Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Witten

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House inside Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU), holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can meet your driver without a long search through the terminal.

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Witten

The transfer covers 259 km (161 miles), and the typical driving time is 2 h 55 m. The route leaves Belgium and crosses into Germany, ending in the western Ruhr area. Because it is a long cross-border journey, allow extra time if you travel during rush hour or on a busy holiday weekend, as traffic around the large cities along the way can slow things down. Carry your passport or ID card in your hand luggage in case you are asked for it.

This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. A private transfer means you travel directly from the arrivals hall to your address in Witten, without changing trains or carrying bags between connections.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

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

• Private Taxi: 1-4 passengers, a good fit for individual travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: 1-8 passengers, for larger families or small business groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: for teams, delegations and mid-sized tour groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: for conference parties, school trips and large organised groups.

For a journey of nearly three hours, it is worth choosing a vehicle with some spare room, especially if you travel with sports equipment, trade-fair material or several suitcases per person.
