Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Linz am Rhein

The drive from Brussels Airport to Linz am Rhein

The route covers 261 km (163 miles) and typically takes 2 h 52 m, crossing from Belgium into Germany and ending on the Rhine. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. A private transfer means one continuous journey from the airport to your address, with no changes and no luggage to carry between connections. Allow some extra time if you travel during rush hours, on public holidays or in poor weather, since these can stretch the usual driving time. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection in Linz am Rhein, plan a comfortable buffer.

Choosing the right vehicle for your group

For individuals, couples and families of up to four, the private taxi is the straightforward choice. Larger parties can travel together in a private minibus with 8 or 16 seats, which leaves room for suitcases and sports or hobby equipment. For tour groups, school trips, company outings or wedding parties, minibuses with 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats are available, so everyone arrives together. Choose the size according to your group and the amount of luggage rather than just the headcount.

Linz am Rhein as a destination

Linz am Rhein is a small town on the right bank of the Rhine in Rhineland-Palatinate, known for its well-preserved old town with half-timbered houses and its historic town hall on the market square. It is a quiet base for walks along the river, visits to the surrounding Rhine valley and day trips to nearby towns. The old town centre is compact and best explored on foot, so tell your driver the exact address in advance if your accommodation sits in a pedestrian area.

Meeting Point

After you collect your luggage, head to Java Coffee House, which is easy to find inside the airport. Your driver waits there with a personalised name sign, so you can spot them straight away.
