Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Rijkevorsel

The drive from Zaventem to Rijkevorsel

Rijkevorsel lies 77 km (48 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 55 minutes. The route leads north-east out of the Brussels area and into the province of Antwerp, finishing on quieter local roads in the Kempen region. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, so you can arrange it ahead of your arrival.

The 55 minutes assume normal traffic. Roads around Brussels and Antwerp can slow down noticeably during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours, so if you have a tight appointment at the other end, it is sensible to add a buffer. Heavy rain or roadworks can also add time, and your driver will choose the best way round on the day.

Which vehicle suits your group

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice. It comes in two versions: one for up to 3 passengers and one for up to 4. Think about luggage as well as headcount: if everyone has a large suitcase, take the larger option.

Larger groups can book a private minibus. The available sizes are:

• 8 seats for up to 8 passengers
• 16 seats for up to 16 passengers
• 24 seats for up to 24 passengers
• 32 seats for up to 32 passengers
• 40 seats for up to 40 passengers
• 48 seats for up to 48 passengers

This range suits family gatherings, wedding parties, sports clubs, school trips and company groups travelling together. Everyone arrives at the same time, with no need to split up or coordinate several cars.

About Rijkevorsel

Rijkevorsel is a small municipality in the province of Antwerp, in the Kempen area close to the Dutch border. The surroundings are mostly flat and green, with a calm, rural feel that is very different from the busy airport you are leaving behind. A private transfer is a practical way to get here, because a door-to-door ride avoids the transfers that a trip to a smaller place would otherwise involve. Please give your driver the full address when booking so the drop-off is exact.

Meeting Point
