Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Kerkom

The drive from Charleroi to Kerkom

The route covers 77 km (48 miles) and usually takes about 1 h 3 m. Most of it is on motorway, heading north past Brussels towards Leuven. Kerkom is not a place you reach easily by public transport, so a private transfer saves you from juggling several connections with luggage. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush, when the Brussels ring and the roads around Leuven tend to slow down. Bad weather can add time as well.

Choosing the right vehicle

For one to three passengers, the private taxi is the simplest option. A second taxi option takes up to four passengers, which suits a small family with bags. If your group is bigger, minibuses start at 8 seats and continue in steps of 8 up to 64 seats, so wedding parties, sports teams and company groups can all be matched with a suitable vehicle. When you book, tell us how much luggage you have so we can plan the right space.

About Kerkom

Kerkom is a small village in Flemish Brabant, part of the municipality of Boutersem and close to Leuven. The surroundings are rural and quiet, with fields, farmland and short country roads. Visitors usually come for family visits, local events or a peaceful stay outside the busier cities. Because the village is small, it helps to give your driver the exact street address in advance.

Where to stay near Kerkom

Kerkom itself has very little in the way of hotels, so most visitors stay in nearby Leuven, a university city with a wide choice of accommodation. Well-known options there include:

• Martin's Klooster, a hotel in a former monastery building
• Leuven Marriott Hotel, a larger international-chain hotel in the city centre
• Park Inn by Radisson Leuven, a modern hotel close to the railway station

We can take you from the airport straight to any of these, or to a private address in Kerkom.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks in the airport building, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there without searching the terminal.
