Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Hemiksem

The Drive from Charleroi to Hemiksem

The route covers 97 km (60 miles) and typically takes 1 h 11 m. Hemiksem lies south of Antwerp, so the last part of the journey runs through the busy Antwerp region. Weekday morning and late-afternoon traffic around Brussels and Antwerp can slow things down, so allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment or a connection to catch. This route is booked less often than some others, but it is available on request like any other transfer.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Travellers have a wide choice of vehicles for this trip:

• Private Taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, suited to solo travellers, couples and small families with luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats for groups of up to 8 passengers.
• Private Minibus 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64 Seats for bigger parties such as teams, tour groups, company outings and wedding guests.

If your group is close to a size limit, choose the next category up so that bags and coats fit comfortably.

About Hemiksem

Hemiksem is a small municipality in the province of Antwerp, on the Scheldt just south of the city. It is mainly residential, with a quiet town centre and good road links to Antwerp, which makes it a practical base for visiting the region. Give your driver the full street address so the drop-off is exact.

Where to Stay Near Hemiksem

Hemiksem itself has only a limited choice of accommodation, so many visitors stay in nearby Antwerp, a short drive away. Well-known, long-established options there include the Hilton Antwerp Old Town, the Radisson Blu Astrid Hotel near Antwerp-Central station, and the boutique Hotel Julien in the historic centre. Your driver can take you straight to any of them.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight over without searching the terminal.
