Anyone Done the Drive From WDW to HHI?

[Lexxiefern]

We will be driving from SSR to HHI in March. Anyone done this before? How long is it?

Thanks!

You can get there in about 5 hours speeding mildly with one pit stop.

336 miles - About 5 1/2 hours (or less depending on stops, traffic, and how fast you drive).

We've done the reverse going from HHI to Old Key West. It's an easy day's drive.

Lots of times---ITA with the Geyser Gazer: 5 hours door to door, with one quick stop for gas. Haven't gotten a ticket yet, so while we go fast, we aren't crazy. Watch out in GA, I think they are balancing their state budget on speeding tickets.

Another tip: leave early in the morning. Less traffic, better time, and you arrive at WDW in time to do a half day at the parks. This tip is imperative if you make the drive during the summer months, especially on a Saturday.

Thanks for the answer! When I did a search on mapquest it said 7 + hours!! Glad to know it will only be 5 1/2. Thanks!

I agree with Mapquest. They've obviously figured in my stops at the Beltz Outlets in St Augustine, my stop st the Florida Welcome Center, stop for breakfast or lunch and gas.

Seriously, over 30 trips, with no traffic we've done under 5 hours and with bad traffic and construction almost 7 hours.
