i95 from miami to Kissimmee
We’ve done this route a long time ago when we went on a tour of Florida but we’ll be straight out Miami airport and heading up to the villa in Kissimmee and wondered does it have any tolls along it?

We went straight up the 27, toll free, came back on the turnpike and it was £7.50 ish in tolls inc the Alamo sevice charge. Not much in it really, both 2 lane dual carriageways, Turnpike more like a motorway, slip road entry/exit, We left Miami airport at 5:30pm on a Sunday and arrived on I Drive around 10 ish, left Disney Springs at 1:30pm again Sunday arrived back at the airport at 5:45pm, 2 stops each way, smoke, stretch legs etc.
If you put the route into Google Maps and click on options, there is the choice to avoid tolls. |

Thanks pompeyboy yes I’ve been looking at the routes without tolls and it’s coming up with the us27 to the left and i95 to the right heading up, it says the i95 route is 20-30 mins quicker but I’m not sure with all the busy looking towns it passes on the right like Fort Lauderdale etc!
I can’t decide lol but I know we won’t be doing the turnpike as I’ve done that before and it’s so boring! |

waiting impatiently...!

I've driven up I-95, it's quite busy with trucks because of it being toll free but it didn't bother me. I came off it where it meets the 192 and drove straight into Kissimmee.

27 straight through, towns patrol garages to break up the drive and stop you getting bored. Remember circle k for dollar big gulps

Thanks guys I think we’ll try the us27 heading up then as we’ve not been that way before and will be interesting driving through all those little towns lol

Another for the 27 done it a few times and doing it again this year, very little traffic some stretches there is nothing but open road with views for mile.
We have seen a few gators at the road side on a few occasions. We try to make it to Clewiston and take a stop there

We went on the i95 on the way and 27 on the way back, the 27 was quicker as there was no traffic whatsoever. The i95 was a Friday afternoon and took hours going out of Miami with the traffic and the rain x
