Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Zottegem

The drive from Charleroi to Zottegem

The transfer covers 97 km (61 miles) and typically takes 1 h 12 m. Zottegem lies in East Flanders, so the road leads north-west from Charleroi across Belgium. Zottegem is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the route is available on request like any other, and we arrange the driver for your arrival.

Traffic in the Brussels area can slow things down on weekday mornings and late afternoons, so allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment, a wedding or a train connection after arrival. The same applies to the return trip to the airport: plan a comfortable buffer before your departure.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the Starbucks inside Brussels South Charleroi Airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can head there straight away.

Choosing the right vehicle

For individual travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice, available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Choose the 1-4 option if you travel with four people or carry extra luggage.

Bigger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. This suits wedding guests, company teams, sports clubs, school trips and family reunions heading to Zottegem and the surrounding area. Please give the exact number of passengers and bags when you book, so the right vehicle is assigned.

About Zottegem

Zottegem is a small town in East Flanders, at the edge of the Flemish Ardennes region. It is known as the birthplace of Lamoraal, Count of Egmont, and the Egmont castle grounds and park remain a landmark in the town centre. The surrounding countryside is gentle, green and popular with cyclists and walkers, which makes Zottegem a quiet base away from the larger cities.

Since the town is compact, give your driver the exact street address or the name of the venue at booking, and the trip will end right at the door.
