Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Eigenbilzen

The Drive from Charleroi to Eigenbilzen

The route covers 118 km (74 miles) and typically takes 1 h 17 m. It leads from the Walloon south of the country to the province of Limburg in the east of Flanders, so you cross a good part of Belgium without any border formalities. Journey times can stretch during the weekday morning and late-afternoon rush, especially on the stretches near Brussels and Leuven, and when there are roadworks or heavy weather. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting departure, it is sensible to add a buffer to the standard driving time.

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 meet up without a long search through the terminal.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice, with options for up to 3 or up to 4 passengers. Groups of up to 8 passengers can travel in a private minibus with 8 seats, which leaves more room for suitcases than a standard car. For bigger parties such as school trips, sports teams, wedding guests or company events, minibuses are available with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that matches your headcount plus luggage, and the transfer is arranged for your exact trip on request.

About Eigenbilzen

Eigenbilzen is a village in the municipality of Bilzen, in Belgian Limburg. The surroundings are rural and green, with fruit orchards and quiet roads typical of this part of the province. Bilzen itself is the nearest town for shops, restaurants and services, and Hasselt and Maastricht are both within easy reach by road. Because the village is small, it helps to have the exact street address ready when you book, so the driver can take you straight to the door.
