How far is Arizona from Texas driving?

My family and I are visiting some relatives in Arizona. We plan to drive there so I wanted to know how far it is.

That sounds fun! The distance between Texas and Arizona is around 826 miles via I-10 E. It will take 13 hours and 19 minutes to drive non-stop, depending on the road conditions.
Making sure your car is in good working condition for the trip is important. Check your tires, signals, brakes, and fluids, and tune up your car before leaving—you don’t want to get stranded with car troubles on your way to Arizona!
We definitely recommend splitting the travel over two or three days if your schedule allows for it, to avoid getting burnt out. Below are a few tips for your long drive:
  • Rotate drivers—Divide up the trip so that each drive takes a section to allow the other to rest
  • Plan breaks—This will allow you to stretch, refresh, and use the washroom
  • Bring entertainment—Load up your favorite playlists and movies/games for the kids
  • Visit attractions—Make your drive more interesting with pit-stops to attractions along the way
  • Pack snacks and drinks—Have your favorite snacks and drinks to tide you over until the next meal!
