Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Lillo

The drive from Charleroi to Lillo

The route covers 120 km (75 miles) and typically takes 1 h 26 m. Lillo is far from Charleroi Airport, in the north of Belgium, so most of the trip is on motorway. Lillo is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other route. Traffic around Brussels and Antwerp can build up during the morning and late-afternoon rush hours. If you have a fixed appointment, a ship to catch or a connection to make, allow some extra time on top of the usual journey.

Meeting Point at Charleroi Airport

Your driver waits at Starbucks with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

Choosing the right vehicle

For smaller parties there are two private taxi options: one for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. Groups of five or more can choose a private minibus. Minibuses start at 8 seats and go up to 64 seats, so crews, work teams and tour groups are covered. Pick the option that leaves room for everyone's luggage, and tell us in advance if you travel with bulky items.

About Lillo

Lillo is a small place in the Antwerp port area, close to the Scheldt. It is best known for its old fort and its quiet, polder-like surroundings, which contrast with the large industrial and harbour sites nearby. Few travellers come here without a specific purpose, such as work in the port, a visit to relatives or a walk along the river, so an exact address helps your driver find the right spot.

Where to stay near Lillo

Lillo itself has very limited accommodation, so most visitors stay in nearby Antwerp. Well-established options there include:

• Hotel Julien, a boutique hotel in a historic building in the old centre
• Radisson Blu Astrid Hotel, near Antwerp-Central station
• Hilton Antwerp Old Town, close to the Grote Markt

Give your driver the hotel name at booking and the transfer can go straight to the door.
