How far is Kentucky from Florida driving?
My friends are planning a big road trip, and they want to meet in Kentucky to start. I’d also like to go, but I don’t know if I’ll have time for a road trip if I need a few days to get to Kentucky. How far is Kentucky from Florida driving?

Driving from Kentucky to Florida takes about 12 hours and 45 minutes without any traffic. But it’s a great place to start a
road trip
! So it may be worth the drive if you can make it.Kentucky
qualifies as a southeastern state, but it also marks the end of the south. As such a central location, it serves as an ideal starting point for any trips heading to the Northeast, Southeast, East, or Midwest of the continental United States. Plus, since you’re from Florida, looping back to Kentucky at the end would make for a reasonably easy drive back home!Keep in mind that long drives don’t need to take more than a few days. Even though an almost 13-hour drive can seem like a lot, it’s really just two six-and-a-half-hour drives over two days. Or even a 9-hour drive and a 4-hour drive! Learning to break down your trip into manageable chunks is key to planning a worthwhile road trip.
So if you really want to go, consider budgeting 2 or 3 days for your drive to Kentucky, and finding some fun stops along the way! Road trips are 15% destination and 85% journey, so it’s important to enjoy the drive itself. But before you hit the road, make sure you have the car insurance coverage you need with
