Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Malderen

The Drive from Zaventem to Malderen

Malderen lies 33 km (21 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the trip usually takes around 32 minutes. Most of the route runs on the motorway network north-west of the airport before switching to local roads for the final stretch into the village. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other transfer. Brussels traffic is the main variable: on weekday mornings and late afternoons the ring road around the capital can slow things down, so it is sensible to add some buffer if you have a fixed appointment at the other end.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you pick depends mainly on the size of your group and how much luggage you carry.

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) suits solo travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) gives a little more room for a group of four with bags.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats works for larger families or friends travelling together.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats cover wedding parties, sports teams and small business groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats are intended for large groups, events and organised tours.

If your group sits close to a size limit, choose the next vehicle up so that everyone and their luggage travel comfortably.

About Malderen

Malderen is a small village in the municipality of Londerzeel, in the Flemish Brabant province of Belgium. It is a quiet, rural place with a local character, set in the countryside between Brussels and Mechelen. Because it is small, a door-to-door transfer is often the most straightforward way to arrive, particularly with luggage or late in the evening. Please have the exact street address ready when you book, so the driver can take you right to the front door.
