Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Opgrimbie

The drive from Brussels Airport to Opgrimbie

Opgrimbie lies 103 km (65 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey normally takes about 1 h 4 m. The route heads east out of the Brussels area towards the province of Limburg, so most of the trip is on motorway. Opgrimbie is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route. Traffic around Brussels can slow the first part of the journey during the morning and evening rush hours. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting departure, add a buffer to the standard driving time.

Choosing the right vehicle

For couples, families and small groups, a private taxi is the simplest choice. There is a version for up to 3 passengers and one for up to 4 passengers, so check your luggage as well as your headcount. Larger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. Minibuses suit family gatherings, sports teams, wedding guests and company groups who want to arrive together and not split across several cars. Over a drive of just over an hour, having enough space for people and bags makes a real difference.

It is a quiet, mostly residential place surrounded by green countryside.
