Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Zevergem

The drive from Charleroi to Zevergem

The route covers 110 km (69 miles) and typically takes 1 h 12 m. It runs north from Charleroi across Wallonia and then into East Flanders, ending on the quiet side of Ghent. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Traffic around Brussels and Ghent can slow things down at morning and late-afternoon rush hours, so allow some extra time if you have a connection, an appointment or a check-in to make.

Choosing the right vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice: one option seats 1-3 passengers, another 1-4. If your group is bigger or carries a lot of luggage, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size by passenger count and bags, and you will have room to sit comfortably for the whole trip.

About Zevergem

Zevergem is a village in the municipality of De Pinte, in East Flanders, just outside Ghent. It is a residential, green area with the Flemish countryside on one side and the city within easy reach on the other. Most visitors come to see family, to work in the region or to use it as a calmer base for exploring Ghent.

Places to stay near Zevergem

• Sofitel Gent Belfort, a hotel in the historic centre close to the Belfry.
• Marriott Ghent Hotel, set on the Korenlei beside the Leie river.
• NH Gent Belfort, also in the old town and within walking distance of the main sights.
