By plane

Most international flights land on the Brussels Airport of Zaventem. Website Brussels Airport

The easiest way to travel from the airport to Gent is by train. There are direct train shuttles to Gent every hour, and indirect lines with one lay-over in Brussels every twenty minutes. The trip typically takes about one hour on off-peak hours.

By train

As Belgium is almost in the center of Europe, it is easily reachable from all over Europe by train.

From London you can take the Eurostar to Brussels. The eurostar ticket includes the transfer with the train from Brussels to Gent. Website Eurostar .

By car

Of course, as Ghent is near the center of Europe, the car is always an option to consider. Also from the United Kingdom via the Eurotunnel. Website Eurotunnel .
