Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Nalinnes

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks inside the airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk over and meet your driver without delay.

The Drive from CRL to Nalinnes

Nalinnes lies 21 km (13 miles) from Charleroi Airport, and the trip usually takes around 24 minutes. The route runs south from the airport area through the Charleroi region, so it is short and uncomplicated. Traffic around Charleroi can slow things down at morning and late-afternoon rush hours, and bad weather can add time too. If you have a train, a connection or an appointment waiting at the other end, it is sensible to build in a small buffer.

This is a route that is booked less often than some others, but it is available on request just like any other transfer. Simply enter your pickup details when booking and your driver will take care of the rest.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle you pick depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, a good fit for solo travellers, couples, families and small business trips.
• Private Minibus with 8 seats for groups of up to 8 passengers with extra bags.
• Larger minibuses with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats for bigger parties such as school trips, sports teams, wedding guests or company events.

If you are travelling with bulky luggage, sports gear or a pram, choose the next size up so everyone rides comfortably.

Nalinnes and Where to Stay

Nalinnes is a village in the municipality of Ham-sur-Heure-Nalinnes, in the Hainaut province of Wallonia, just south of Charleroi. It has a quiet, residential, semi-rural feel and is a convenient base if you are visiting family or friends in the area, or heading into the countryside of the Heure valley.

I cannot name well-established hotels in Nalinnes itself with confidence. The nearest town with a wider choice of accommodation is Charleroi, where well-known options include:

• Mercure Charleroi Centre Gare
• Ibis Charleroi Centre Gare

Charleroi is a short drive from Nalinnes, so a private transfer can take you between the airport, your hotel and your final destination without hassle.
