Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Herent

Meeting Point

Once you have collected your luggage, head to Starbucks in the terminal, which is easy to find. Your driver will be waiting there with a personalised name sign.

The Drive from Charleroi to Herent

The journey covers 85 km (53 miles) and typically takes about 1 h 3 m. Charleroi Airport lies south of Brussels, and Herent is on the far side of the capital, so the route skirts the Brussels area before reaching Flemish Brabant. Traffic around Brussels and Leuven can build up on weekday mornings and late afternoons, so it is sensible to allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment, a meeting or a check-in deadline at the other end.

Herent is a small route on our network and is not booked as often as the big Brussels runs, but it is available on request like any other transfer. To keep the pickup or drop-off smooth, have the exact street address in Herent ready when you book.

Which Vehicle Suits Your Group

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. If you travel with more luggage or more people, minibuses start at 8 seats. For bigger groups such as teams, wedding parties or company outings, we also offer minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64 seats. Choose the size that gives everyone comfortable room for their bags.

Herent and Where to Stay Nearby

Herent is a municipality in the province of Flemish Brabant, immediately north of Leuven. It is largely residential and green, and it is well placed for visiting the university city next door. Herent itself has little in the way of large, long-established hotels that we can name with confidence, so for accommodation the nearest town, Leuven, is the better reference point. Well-known options there include:

• Martin's Klooster, a hotel set in a former monastery complex
• Pentahotel Leuven, a modern hotel close to the city centre

Both are only a short ride from Herent, so we can also take you to either of them on the same route.
