Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Sourbrodt

The drive from Brussels Airport to Sourbrodt

Sourbrodt lies 142 km (89 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive usually takes about 1 h 38 m. The route leads east across Belgium, away from the capital region and towards the German-speaking border area. The last stretch runs through the rolling countryside of the Eastern Cantons. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, so you simply book a private vehicle for your date and time.

The journey time is a typical figure. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels. Winter conditions on the high ground near Sourbrodt, such as fog, ice or snow, can also slow the final part of the trip. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection after arrival, it is sensible to build in a margin.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle you need depends on group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suited to solo travellers, couples, small families and business guests.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable choice for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags, such as hiking or cycling gear.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats: intended for tour groups, clubs, school trips and event parties, up to 48 passengers in one vehicle.

Travelling with skis, bicycles or other bulky equipment is common in this region. Plan your vehicle size around the luggage as well as the number of people.
