Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Heusden

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can head straight there once you are through the arrivals hall.

The Drive to Heusden

The route covers 137 km (86 miles) and typically takes 1 h 33 m. It runs north from Zaventem across the Belgian border into the Dutch province of North Brabant. Heavy traffic around Brussels and Antwerp during the morning and evening rush hours can stretch the journey. Allow extra time if you have a tight connection or an appointment shortly after arrival. Heusden is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

A private taxi suits smaller parties: there are options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, with room for typical luggage. Larger families and groups can book a private minibus with 8 or 16 seats. For tour parties, wedding guests or company outings, minibuses with 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats are available. Choose by the total number of travellers and bags, and pick the next size up if you carry bulky luggage.

Heusden as a Destination

Heusden is a small fortified town on the Maas river in North Brabant. It is known for its restored historic centre, with cobbled streets, a harbour and traditional windmills. It is a calm place, popular for walks and short stays, and it lies close to the larger city of 's-Hertogenbosch.

Places to Stay Nearby

Accommodation in Heusden itself is limited, so many visitors stay in the nearby city of 's-Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch). Well-known options there include Golden Tulip Hotel Central and Mercure Hotel Den Bosch. Both are close to the city centre. Give your driver the full address of your hotel or accommodation when booking, so the drop-off is exact.
