Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Lahamaide

The drive from Brussels Airport to Lahamaide

Lahamaide lies 81 km (50 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive typically takes around 57 minutes. It is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Allow some extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours, when the roads around Brussels are busy, or in poor weather. The final part of the journey leads through quiet country roads, so a calm, unhurried arrival is the norm once you leave the motorway behind.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle you pick depends mostly on group size and luggage. For couples, small families or business travellers, a private taxi is the simplest option, with versions for 1-3 passengers and 1-4 passengers. Larger parties can choose a private minibus:

• 8 seats for a group of friends or an extended family with suitcases
• 16 and 24 seats for wedding guests, club outings or small company groups
• 32, 40 and 48 seats for large events, tours and organised group trips

If you are travelling with bulky luggage, sports equipment or a pushchair, it is worth going one size up so everyone rides comfortably.

About Lahamaide

Lahamaide is a small village in the municipality of Ellezelles, in the province of Hainaut. It sits in the hilly Pays des Collines, close to the Flemish border, an area known for its rolling countryside, woods and footpaths. Expect a peaceful rural setting rather than a busy town. Because village addresses can be tricky for navigation systems, it helps to have the exact street name and house number ready for your driver before you set off.
