Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Zegelsem

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can head there straight away and meet your driver without searching the terminal.

The Drive from CRL to Zegelsem

The route covers 100 km (63 miles) and typically takes about 1 h 14 m. Zegelsem lies in the Flemish Ardennes, so the last part of the trip leaves the main roads for smaller regional ones. Allow some extra time during the weekday morning and late-afternoon rush, when traffic around Brussels slows down. Bad weather can also add minutes on the rural final stretch. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other, and your driver follows the quickest sensible way for the conditions on the day.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on how many people and how much luggage you bring:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples, small families and friends travelling light.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats (1-8 passengers): gives extra room for suitcases and sports or hobby equipment.
• Private Minibus 16 to 64 Seats: available in steps of 8 seats (16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 and 64) for wedding parties, school trips, clubs and company groups.

If you are unsure which size fits, choose the next one up when you have bulky luggage such as bicycles or musical instruments.

About Zegelsem

Zegelsem is a small village in the municipality of Brakel, in the province of East Flanders. The surrounding landscape is hilly countryside typical of the Flemish Ardennes, which draws cyclists and walkers throughout the year. Expect a quiet, rural setting rather than a busy town centre. For the smoothest arrival, have the exact street address or house name ready, because small village roads can be hard to find from a general place name alone.
