Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Hoogeveen

The drive from Brussels Airport to Hoogeveen

Hoogeveen lies 296 km (184 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey normally takes around 3 h 12 m. The route leaves Belgium northward and crosses the Netherlands to the province of Drenthe. That makes it a long transfer, so a door-to-door car is much simpler than a journey with several connections and luggage. Hoogeveen is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but we arrange it on request just like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hours, when the roads around Brussels, Antwerp and the Dutch motorway network can slow down. Bad weather and holiday weekends can also lengthen a journey of this distance. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch in Hoogeveen, build in a comfortable margin.

Which vehicle suits your group

For smaller parties there are two taxi options: a Private Taxi for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. The larger one is the better choice when four people travel with several suitcases. Families, business colleagues and couples will all find these comfortable over three hours on the road.

Larger groups can book a Private Minibus. The 8-seat version suits extended families or small teams. For bigger parties there are minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 seats. Typical examples are company events, sports clubs and tour groups, who can all travel together instead of splitting into several cars. Pick the size by passenger count and by how much luggage you carry.
