Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Oostwinkel

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Oostwinkel

Oostwinkel is 94 km (59 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive typically takes 1 h 5 m. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons, when the Brussels ring road and the motorways towards Ghent are at their busiest. A private transfer means you travel door to door, with no changes and no need to coordinate onward connections in a rural area.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 Seats: for wedding parties, company groups, sports teams, and organised tours.

If you are travelling with bulky luggage, choose the next size up for more space.

About Oostwinkel

Oostwinkel is a small village in East Flanders, part of the municipality of Zomergem. The surroundings are quiet and rural, with flat farmland and country lanes typical of the region between Ghent and Bruges. Visitors usually come to see family, attend local events, or explore the countryside, and the area has few large hotels of its own.

Where to Stay Nearby

Oostwinkel itself has very limited accommodation, so many visitors stay in Ghent, the nearest larger city. Well-known options there include the Marriott Ghent Hotel, Hotel Gravensteen, and the Novotel Gent Centrum. Tell us your hotel address when booking so the transfer can be arranged to the right place.
