Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Herenthout

The drive from Zaventem to Herenthout

The route covers 49 km (31 miles) and typically takes around 49 minutes by road. Herenthout lies in the province of Antwerp, so the journey leaves the Brussels area and heads north-east into the Flemish countryside. Morning and evening rush hours around Brussels can add time, as can bad weather, so it is sensible to allow a buffer if you have a flight to catch or an appointment on arrival. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers is the simple choice. Pick the four-passenger option if a fourth person is travelling or you have extra luggage. Larger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which keeps everyone together in one vehicle. This suits wedding guests, company groups, sports teams or family gatherings arriving on the same flight. Please state the number of passengers and bags when you book so the vehicle matches your group.

About Herenthout

Herenthout is a small municipality in the province of Antwerp, in Flanders, close to the larger town of Herentals. It is a quiet, largely residential place on the edge of the Kempen region, with green surroundings rather than big-city sights. Because the destination is small, give the full street address when booking so the driver can take you directly to the door.
