Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Saint-Jean-Geest

The drive from Brussels Airport to Saint-Jean-Geest

The route covers 48 km (30 miles) and typically takes around 34 minutes. Most of the journey heads southeast out of the Brussels area and into the quieter countryside of Walloon Brabant. Saint-Jean-Geest is a less frequently requested destination, but a transfer here is arranged like any other and is available on request.

Travel times can stretch during the weekday morning and late afternoon rush around Brussels, so it is sensible to allow some extra time if you have a connection, an appointment or a check-in slot at the other end. Bad weather in winter can also slow the final stretch on smaller roads.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle choice depends on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, small families and business trips.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable option for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 Seats: intended for wedding parties, school or sports groups, and company events travelling together to the area.

If you are close to the limit of a vehicle, picking the next size up leaves more room for suitcases and makes the ride more relaxed.
