Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Zevergem

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you collect your luggage, so you can head there directly.

The Drive to Zevergem

The route covers 70 km (43 miles) and typically takes about 47 minutes. Most of the journey is on motorways heading west across Flanders towards the Ghent area. Zevergem is a less frequently booked destination, but it is available on request like any other. Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late afternoon rush hours, when traffic around Brussels and Ghent tends to slow down. Roadworks can also add some minutes, so a small buffer is sensible if you have a fixed appointment at the other end.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option: one seats 1-3 passengers and another seats 1-4. Larger groups can book a private minibus. The 8-seat minibus suits a group of friends or an extended family with luggage. The 16, 24, 32, 40 and 48-seat minibuses cover wedding parties, company groups and organised tours. Pick the size by passengers and bags together, since a full vehicle with large suitcases can feel cramped.

About Zevergem

Zevergem is a small village in the municipality of De Pinte in East Flanders. It lies close to Ghent and the river Scheldt, in a quiet, mostly residential and green setting. Visitors usually come to see family and friends, for local events or for business in the Ghent region. The village itself is low-key, so many travellers combine a stay here with time in Ghent.

Where to Stay Nearby

I cannot name well-known hotels in Zevergem itself with confidence, so here are established options in Ghent, the nearest major city:

• Marriott Ghent, in the historic centre on the Korenlei by the Leie river.
• NH Gent Belfort, a central hotel close to the Belfry and the old town.
• Pillows Grand Hotel Reylof, a boutique-style hotel in a historic building in the city centre.

You can ask your driver to take you directly to any of these addresses instead of Zevergem.
