How far is Boston from Toronto if you’re driving?
My husband and I have relatives who just moved from Vancouver to Toronto. We’re planning a little family road trip to go see them! We live in Boston. How far will the drive to Toronto be?

That’s very exciting—I hope they’re settling in well after their move! The quickest route from
Boston
to Toronto covers 550 miles, which will take about 8 1/2 hours to drive.Of course, there are a few factors that will impact your drive time. The two main ones are how much traffic you run into and which route you take:
- Traffic: Though there are a few spots where you might hit some traffic on the way—Albany and Syracuse, for example—your main concern will be leaving Boston and arriving in Toronto. If your kids aren’t up for an early morning road trip, aim for Saturday or Sunday for the smoothest driving conditions.
- Your route: The fastest route follows I-90 through upstate New York. Best of all, it winds through Niagara Falls for an unforgettable family pit-stop! If you want a scenic route, you could also try I-81, which will wrap around the north side of Lake Ontario. That way, you can miss the tourist traffic jams while only adding 30 minutes to your trip.
