Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Niel-Bij-As

The drive from Brussels Airport to Niel-Bij-As

The route covers 97 km (61 miles) and usually takes about 1 h 3 m by road. That is a fair distance, so it helps to plan with some margin. Weekday mornings and late afternoons are the busiest periods on Belgian motorways, and heavy rain or roadworks can slow things down. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting journey in Niel-Bij-As, build in extra time rather than relying on the minimum.

This is a route that is booked less often than the main city transfers, but it is available on request like any other, with a private driver taking you directly from the airport to your address.

Which vehicle suits your group

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

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) or Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) suit individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats works for larger families or small groups with extra luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats fit teams, tour parties and wedding guests.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats are intended for large groups, such as school trips, clubs or company events.

If you are unsure, choose the next size up when you have bulky luggage such as sports equipment or several large suitcases.

About Niel-Bij-As

Niel-Bij-As is a village in the municipality of As, in the Belgian province of Limburg. It is a quiet, largely residential area rather than a busy tourist centre. Most visitors arrive to see family or friends, for local business, or to explore the surrounding Limburg countryside. Because it is small, it is a good idea to have the full street address ready when you book, so your driver can take you right to the door.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits for you at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there after baggage reclaim.
