Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Scherpenheuvel-Zichem

The Drive from BRU to Scherpenheuvel-Zichem

The route covers 50 km (31 miles) and typically takes around 36 minutes by road. Scherpenheuvel-Zichem is not one of the most frequently booked destinations from Brussels Zaventem Airport, but the transfer is available on request just like any other. Since the journey crosses busy parts of Flemish Brabant, it is sensible to allow extra time during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours, and in bad weather. If you are heading to a fixed appointment, a service or a pilgrimage group event, build in a comfortable buffer rather than relying on the typical driving time alone.

Which Vehicle Suits Your Group

Solo travellers, couples and small families are well served by a private taxi, offered for either 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Choose the larger option if you are travelling with four people or carrying bulky luggage. Larger parties have a wide range of minibuses to choose from:

• Private Minibus 8 Seats for up to 8 passengers, suitable for extended families or small business groups
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats for mid-sized groups and organised tours
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats for large delegations, parish groups or coach-style travel in one vehicle

Keeping a group together in a single vehicle also means everyone arrives at the same time and at the same door.

About Scherpenheuvel-Zichem

It is best known for Scherpenheuvel itself, a long-standing Catholic pilgrimage destination centred on the Basilica of Our Lady, with a distinctive layout of streets radiating from the church.
