Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Schagen

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House at Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

The Drive to Schagen

The route covers 261 km (163 miles) and typically takes 2 h 54 m. It leads north from Zaventem across the Belgian border and on into North Holland. Schagen is booked less often than the big Dutch cities, but the transfer is available on request like any other. Allow extra time if your trip falls in the weekday rush hours, as traffic around Antwerp and the Amsterdam area can slow things down. Bad weather can also add to the journey. A private transfer means a single door-to-door ride, without carrying bags between trains and buses.

Which Vehicle Fits Your Group

The vehicle 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: good for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: work well for teams, clubs and organised groups.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: intended for large groups, events and tour parties.

If you have bulky items such as sports equipment or many suitcases, pick a size up so everyone rides comfortably on the nearly three-hour journey.

Schagen and Where to Stay Nearby

Schagen is a town in the north of North Holland, in the West-Friesland region. It is a quiet, rural area of flat farmland and small villages, not far from the North Sea coast. It is known for its traditional local markets, which draw visitors in the summer months.

Accommodation in Schagen itself is limited, so many visitors stay in the nearby town of Alkmaar, roughly 20 km away. Two well-known options there are Van der Valk Hotel Alkmaar and the Grand Hotel Alkmaar. If you book one of them, tell us the exact address when you reserve your transfer so the driver can plan the final leg.
