Traffic around Brussels can build up during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours, so allow some extra time if you have a fixed check-in, a meeting or an onward connection.

Which Vehicle Suits Your Group

For individual travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option, with seats for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger parties can book a private minibus. The smallest has 8 seats, and the range continues in steps of eight through 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56 up to 64 seats. This suits business delegations, tour groups, wedding parties and school trips that want to arrive together rather than split across several cars. If you are carrying a lot of luggage, choose the next size up for more room.
