Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Merbes-Sainte-Marie

Meeting Point at Brussels Zaventem Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can meet up without searching the terminal.

The Drive from BRU to Merbes-Sainte-Marie

The route covers 81 km (50 miles) and typically takes 1 h 4 m. Most of the journey is on Belgian motorways, followed by smaller regional roads as you approach the village. Weekday mornings and late afternoons are the busiest times around Brussels, so it is sensible to add some buffer if you have a tight appointment or an onward connection. Heavy rain or roadworks can also lengthen the trip a little.

Because this is a less frequently booked route, it is arranged on request, as with every other transfer. Your driver knows the way and handles navigation, so you can rest after your flight.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you bring:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, small families and business guests.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for a larger family or a group with extra suitcases.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: practical for wedding parties, club outings and company teams.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: intended for large groups that want to travel together in one vehicle.

If your group is close to a size limit, choose the next category up so everyone has room for their bags.
