Brussels → Bruges city centre: key facts

A private transfer from Brussels Airport (BRU) to Bruges city centre costs €340 per car for 1–3 passengers and €420 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 110 km via E40 and R0; the drive takes about 1h 20min with clear roads, so plan on 1h 20min – 1h 40min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the main Brussels Airport terminal building, just after the baggage reclaim and customs exit, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Bruges is a UNESCO-listed medieval city in West Flanders, with canals, the Belfry on the Markt and the Beguinage. The drive from Brussels Airport is around 110 km via the E40 motorway. The old town is encircled by a ring canal and the historic centre has a low-emission zone and many pedestrian streets, so a car stops at the nearest permitted street or the edge of the old town. Bruges railway station lies on the south-west side of the ring, about a 20-minute walk from the Markt. Summer weekends and the Christmas market draw heavy visitor numbers.

The heart of Bruges is the Markt with the Belfry, 83 metres high with 366 steps, and the neighbouring Burg square has the Basilica of the Holy Blood and the town hall. A short walk south leads to the Minnewater and the Beguinage, and the Rozenhoedkaai is a popular canal viewpoint. The railway station is about 1.5 km from the Markt, and most of the centre is on foot or by canal boat from spring to autumn. The Sint-Janshospitaal houses the paintings of Hans Memling. The old town is busiest in July and August and in December.

Public transport instead: SNCB/NMBS train IC from Brussels Airport-Zaventem station (change at Brussels-Midi or Brussels-Central) to Brugge — about 1h 25min – 1h 45min, hourly or more, 1 change.
