Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Hillegom

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Hillegom

The route covers 200 km (125 miles) and typically takes 2 h 13 m. You leave Belgium by motorway, cross into the Netherlands and continue north through South Holland. Hillegom is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other. Allow some extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hour, as the stretches around the larger Dutch and Belgian cities can slow down. Weekends in the spring flower season can also be busier than usual near the bulb region.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller parties are well served by a private taxi, with one option for up to 3 passengers and another for up to 4. Larger groups can choose a private minibus:

• 8 seats for up to 8 passengers
• 16 seats for up to 16 passengers
• 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats for tour parties, clubs and larger delegations

On a journey of more than two hours, it pays to pick a vehicle with a little spare room for luggage, especially if you travel with a group.
