Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Hour

The Drive from BRU to Hour

The route covers 751 km (467 miles) and typically takes 7 h 39 m by road. That is a long journey, so it helps to plan it as a proper trip rather than a quick hop. Allow extra time if you travel on a Friday afternoon, at the start or end of school holidays, or in poor winter weather, as traffic around busy stretches can add noticeable delays. Your driver handles the route and the breaks, so you can rest, work or simply enjoy the scenery.

Because this is a less frequently booked route, it is arranged on request like any other. It is worth booking well ahead so the right vehicle is ready when you land.

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.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For small groups, a private taxi is the simplest option: one version seats 1-3 passengers and another seats 1-4 passengers. On a journey of this length, the extra legroom and luggage space are worth considering if you are travelling with several suitcases.

Larger parties can choose from a range of private minibuses:

• Minibus 8 Seats for 1-8 passengers, suited to families or small groups with luggage
• Minibus 16 Seats for 1-16 passengers
• Minibus 24 Seats for 1-24 passengers
• Minibus 32 Seats for 1-32 passengers
• Minibus 40 Seats and 48 Seats for 1-40 and 1-48 passengers, ideal for large tour groups, clubs or events

If your group sits close to a vehicle's limit, choose the next size up. Over almost eight hours, a little extra space makes the trip far more comfortable.

About Hour

Hour is a small village in the Belgian province of Namur, in the Wallonia region. It belongs to the municipality of Houyet and lies in a green, hilly area known for its rural character and its closeness to the Lesse valley. Expect a quiet setting rather than a busy town centre. It is a good idea to keep the exact pickup or drop-off address handy, since small villages can have narrow roads and similar-looking street names.
