Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Waudrez

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Waudrez

The route covers 31 km (20 miles) and usually takes around 32 minutes. Waudrez lies in the Hainaut province, so the trip stays within Wallonia and does not pass through Brussels. Allow some extra time during the weekday morning and evening rush hours, and when the weather is poor. Waudrez is a quiet village, so it helps to have the exact street address ready when you book. Your driver can then take you to the door instead of a nearby landmark.

Choosing the right vehicle

A private taxi suits smaller parties, with one option for up to 3 passengers and another for up to 4. For bigger groups there are private minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size that matches your passenger count, and keep your luggage in mind as well as the number of people. A family with large suitcases, for example, will be more comfortable with a bit of spare space. If you are unsure which option fits, choose the next size up.

Waudrez as a destination

Waudrez is a small village that belongs to the town of Binche in the province of Hainaut. Most visitors come for the surrounding area. Binche is well known for its Carnival, with its traditional Gilles, which is recognised by UNESCO, and for the International Museum of Carnival and Mask. The setting is rural and calm, which makes it a good base for visiting relatives or exploring this part of Wallonia at a slower pace.

Meeting Point

After you collect your luggage, head to Starbucks, which is easy to find inside the airport. Your driver will be waiting there with a personalised name sign.
