Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Roesbrugge-Haringe

The drive from CRL to Roesbrugge-Haringe

The route covers 171 km (107 miles) and typically takes 1 h 54 m. Most of the way is on motorway across Wallonia and into West Flanders, before smaller roads lead to the village close to the French border. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or late-afternoon rush, since the busy stretches around Brussels and Ghent can slow traffic. Bad weather can also add time. Because this route is booked less often, it is arranged on request, and your driver plans the trip specifically for you.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. If you have more people or a lot of luggage, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that gives everyone comfortable room for their bags on a trip of nearly two hours.
