Although the car trip from Amsterdam to Brussels might seem small on a map, it's hiding big potential along its hidden trails. Only 108 miles separate the two bustling European capital cities. Yet the breathtaking countryside manages to fit in several sights that are sure to whet the appetite of every nature lover and travel enthusiast.
The adventure begins as Amsterdam's distinctive red brick buildings and unique architecture make way for the flatlands in the Dutch countryside. Tulips as vibrant as a painter's palette light up fields as far as the eye can see, and wooden windmills, the Netherlands' iconic symbol, scatter the landscape.
As you say goodbye to the Netherlands' warm hospitality, a new chapter of your northern European trip unfolds before you. The Kingdom of the Low Countries is a memory in your rearview mirror as hilly terrain rolls across Belgium. And you'll know you're at your final destination when mouthwatering Belgian chocolate stores begin to appear on every street corner.

About Brussels
The Comic City sits in the heart of Belgium along the river Senne. Its central location makes it a popular spot for people to travel from Amsterdam to Brussels. It's one of the smaller capital cities in Europe, spanning almost 63 square miles and home to 1.2 million of the nation's 11.7 million residents.
Today, it's one of the most valuable cities on the continent, as the region is the headquarters of the European Union. However, Brussels's significance dates back hundreds of years, when it began to flourish in the Middle Ages. It became a vital trading stop for travelers crossing to other European powerhouses at the time. Many would take a break here and trade goods at the main square.
Brussels' landlocked location played arguably the most influential role in shaping the area's culture. Belgium shares its border with four countries. The Netherlands in the north, Germany in the east, France in the west, and Luxemburg in the south all sandwich Europe's 15th smallest state. And each one's traditions have rubbed off on Brussels.
French, Dutch, and German are all official languages in the city. And even one in every three residents here fluently speaks English. The city's art and architecture are the most notable features of Brussels's melting pot of cultures. It's renowned for its Art Nouveau architecture, which is characterized by intricate designs, flowing lines, and organic motifs. Most of the world-renowned landmarks you see today are still in their original state, including the Grand Place, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in town.

To get the most out of this route, follow our insider travel tips from experienced divers and travel experts.
Do your homework
The journey from Amsterdam to Brussels will take between 1.5 and 3 hours. You can use this time to learn more about the city and enhance your overall experience.
If you book a door-to-door ride with Daytrip, your local driver will be more than happy to recommend bars, cafes, and attractions to visit or avoid. Or, you can relax in your private car with your favorite guidebook.
### Consider an alternative route
The main route from Amsterdam to Brussels is along the A27 and E19 motorways. These roads are the most time-efficient. However, you will miss the panoramic backroads and stunning attractions on the way.
If you're not in a rush, venture off the beaten path and explore ancient castles and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along with keeping your eyes happy, you'll keep your thrill-seekers in high spirits, too.
### Book tickets in advance
Amsterdam and Brussels are both bucket-list destinations near each other. They're also eco-conscious cities where locals prefer public transport to cars.
As a result, the train and bus can sell out in advance. To ensure your mode of transportation is available at your desired time and to save money, book your ticket at least 30 days in advance.

âJag anvĂ€nde denna tjĂ€nst för en transfer frĂ„n Split i Kroatien till Perast i Montenegro. Min upplevelse var exceptionell. Min chaufför Bojan var hjĂ€lpsam, informativ och sĂ„g till att min resa var bekvĂ€m och trevlig. Jag rekommenderar starkt denna tjĂ€nst.â
âVi var mycket nöjda med kvaliteten pĂ„ den service vi fick frĂ„n Day Trip. Vi hade tvĂ„ resor med Day Trip: den 31 augusti frĂ„n Aten till Lefkada och den 7 september frĂ„n Lefkada tillbaka till Aten. BĂ„da resorna inkluderade stopp vid natursköna platser i Grekland. BĂ„da förarna var utmĂ€rkta och tillmötesgĂ„ende. Vi vill dock sĂ€rskilt uppmĂ€rksamma Panos Peppas, som var vĂ„r förare frĂ„n Lefkada till Aten. Panos var otroligt trevlig och behaglig och levererade enastĂ„ende kundservice, som inkluderade att han tog hand om allt vĂ„rt bagage, gav oss kallt vatten under hela resan, försĂ„g oss med proteinbars, gav oss tryckt material om Korintkanalen (ett av de natursköna stoppen), tog reda pĂ„ och gav oss terminal- och gateinformation för vĂ„rt flyg hem, samt gav oss ett recept pĂ„ tzatziki.â

