Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Breda

The Drive from Charleroi to Breda

The route covers 145 km (91 miles) and usually takes around 1 h 38 m. It runs north through Belgium, past the Brussels and Antwerp area, and across the border into the Netherlands. Those are the busiest stretches of the trip. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours around Brussels and Antwerp can slow traffic, so add some buffer if you have a tight appointment or a connecting booking in Breda. This is an occasionally booked route, and every transfer is planned individually around your arrival.

Meeting Point at Charleroi Airport

Your driver waits at the Starbucks with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there after baggage reclaim.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For couples, families or solo travellers, a private taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers is the natural choice and leaves room for luggage. Groups can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, or the 24-seat and 40-seat sizes for mid-sized parties. Business teams, school groups and wedding guests heading to the Netherlands will find a suitable size for their numbers. Tell us the group size and the amount of luggage when you book, and we will match the vehicle.
