Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Krimpen aan den IJssel

Meeting Point at Brussels Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can meet without searching the terminal.

The Drive to Krimpen aan den IJssel

The route from Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) covers 140 km (87 miles) and typically takes 1 h 35 m. You leave Belgium and cross into the Netherlands, finishing in the Rotterdam region. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, and the trip is arranged as a private transfer from door to door.

Allow some extra time if you travel during the morning or late-afternoon rush hours. Traffic around the larger cities on the way, especially near Antwerp and Rotterdam, can slow the journey compared with the typical time. If you have a tight appointment at the destination, it is sensible to plan a small buffer.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, small families and business trips.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable choice for larger families or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: for teams, clubs and mid-sized groups travelling together.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: for large delegations, events and tour groups.

Choose the size by the number of passengers, and go one step up if you carry a lot of luggage.

Krimpen aan den IJssel and Where to Stay

Krimpen aan den IJssel is a residential town in South Holland, lying on the Hollandse IJssel river close to Rotterdam. It is a quiet place with a largely local character, and many visitors come here to see family, to work at nearby businesses or to use it as a calmer base outside the city.

I cannot name well-established hotels in Krimpen aan den IJssel itself with confidence. If you want a hotel, the nearest big city is Rotterdam, which is a short drive away and has several well-known options:

• Hotel New York, housed in the former Holland America Line headquarters on the Maas waterfront.
• Mainport Hotel, a design hotel near the river.
• Hilton Rotterdam, centrally located near the main shopping and business areas.
