KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Zaventem

  • Public buses give you limited access to many unique attractions in and far from the city, and most of them travel on specific routes and offer a slow journey. On the other hand, car hire in Zaventem gives freedom, and you can enjoy a flexible trip. This way, you can drive to destinations of choice during your stay in the city. When driving a hire car, you can visit Scheldt Plain Nature Park House, about 100 km (62 miles) away and Zoo Antwerpen, around 48 km (30 miles) from the city.
  • If you land at Brussel Airport (BRU) when visiting Zaventem, you can hire a car at the airport. Car hire companies, including Enterprise, Alamo, Keddy by Europcar, and Dollar, are located at the Arrivals Hall of the airport. Getting to the car hire offices is easy because the airport provides complimentary shuttle services. In addition, most Zaventem car hire companies recommend customers book in advance for a smooth journey.
  • Roads in Zaventem are well-connected and marked, and most are modern roads. In addition, the streets are well-lit, making them visible when driving at night. This makes it easy to drive around the city. However, some roads can be congested, especially when tourists visit the city, so using car hire in Zaventem can often be difficult. Thus, you need to be keen and ensure pedestrian safety. In addition, drink-driving is prohibited, and the maximum blood alcohol concentration should be 0.05.
  • Rush hour in Zaventem is usually between 08:00 to 10:00 and 16:00 to 18:00 on weekdays. It's caused mainly by commuters going to and from work. One street to avoid during rush hours is Lloyd George because it's frequently congested. Therefore, consider using backstreet routes to avoid delays in your journey. You can also avoid traffic by starting the tour journey earlier.
  • Book your car hire in Zaventem at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Premium hire cars in Zaventem are around 218% more expensive than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Zaventem?

    Most roads in Zaventem are in excellent condition and can accommodate large cars. Therefore, consider driving an SUV on your trip. The advantage of driving a large vehicle is that it gives you better vision on the road. In addition, large vehicles are spacious and the best, especially when travelling as a large group, as it can hold more luggage and ensure a comfortable journey. Again, SUVs have better traction, making them easy to drive despite the weather condition.

  • What’s the speed limit in Zaventem?

    Speed limits are set in Zaventem to improve road safety and are different in various zones. When using car hire in Zaventem in built-up areas like school zones, maintain a speed of 50 km/h (31 mph) to ensure the safety of unsupervised children who could cross the road. The maximum speed limit is 70 km/h (43 mph) when driving outside built-up areas. On two-lane roadways and freeways, the maximum speed limit is 120 km/h (75 mph). The streets have traffic cameras to observe driver behaviour and ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians. In addition, several zones have speed limit signs to guide drivers when driving and prevent over-speeding.

  • Where are the best places to park in Zaventem?

    There are spacious car parks in the city centre. Again, most of these parking spaces are near streets and eateries. However, parking rates vary from one car park to another. Therefore, consider the rates before parking. Several car parks offer free parking for 2 hours, including Kerkplein, Germeentelijke Sporthal Zaventem, P+R Delta, Kiss + Ride, Steenokkerzeelstraat 151, and Jean Baptist Devlemincklaan 2. Brussels Airport-Zaventem-Express Parking charges around €24 ( about £20.51), A-Stay charges around €3.8 (£3.25), and Parking P1 Station Mechelen charges about €2.8 (£2.39 ). You can get into the city using public bus connections if you park outside the city centre.

Had heard negative reviews, but have to say this was one of the most efficient car rental experiences we have had. The car was exactly what we reserved and the counters on each end very quick and easy.

Cancelled our reservation without contacting us. Hired a taxi to take us to the rental spot only to find out it had been canceled without notifying beforehand. They only had a compact to give us when we booked a larger car. Sent us to another location at the airport which they said had our size car available, required hiring another taxi. Arrived at that location and was told they have no cars. Hired another taxi to go back to the original location and had no choice but to take the small compact or nothing. Crammed 4 people and bags into that car. Spent $100 on hired taxis. Ruined 3 days of travel plans. No discount for trouble. Only a discount because of the difference in size category. Not happy. Very, very unhappy. Will not use kayak or sixt again.

The rental rate was much too expensive, but there was a train strike, so we had no choice but to rent a car. We were charged 55 euros for gas when we’d only used one bar on the fill line. There are no gas stations prior to the drop off location at the airport. None. There is a BP on the other side of the road, but the signage is very poor at the airport & we couldn’t get to the gas station or try harder because the passport control line was an hour & half long at the airport & we had no choice. 55 euros for such a small amount of gas is absolutely ridiculous considering the situation at this airport.

The staff were really friendly. The only red flag for them is that they tried to include always more extra things (insurance and extra coverage), even they changed my reservation and added me an extra day when i didn´t want that.
