Brussels-Midi, the European Quarter, the centre
Eurostar or Thalys at Brussels-Midi, a meeting at Schuman, an appointment in the centre: we drop you at the entrance with your cases instead of leaving you to find a platform and then a car park.
For an early train, leaving Tienen by car is often simpler than the Leuven connection, especially with luggage.
The E40 into Brussels and the low-emission zone
The E40 between Leuven and the Brussels ring is the weak point of this trip: between 07:00 and 09:00 it easily adds half an hour. So we leave earlier, or swing around via the E314 and the northern ring depending on the hour.
Our cars comply with the Brussels low-emission zone: we drive into the city without a detour and without a fine landing in your name.
Timing Chastre → Brussels Midi Station
Allow 33 min for 42 km off peak. The driver checks the traffic before leaving Tienen and adapts the route; the agreed amount does not move.

A Eurostar, Thalys and TGV hub: dense flows and monitored kiss-and-ride zones. We meet at an agreed exit rather than on the crowded forecourt.
