Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Kleve

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Kleve

The route covers 254 km (158 miles) and typically takes 2 h 55 m. It leads north-east across Belgium and the southern Netherlands before reaching the Lower Rhine region near the Dutch border. Kleve is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other. Motorway traffic around Brussels and Antwerp can slow the first part of the trip, especially at rush hour, so allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment or a connecting booking in Kleve.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For one to four passengers, a Private Taxi is the simplest option. Larger parties can choose from several minibus sizes:

• Private Minibus 8 Seats for families or small business groups with luggage
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats for mid-sized teams or tour parties
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats for large groups, delegations and events

On a journey of almost three hours, a little extra space is worth having, so pick a vehicle that gives everyone room for their bags.
