Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Opitter

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Opitter

The route covers 108 km (68 miles) and typically takes 1 h 17 m. It leads from Zaventem eastwards into the province of Limburg, so you travel almost the full width of Flanders. Opitter is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hours, when the roads around Brussels and Leuven are busiest. Bad weather can also lengthen the journey. If you have a tight onward appointment, plan a small buffer on top of the usual driving time.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle should match the size of your group and the amount of luggage you carry:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: works well for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: a good fit for mid-sized groups, teams and family gatherings.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: intended for large parties, such as tour groups or event guests, who want to travel together.

If you are unsure which option fits, choose the next size up when you carry bulky luggage such as sports equipment or large suitcases.
