlands' main venues for speed skating. The surrounding landscape is typical of Friesland, with open farmland, canals and lakes close by. A door-to-door transfer is practical for visitors heading to an event, a business appointment or a stay in the region, since it saves changing between several trains and buses with luggage.
