Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Escanaffles

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 go straight there without searching the terminal.

The Drive from Charleroi to Escanaffles

The transfer covers 105 km (66 miles) and usually takes about 1 h 13 m. The route runs west across Hainaut towards the Flemish border, so it is a long ride but a straightforward one. Allow extra time during the morning and evening rush hours, and in bad weather, as traffic on the main roads can slow the trip. If you have an onward appointment, plan a small buffer rather than counting on the exact minimum.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Because this route is booked less often, it is arranged on request, and the vehicle is matched to your group:

• Private Taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, suited to solo travellers, couples and families.
• Private Minibus with 8 or 16 seats for friends, extended families or small business teams with luggage.
• Private Minibus with 24 to 64 seats for wedding parties, school trips, sports clubs and company events.

Tell us the number of passengers and the amount of luggage when you book, so the right vehicle is ready on arrival.

About Escanaffles

Escanaffles is a small village in the municipality of Celles, in the Walloon province of Hainaut, close to the Scheldt river and the border with Flanders. The setting is rural and quiet, with open countryside around it, and visitors usually come to see family, attend local events or work nearby. Because it is so small, please give your driver the exact street address when you book.

Places to Stay Nearby

Escanaffles itself has very little in the way of hotels. The nearest larger town with well-known accommodation is Tournai, where travellers often choose the Mercure Tournai or the Hôtel Cathédrale. Both are in the historic centre, close to the cathedral and the main sights. Your driver can take you to your hotel in Tournai instead of Escanaffles if you prefer.
