Guest Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hi, can anyone give me some advice: we are wanting to go to Bruxelles with 4 people and some boxes and items and I am pondering how to best go about it. Can anyone suggest a van hire company that provides vehicles with more than 3 seats? can you take a hire care abroad within EU? Has someone got an idea what route would be best? Which ferry, or eurostar etc. Thanks for any information you can contribute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinz Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Overnight from Hull...no matter where you leave the country you're going to use some form of other transport. So you may as well get one boat and save on the driving. Ostend or Zeebrugge into Brussels is about 20 mile give or take a mile or two. Eurocar do euro insurance...not sure about the seating though.

Guest Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hi, thanks for your reply skinz, yes, you need to leave the country somewhere, and Hull sounds good because you don't have to go far from here, but overnight ferries are generally so much more expensive and i guess the larger the vehicule the more expensive it will be. will look into Euro car, thanks for the info!

Er it's a fair bit further than 20 miles! Are you not mixing up Bruxelles and Bruge? For a non overnight trip I'd get the tunnel, it's an easy drive down from Calais via Ghent. Otherwise if you are overnighting it then Hull is the best bet by far - it takes longer but you are snoozing for most of it so that's immaterial.

DT Ralge Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 For 4 or more seats and room for boxes, you are talking a crew-cab or one of those monster pick-ups, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
