Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Gelrode

The Drive from Charleroi Airport to Gelrode

Gelrode lies 99 km (62 miles) from Brussels South Charleroi Airport. The typical driving time is 1 h 9 m. The route crosses Wallonia and then runs north through Flemish Brabant, so most of the trip is on motorway. Traffic around the Brussels ring and on the approach roads in the Flemish part of the route can slow things down at rush hour, so allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the Starbucks with a personalised name sign. It 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 and small groups there are two private taxi options: one for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. Choose the larger one if you are travelling with bulky luggage or a child seat. For bigger parties we offer private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that matches your headcount and luggage. Wedding parties, school trips, sports teams and company groups heading to Gelrode are all covered. This route is booked less often than the busiest airport runs, but it is available on request like any other, so just enter your details and travel date.

About Gelrode

Gelrode is a village in the municipality of Aarschot, in the province of Flemish Brabant. It has a quiet, rural character, with fields and wooded areas around it. Aarschot is the nearest town for shops, restaurants and rail connections. If you are visiting family, attending an event or staying in the surrounding countryside, a private transfer saves you from piecing together several local connections after a flight. Give your driver the exact street address when booking, because small villages often have similar street names in neighbouring districts.
