Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Oud-Rekem

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Oud-Rekem

Oud-Rekem lies 105 km (66 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey normally takes about 1 h 9 m. Most of the way is on major roads, so the time is fairly predictable outside busy periods. Weekday morning and late-afternoon traffic around Brussels can slow the start of the trip, so add a buffer if you have a tight onward plan or a fixed appointment. This route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request, and your driver will know the way.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For couples, solo travellers and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice, with options for up to 3 or up to 4 passengers. Bear in mind that luggage takes space, so if you are four people with large suitcases, consider stepping up a size. Larger groups can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. That covers anything from a family reunion to a wedding party, a coach-sized tour group or a company outing, all travelling together in one vehicle to the same door.

About Oud-Rekem

Oud-Rekem is a small village in the Belgian province of Limburg, close to the Meuse and the Dutch border. It is best known for its carefully preserved historic centre, with old stone buildings and quiet cobbled streets that make it popular for a peaceful day out or a short stay. Because it is small, tell us the exact address or the name of the place you are heading to when you book, so the driver can plan the final approach and drop you as close as possible.
