What’s the best driving route from Massachusetts to Florida?
I got a week off from work last minute and I kind of want to use it to drive down to Florida for a few days. I live in the Boston area. What's the best driving route from Massachusetts to, let’s say, Orlando, Florida?

Using your (sudden) vacation time for an impromptu Florida road trip sounds like a great plan!
- Take I-90 W out of Boston
- Get on I-95 S in Weston, MA
- Continue on I-95 S throughRhode Island,Connecticut,New York,New Jersey,Delaware,Maryland,Washington D.C.,Virginia,North Carolina,South Carolina,Georgia, and into Florida
Yes, it is that simple. The I-95 is one of the longer highways in the country—passing through a total of 16 states! That said, it’s also one of the busiest. If you want to avoid hitting rush hour in
Providence
, New York
, Baltimore
, and D.C.
you’ll want to time your trip so that you’re heading out of Boston around 6am. For a less early start, you can also try avoiding major cities by taking a more western route via I-90 W, I-84 W, I-81 S, I-77 S, and I-26 E to join up to I-95 S outside of
Charleston
. But, I-95 S is definitely the easier route to remember. The app instantly analyzes quotes from over 55 top insurers to pinpoint the best rates available to you. The average user ends up saving more than $800 a year on
car insurance
, so it’s definitely worth a look to keep you protected for less on your travels! View full answer
