Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Herchies

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Herchies

The route covers 52 km (32 miles) and usually takes about 42 minutes. Most of the way is on motorways and main regional roads through Hainaut, and the last stretch leads into the quiet countryside around Herchies. Allow some extra time during the weekday morning and late afternoon rush, and in bad winter weather, when traffic around Charleroi and Mons can slow down. This route is booked less often than the busiest ones, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you have:

• Private Taxi (1-3 passengers) suits solo travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Taxi (1-4 passengers) gives a little more room for a party of four with bags.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats (1-8 passengers) works for bigger families or friends travelling together with plenty of luggage.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats is available in steps of 8 seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for tour groups, school trips, wedding parties and company events.

If you are unsure which option fits, choose the next size up when you carry bulky items such as strollers, sports equipment or musical instruments.

Herchies as a destination

Herchies is a small village in the municipality of Jurbise, in the Walloon province of Hainaut. It is a rural, residential place surrounded by farmland and green countryside, with the city of Mons within easy reach. Because the village is small, it helps to have the exact street address ready when you book, so the driver can take you directly to the door.
