Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Woumen

The drive from Brussels Airport to Woumen

Woumen lies 144 km (90 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive normally takes about 1 h 37 m. The route leads west across Flanders, so it is a fairly long transfer, and a private car lets you skip the planning of connections with luggage. Allow extra time during weekday rush hours around Brussels and Ghent, and in bad weather, when traffic on the main motorways can slow down. Your driver keeps an eye on the conditions and takes the most sensible route on the day.

Which vehicle suits your group

This route is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request just like any other. For solo travellers, couples and small families, a Private Taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers is the simplest choice. Larger parties can book a Private Minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which suits wedding guests, school trips, tour groups and company outings heading to the same address. If you carry a lot of luggage or sports equipment, pick the next size up so everyone travels comfortably.

Woumen as a destination

Woumen is a small village in the municipality of Diksmuide in West Flanders. The surroundings are flat, green farmland, and the area is known for its quiet countryside and the nearby IJzer region. Visitors often combine a stay here with trips to Diksmuide and other places in the Westhoek. Because it is a rural place, it helps to give your driver the exact street address or a clear pin on the map when you book.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House in Brussels Zaventem Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage. Once you reach it, you can meet your driver and set off for Woumen without any detour.
