Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Zerkegem

The drive from Brussels Airport to Zerkegem

Zerkegem lies 114 km (71 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 1 h 19 m. This is a route that is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request like any other. Allow some extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours around Brussels, or in heavy rain, since the journey crosses much of Flanders. A private transfer takes you from the arrivals hall to the door of your address without any changes along the way.

Choosing the right vehicle

Smaller parties can choose between a private taxi for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. The second suits a family or a group with a few extra bags. For bigger parties there are private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. These work well for wedding guests, company groups or a multi-family holiday heading to the coast area. Pick the size by the number of people and the amount of luggage, and leave some spare space rather than filling every seat.

Zerkegem and where to stay nearby

Zerkegem is a small village in the municipality of Jabbeke in West Flanders. It is set in flat, open countryside inland from the Belgian coast, and it is a quiet base for cycling and for visits to Bruges and Ostend. I cannot name long-established accommodation in Zerkegem itself with confidence, so here are well-known options in the nearby towns:

• Hotel Dukes' Palace, Bruges: a historic hotel in the city centre.
• Hotel de Tuilerieën, Bruges: a canal-side hotel in a former mansion.
• Thermae Palace Hotel, Ostend: a classic seafront hotel from the 1930s.

If your stay is in one of these towns rather than in Zerkegem, tell us the exact address when you book so the driver goes straight there.
