Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Nederbrakel

The drive from Brussels Airport to Nederbrakel

Nederbrakel lies about 64 km (40 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive typically takes around 59 minutes. The route leads you away from the airport area, around the Brussels ring and then southwest into the countryside of East Flanders. Nederbrakel is not a frequently booked destination, but this transfer is available on request like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late afternoon rush, when the Brussels ring road is often busy. A delay around the capital can easily add to the 59 minutes. If you have a flight to catch from Nederbrakel, it is sensible to plan a comfortable buffer.

Which vehicle suits your group

For individual travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice. It is available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, so check which one fits your party and luggage.

Larger groups can choose a private minibus. The options are:

• 8 seats for small groups travelling with extra luggage
• 16 seats for family gatherings or a wedding party
• 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats for tour groups, clubs, company outings and larger events

A vehicle with a little spare capacity is worth considering if you are carrying bulky bags or sports equipment.
