Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to La Gage

The Drive from Brussels Airport to La Gage

The transfer covers 425 km (265 miles), and the typical driving time is 4 h 32 m. That is a long ride, so it helps to plan it as a proper journey rather than a quick hop. Allow extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours around Brussels, on Friday afternoons, or at the start and end of school holidays, when motorways tend to fill up. Your driver can stop briefly on the way if someone in the group needs a break, so mention it when you book. This route is booked less often than the big city connections, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For a long distance like this, space matters. Couples and small families fit comfortably in a private taxi for 1-3 passengers, and the 1-4 passenger taxi gives a little more room for a fourth traveller or extra luggage. Larger parties can choose a private minibus with 8 seats. For groups, there are minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so even a full coach-sized party can travel together in a single vehicle. Choose by the number of people and the amount of luggage, and go one size up if you are carrying bulky items such as sports gear or several suitcases each.

About La Gage

La Gage is a small destination, so it is worth sending your exact address or the name of your accommodation before the trip. That way the driver can plan the final stretch of the route properly, especially if the last part of the journey is on smaller local roads. Keep a phone number of your host or hotel handy in case the arrival time shifts.
