Hi we have driven to WDW many many time since my youngest was 2 and she is now 16. We have tried AAA trip pic and many different rts .We think the one I am listing below is the best , nice highways, nice rest stops ,good traffice flow. When we did the 95 rt I would cringe everytime we had to use a bathroom on the NJ turnpike (gross). Stopping to pay tolls every 10 miles was no fun either, and no matter what time we hit the Tappen Z there was a 2 hr back up, noit to metion driving through Harlem in the middle of the night. Things may have change since we have not taken 95 for sometime now but I love this other route and you can ask AAA to map it out for you. In milage it is 50 miles longer but in time it about the same on a little less. We have made the drive straight through in 23-24 hrs also have stayed over night at South of the boared I know some crindge at that place but we have had good luck a big room that had two beds and a pull out sofa good for us as we are 5. and indoor pool so no matter the weather the kids go to burn off some energy in the pool huge gift shop to brouse and get the kids if they were good some cheap trinkets.and have a good chuckle at some of the stuff they have. We have not found anywhere there that we want to eat at so we packed some Kentucy fried chicken and took it with us. got up the next more and got on the road ate breakfest at Clarks resturant about an hour from SOB then to Fw by 1 am or so. The route is from Melrose we take
128 to 90 to 84 w
84 w to Rt 81 south
81 S to 66 E
66 E to 17 E
17 E to 95 S
95 S to Rt 4 to DW
Good luck ,drive safe, have fun.
