Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Oosteeklo

The drive from Brussels Airport to Oosteeklo

Oosteeklo lies 94 km (59 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive normally takes about 1 h 2 m. The route heads west and north-west across Flanders towards the Dutch border, so most of the journey is on motorway before you switch to smaller local roads for the final stretch. Because this is a less frequently booked route, it is arranged on request, like any other transfer. Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late afternoon rush around Brussels and Ghent, or in poor weather, when the motorway can slow down noticeably.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on group size and luggage. Two taxi options cover smaller parties:

• Private Taxi for 1-3 passengers or 1-4 passengers, suited to individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats for groups of up to 8, a good choice when you have a lot of luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats for larger families, wedding parties or teams.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats for big groups, events and organised tours, up to 48 passengers.

With a transfer of just over an hour, it is worth choosing a vehicle with a little spare space rather than filling every seat. Everyone then has room for coats and bags.

Oosteeklo as a destination

Oosteeklo is a small village in East Flanders, in the flat countryside close to the Dutch border. It is quiet and rural, with fields, polders and small roads, so it suits visitors who are seeing family or friends, or who want a calm base away from the larger cities. Since it is a small place, it helps to have the exact street address ready when you book, so the driver can take you to the right door.
