Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Rumes

The drive from Brussels Airport to Rumes

Rumes lies 117 km (73 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive usually takes about 1 h 21 m. You travel across Belgium from the Flemish Brabant area towards the Hainaut province and the French border. Because the route runs through the Brussels region, the trip can take longer at weekday rush hours, so it is wise to allow some extra time if you have a connection or appointment at the other end. The route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request just like any other.

Choosing the right vehicle

Smaller parties are well served by a private taxi. There is a version for up to 3 passengers and one for up to 4 passengers, which gives a little more room for luggage when you travel as a family or with colleagues. For larger groups we offer private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, so a wedding party, a sports team or a company outing can travel together in one vehicle. Choose the size that matches your group plus luggage, and everyone arrives at the same time.

Rumes and where to stay nearby

Rumes is a small, quiet municipality in Hainaut, in the Walloon countryside close to the French border. It is mainly a rural, residential place, and most visitors come to see family, to enjoy the surrounding farmland or to explore the wider Tournai area. Rumes itself has little in the way of well-known hotels, so for accommodation we point you to the nearest larger town, Tournai. Established options there include:

• Mercure Tournai
• Van der Valk Hotel Tournai
• Hotel Cathédrale

Your driver can take you straight to the address of your choice, whether it is a hotel in Tournai or a private home in Rumes.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there after baggage reclaim and start your journey without delay.
