Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Velzeke-Ruddershove

The drive from CRL to Velzeke-Ruddershove

The route covers 98 km (61 miles) and typically takes 1 h 13 m by road. That is a fair stretch, so it suits travellers who want to go straight from the arrival hall to their door without planning connections. Brussels and its ring road lie between the airport and East Flanders, so allow extra time if your transfer falls in the morning or late afternoon rush hours. Heavy rain or roadworks can add to the journey as well. This is a route that is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request just like any other.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends mainly on how many people are travelling and how much luggage they carry.

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): a good fit for solo travellers, couples, families and small business trips.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats (1-8 passengers): gives extra room for suitcases, sports equipment or a party of friends.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of 8 seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for wedding parties, club outings, school trips and company events.

If you are unsure which size to pick, choose the one with a little room to spare, especially with bulky luggage over a trip of more than an hour.

About Velzeke-Ruddershove

Velzeke-Ruddershove is a rural village in the municipality of Zottegem, in the province of East Flanders. It is best known for its Roman-era archaeological finds. The surroundings are quiet countryside, so the transfer is mostly about reaching a specific address. Have the full street name and house number ready when you book, because small villages can be hard to locate by name alone.
