Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Rumst

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Rumst

The route covers 91 km (57 miles) and typically takes 1 h 6 m by road. Most of the journey is on motorway, heading north past the Brussels area towards the province of Antwerp. Rumst is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but it is available on request like any other route, and the trip is arranged as a private transfer from door to door.

Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or late afternoon rush hours, when the Brussels ring and the roads towards Mechelen and Antwerp can slow down. Bad weather can also add some minutes, so it is wise not to schedule a tight appointment right after arrival.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people are travelling and how much luggage you carry:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suited to solo travellers, couples, families and small business trips.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a comfortable choice when you have extra suitcases or want more room.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of 8 seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for teams, tour parties, school trips and events.

When you book, enter the number of passengers and the amount of luggage, and the system will show the options that fit.
