Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Onkerzele

The drive from Charleroi to Onkerzele

The transfer covers 67 km (42 miles) and typically takes 1 h 3 m. The route runs north from Charleroi Airport Brussels South towards East Flanders, so the final stretch leaves the Walloon motorway network and continues on regional roads into the Geraardsbergen area. Onkerzele is not a route we are asked for every day, but it is available on request like any other destination.

Allow some extra time if your trip falls in the weekday morning or late afternoon peaks, when traffic around Brussels slows down, or if you have a tight connection at the other end. Roadworks and bad weather can also add a few minutes. If you are travelling to an appointment or event, build in a small buffer rather than planning to the minute.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks inside Charleroi Airport with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage and walked into the arrivals area.

Choosing the right vehicle

For couples, small families or solo travellers, a private taxi is the practical choice. It is available for 1-3 passengers or 1-4 passengers, so check how much luggage you have before picking the smaller one.

• Private Minibus 8 Seats: suits groups of up to 8 with luggage, such as families or colleagues travelling together.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: for wedding parties, sports teams or company trips.
• Private Minibus 40, 48, 56 and 64 Seats: for large delegations, tour groups and organised events.

Whatever the size of your group, tell us the number of passengers and bags when you book, and we will match the vehicle to your trip.

About Onkerzele

Onkerzele is a small village that belongs to the municipality of Geraardsbergen in East Flanders. The area is rural and hilly, which makes it quiet compared with the larger Flemish cities. Geraardsbergen itself is known for its cycling heritage and its local mattentaart pastry. If you are visiting a private address in the village, have the exact street name and house number ready, as this helps your driver reach the door without delay.
