Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Spa

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks holding a sign with your name on it. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there without searching the terminal.

The Drive from Charleroi to Spa

The route covers 132 km (83 miles) and usually takes about 1 h 26 m. It leads east from Charleroi and, over the final stretch, up into the hills of the Ardennes. The road gets more winding and the scenery greener as you approach Spa. Allow extra time on weekday mornings and evenings, when traffic around the larger towns builds up, and in winter, when conditions in the hills can slow the last part of the trip. This route is booked less often than others from CRL, but it is available on request, and your driver follows the same arrangement as on any other transfer.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, families and small groups with normal luggage.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: gives more room for luggage and people when you are travelling with friends, family or colleagues.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of eight seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for tour groups, wedding parties, sports teams and company events.

Tell us your group size and the amount of luggage when you book, and we will match the vehicle to your trip.

Where to Stay in Spa

Spa is a small town in the province of Liège and one of the best-known spa towns in Europe. Its thermal springs gave the English word "spa" its name. The famous Spa-Francorchamps race circuit lies nearby, and the surrounding Ardennes forests attract walkers and cyclists. Several well-established hotels are available in town:

• Radisson Blu Palace Hotel: a large, long-standing hotel in the centre of Spa.
• Hôtel Balmoral: a traditional hotel set on a hillside above the town.
• Manoir de Lébioles: a country-style hotel in the wooded hills just outside the centre.

Give your driver the full name and address of your hotel when you book, so the drop-off goes smoothly at the end of the journey.
