Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Brecht

The drive from Charleroi to Brecht

The route covers 130 km (81 miles) and typically takes 1 h 30 m. You leave the Charleroi area heading north, pass the Brussels region and continue towards Antwerp province, where Brecht lies. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other. If you travel on a weekday morning or late afternoon, allow some extra time: traffic around Brussels and the Antwerp ring road can slow the final part of the journey.

Choosing the right vehicle

For couples, families and small groups, a private taxi is the simplest option, with seats for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers depending on how much luggage you carry. Larger parties can choose from private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, so wedding guests, school trips, sports teams and company delegations can all be matched with a suitable vehicle. Tell us your passenger count and the amount of luggage when you book and we will assign the right size.
