Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ledeberg

The drive from Brussels Airport to Ledeberg

The transfer covers 64 km (40 miles) and usually takes about 42 minutes. The route heads west from Zaventem towards Ghent, and Ledeberg lies on the south-eastern side of the city. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Weekday rush hours around Brussels and Ghent can add time, so allow a little extra if you have a tight appointment or a connection to make.

Choosing the right vehicle

For smaller parties there are two private taxi options: one for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. The 4-passenger taxi suits a family or colleagues travelling with moderate luggage. Larger groups can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. That covers anything from a family reunion to a wedding party or a company delegation arriving together. If you have a lot of suitcases or sports equipment, it is worth choosing the next size up for comfort.

Ledeberg as a destination

Ledeberg is a district of Ghent in East Flanders. It is a mostly residential, lively urban area, home to a mix of communities, and it sits close to the city centre. That makes it a practical base for visiting Ghent. Ledeberg itself has few well-known hotels, so the places to stay below are in Ghent, the nearest city:

• Hotel Gravensteen, a historic townhouse hotel near the centre.
• NH Gent Belfort, located close to the Belfry and the main sights.
• Ghent Marriott Hotel, a well-known hotel by the Ghent waterfront.

Let your driver know the exact address when you book, so the drop-off goes smoothly whether you stay in Ledeberg or elsewhere in Ghent.
