Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Amblève

The drive from Charleroi to Amblève

The route covers 161 km (101 miles) and typically takes 1 h 45 m. Most of the journey is on motorway before the road leads into the quieter countryside of eastern Belgium. Amblève is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other, so you simply book your date and arrival time in advance.

Allow some extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hours, or in poor winter weather, as conditions in the Ardennes region can slow traffic. Your driver follows the arrival time you provide, so you do not need to hurry through the terminal.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have:

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) or Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) for solo travellers, couples, families and small groups.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats for groups of up to 8 who want extra room for bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 Seats for events, tour parties, clubs and company groups of any size up to 64.

If you are unsure, count your suitcases as well as your passengers. A slightly roomier vehicle makes a journey of almost two hours more comfortable.

About Amblève

Amblève, known in German as Amel, lies in the province of Liège, in the German-speaking part of eastern Belgium. The area is rural and green, close to the Ardennes and the border region with Germany and Luxembourg. It suits walkers, cyclists and anyone looking for a calm base away from the cities. As the place is small and spread out, it helps to give your driver the exact address of your accommodation or meeting spot when you book.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the Starbucks inside Brussels South Charleroi Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight over and meet your driver without searching the terminal.
