Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Saint-Denis

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Saint-Denis

The route covers 71 km (45 miles) and usually takes around 52 minutes by road. Most of the trip is on motorway, heading south-west away from the Brussels area, before the final stretch on smaller local roads into the village. Saint-Denis is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late-afternoon rush, when the ring road around Brussels and the approach to the airport can slow down noticeably. Heavy rain or winter weather can also add some minutes, so it is sensible not to plan a tight connection straight after arrival.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on the size of your group and how much luggage you bring:

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) suits solo travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) gives a group of four a little more seating flexibility.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats and 16 Seats work well for larger families, friends travelling together or small business teams with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats are intended for tour groups, wedding parties, school trips and company events.

If you are travelling with bulky items such as sports equipment, prams or several large suitcases, choose the next size up so everyone rides comfortably.

About Saint-Denis

Saint-Denis is a small village in the Hainaut province of Wallonia, in the Mons area. It has a quiet, rural character, so expect countryside surroundings rather than a busy urban centre. Because it is a small place, it helps to have the exact street address ready for your driver, especially if your accommodation is on a minor road.
