Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Hechtel-Eksel

Meeting Point

After collecting your luggage, head to Starbucks, which is easy to find from the baggage area. Your driver waits there with a personalised name sign.

The Drive from Charleroi to Hechtel-Eksel

The route covers 160 km (100 miles) and typically takes 1 h 44 m. Most of the journey is on Belgian motorways, so the time is fairly predictable outside peak hours. Weekday mornings and late afternoons are busier, especially on the stretches near larger cities, so it is worth adding a buffer if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to make. Since this is a longer transfer, a private car also means you can travel door to door without changing trains or waiting for connections.

Hechtel-Eksel is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the transfer is available on request just like any other route.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Smaller parties are well served by a private taxi, available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Families with suitcases or colleagues travelling together may prefer the 8-seat minibus, which gives extra space for luggage on a drive of this length.

Larger parties such as school trips, sports teams, wedding guests or company groups can choose from minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Tell us your group size and the amount of luggage when you book, and we will match the vehicle to your needs.
