Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Vielsalm

Meeting Point at Brussels Zaventem Airport

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can head straight there and meet your driver without searching the terminal.

The Drive from BRU to Vielsalm

Vielsalm lies 157 km (98 miles) from the airport, and the trip typically takes 1 h 45 m. The route leaves the Brussels area and then continues south-east towards the Belgian Ardennes, where the roads become quieter and more winding. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other transfer.

Allow some extra time if you land during the morning or evening rush hour, as traffic around Brussels can slow the first part of the journey. In winter, fog, rain or snow in the Ardennes can also add time, so it is wise not to schedule a tight appointment right after arrival.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on your group size and the amount of luggage you carry:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families or friends travelling with regular luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable option for larger families or groups with extra bags, such as skis, hiking gear or bikes in cases.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: well suited to holiday groups, school trips, club outings and team events.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: intended for large parties travelling together, such as coach-style group arrivals.

If you are unsure which size to choose, count both passengers and suitcases. It is better to pick the next size up when the group is close to a vehicle's limit.

About Vielsalm

Vielsalm is a small town in the province of Luxembourg, in Wallonia, set in the green hills of the Belgian Ardennes along the Salm river. The area is mainly known for its forests and countryside, and visitors often come for walking, cycling and a quiet break away from the city. Since the surroundings are rural, it helps to give your driver the exact address of your accommodation or meeting spot when you book.