âVi Ă€lskar verkligen det hĂ€r företaget och har anvĂ€nt det mĂ„nga gĂ„nger genom Ă„ren för att ta oss frĂ„n A till B utan krĂ„nglet med att hyra bil sjĂ€lva. UtmĂ€rkta chaufförer varje gĂ„ng. Effektiva och professionella. Det Ă€r vĂ€rt varenda krona, och vi rekommenderar Ă€rligt Day Trip till alla. Deras femstjĂ€rniga betyg Ă€r vĂ€lförtjĂ€nt.â
âVi reste frĂ„n NĂŒrnberg till MĂŒnchen i en vacker Audi. Chauffören hĂ€mtade oss pĂ„ vĂ„rt hotell exakt vid den begĂ€rda tiden. Han fick oss till MĂŒnchen i god tid för vĂ„r nĂ€sta tur. Chauffören sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt.â
âGonzalo frĂ„n Daytrip var vĂ„r chaufför och han var helt fantastisk. Han gjorde allt för att hitta oss eftersom vĂ„r mobiltĂ€ckning var dĂ„lig. Han vĂ€ntade tĂ„lmodigt i lobbyn tills vi kom, sĂ„ att han kunde köra oss frĂ„n Tulum Dreams Resort till vĂ„rt andra hotell i CancĂșn, en och en halv timme bort nĂ€ra flygplatsen inför vĂ„r hemresa. Han var artig, respektfull och vĂ€nlig. Han sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt under hela resan. Snabb och effektiv. Jag rekommenderar detta företag eftersom det inte Ă€r lĂ€tt eller billigt att hitta en enkelresa frĂ„n Tulum till CancĂșn, och detta företag erbjuder en utmĂ€rkt tjĂ€nst till ett bra pris. Jag kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda dem igen nĂ€r jag Ă€r i omrĂ„det CancĂșn/Tulum. Tack DayTrip och Gonzalo.â
âMarianna hĂ€mtade oss för att köra oss frĂ„n Heraklion till Chania. VĂ€dret var hemskt, och pĂ„ grund av detta kom Marianna nĂ„gra minuter sent. Hon kontaktade mig för att meddela det. Marianna bor i Chania och gjorde resan vĂ€ldigt intressant genom att berĂ€tta om lokala sevĂ€rdheter och saker att göra i Chania. Marianna Ă€r en sĂ€ker förare och vi kĂ€nde oss alla trygga med bĂ„de hastigheten och hur bra hon körde i det kraftiga regnet. Hon Ă€r en underbar person och talar flytande engelska. Vi rekommenderar verkligen Daytrip, och om du Ă€r i Heraklion eller Chania, se till att frĂ„ga efter Marianna.â
âI had never used DayTrip before my recent trip to Amsterdam and Belgium. Not knowing the region, I engaged Daytrip for a driver from Amsterdam to Brussels. From my first interaction they were professional and courteous. 24 hours before my departure I requested changes to our journey and they accommodated us easily. Our driver (Juan) made the trip an unbelievable experience. His story telling and knowledge of the region was just amazing! His car was lovely and clean and came with water and chargers as we needed. I will recommend Daytrip to friends, family and colleagues and I would highly recommend if in the area ask for Juan as you will be thrilled! Thanks to Team Daytrip and Juan!!!â

âReasonable prices. Good drivers. Third time Iâve used daytrip. Madelon was a great and friendly driver with lots of helpful information. Better than a limo service. And less expensive.â
âWe used DayTrip to take us from Amsterdam to Brussels with a side trip to Antwerp. Juan was a great driver and was such a good host on our journey. I would not hesitate to use this company again.â
