Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Overslag

The drive from BRU to Overslag

Overslag lies 79 km (50 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport. The journey usually takes about 53 minutes. The route heads west across Flanders towards the Ghent area. Weekday rush hours around Brussels and Ghent can slow traffic, so it is sensible to add a buffer if you have a tight schedule, such as a morning appointment or a connecting journey.

Choosing the right vehicle

For couples, families and small groups, a private taxi is available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Choose the larger option if you travel with several suitcases or a child seat. Bigger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. This works well for wedding guests, company teams, sports clubs and family gatherings that want to arrive together.
