Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Thieu

The Drive from Brussels Zaventem to Thieu

The road transfer from Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Thieu covers 64 km (40 miles) and typically takes about 46 minutes. The route leads south-west out of the Brussels area into the province of Hainaut. Traffic around Brussels can slow things down, especially during weekday morning and late-afternoon rush hours, so it is sensible to allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make. Thieu is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends mainly on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suited to individual travellers, couples, families and small business parties.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good choice for larger families or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: practical for wedding parties, sports teams and company groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for large delegations, tour groups and big events, with up to 48 passengers on one vehicle.

About Thieu

Thieu is a small village in Hainaut, in the Le Roeulx area. It is best known for its position on the Canal du Centre, where historic boat lifts form part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. The nearby Strépy-Thieu boat lift is one of the best-known landmarks of the region. The surroundings are quiet and largely rural, so a door-to-door private transfer is often the most convenient way to arrive.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can meet without any searching around the arrivals hall.
