Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Zeveneken

The drive from Brussels Airport to Zeveneken

Zeveneken lies 76 km (47 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive typically takes around 53 minutes. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late afternoon rush, when the roads around Brussels and Ghent are busiest. Heavy rain or roadworks can also slow the journey, so build in a little margin if you have a tight appointment at the other end.

Vehicle choice depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small groups with standard luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats (1-8 passengers): a good fit for larger families or groups with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 Seats: for wedding parties, corporate groups, sports teams and other larger gatherings, with seating for up to 48 passengers.

About Zeveneken

Zeveneken is a small village in East Flanders, in the countryside near Ghent and part of the municipality of Lochristi. It has a quiet, rural character, with farmland and residential streets rather than major attractions. Most visitors come to see family, attend local events or stay in the Ghent region. Give your driver the exact street address before the trip, as village streets can be harder to find than main roads.
