Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Rekkem

The Drive from Charleroi to Rekkem

Rekkem lies 126 km (79 miles) from Charleroi Airport, and the drive typically takes 1 h 21 m. The trip crosses much of Belgium, from Hainaut to the far west of West Flanders. Allow some extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours or in poor weather, as traffic around the larger cities can slow the journey. Your driver monitors conditions, so you can sit back after landing.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers and couples, a private taxi for 1-3 passengers is the simplest option. A taxi for 1-4 passengers gives a family of four a little more room for luggage. For groups, we offer private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that matches your party plus bags, and we will arrange the rest.

Meeting Point at Charleroi Airport

About Rekkem

Rekkem is a village in the municipality of Menen, in West Flanders. It sits right on the border with France, so it is a convenient base for visitors heading to both sides of the frontier. The setting is quiet and residential, with the larger town of Menen close by. If you have a specific street address, share it when booking so the driver can take you directly to the door.

Where to Stay Near Rekkem

Rekkem itself is small, so most visitors look at the nearby city of Kortrijk, which has a wider choice of hotels. Two well-established options there are:

• Parkhotel Kortrijk, a long-standing hotel popular with both business and leisure guests.
• Hotel Messeyne, a boutique hotel in a historic building in the city centre.
