Driving Tips for Zaventem
With its network of well-maintained, flat roads, driving a rental car in Zaventem is relatively easy. However, our local tips will make your experience even better:
- Speed limits: Expect speed limits of 50 kph (31 mph) in city areas and up to 120 kph (74 mph) on a divided expressway.
- Winter Weather: If you’re traveling during the winter months, make sure you keep a full tank of gas in case of a delay due to snow or ice.
- Dipped headlights: When the weather is poor, even in daylight, you must have on your dipped headlights.
- Rush Hour: Try to stay away from the E19 and E40 during rush hour. These highways connect Zaventem with Brussels and experience congestion during peak times.
Regardless of your length of stay, our tips for driving in Belgium and around Zaventem will make you well-prepared.
Best Places to Visit in and around Zaventem
If you’re arriving at Brussels Airport or want to explore the areas around Brussels, it’s a good idea to rent a car in Zaventem. It allows you the freedom and flexibility to make your itinerary. Consider adding these places to your bucket list:
- Bruges: Referred to as “the Venice of the North,” this romantic city is only a 1.5-hour drive from Zaventem. It offers walks along the canals and the chance to see Gothic architecture.
