Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ortho

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Ortho

The route from Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ortho covers 391 km (243 miles) and typically takes 4 h 4 m by road. That is a long transfer, so it helps to plan it as part of your journey rather than a quick hop. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels, or in winter, when weather can slow traffic on roads in the Ardennes. A private transfer lets you sit back after your flight instead of working out connections with luggage. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Vehicle choice depends mainly on group size and luggage. For solo travellers, couples and small families, you can book a private taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. The 1-4 option gives a little more room if you are carrying several bags.

• Private Minibus 8 Seats: suits groups of up to 8 and families with extra luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats: a good fit for larger family gatherings or small teams.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats: intended for bigger parties, such as wedding guests, tour groups or company outings, with seats for up to 48 passengers.

On a drive of around four hours, a little extra space makes a noticeable difference, so it is worth choosing a size up if your group is close to a vehicle's limit.

About Ortho

Ortho is a small village in the Belgian Ardennes, in the province of Luxembourg and part of the municipality of La Roche-en-Ardenne. The surroundings are wooded and hilly, which makes the area popular with visitors who come for walking, cycling and a quiet break away from the cities. As it is a rural destination, it is a good idea to have the exact address of your accommodation ready when you book, so that your driver can take you right to the door.

Meeting Point
