Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Willemeau

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Willemeau

Willemeau lies 115 km (72 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport. The trip normally takes about 1 h 19 m by road. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, and the driver handles the whole journey door to door with no changes.

Belgian motorways around Brussels are busy on weekday mornings and late afternoons, and roadworks can add delays at any time of year. If you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch at the other end, build in a comfortable buffer beyond the standard driving time.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Pick the vehicle by group size and luggage rather than by headcount alone.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, and small families. Choose the 4-passenger option if you want a little more room.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats and 16 Seats: work well for larger families, business groups, or parties with plenty of bags.
• Private Minibus 24, 32, 40 and 48 Seats: cover wedding parties, school trips, sports teams, and organised tours that need to travel together.

With a large group, it helps to give the exact number of passengers and bags when you book.

Where to Stay near Willemeau

Willemeau is a small place, and we cannot confidently name hotels in the village itself. Willemeau belongs to the area around Tournai, one of Belgium's oldest cities, so the nearest well-known options are in Tournai.

• Mercure Tournai: a established hotel in Tournai, convenient for reaching the city centre and the surrounding countryside.
• Hôtel Cathédrale: a hotel in Tournai close to the cathedral, a good base for exploring the historic centre.

Tournai is known for its Romanesque and Gothic cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site, so many visitors combine a stay there with a trip to the surrounding villages.
