Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ruddervoorde

The drive from Brussels Airport to Ruddervoorde

The route covers 108 km (68 miles) and typically takes 1 h 14 m. It is a westbound drive across Flanders, ending in the countryside just outside Bruges. Ruddervoorde is booked less often than the big city routes, but it is available on request like any other destination. Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or evening rush, when traffic around Brussels can slow the first part of the trip. A private transfer takes you from the terminal to the address without changes along the way.

Ruddervoorde as a destination

Ruddervoorde is a village in West Flanders, part of the municipality of Oostkamp and close to Bruges. The setting is quiet and rural, with a few shops and local cafés. Most visitors come to see family, attend a local event, or use it as a calm base for exploring the Bruges area.

Where to stay nearby

Ruddervoorde itself is small, so many travellers choose accommodation in nearby Bruges, a short drive away. Well-known, long-established options there include Hotel Die Swaene, Hotel de Orangerie and Hotel Dukes' Palace. Give your driver the exact address of your hotel or private accommodation when you book, so the transfer ends at the right door.
