How far is Maryland from Boston when driving?

My boyfriend goes to school at Loyola in Baltimore, and I want to surprise him for his birthday. How long does it take to drive to Maryland from Boston?

That’s such a sweet idea! Maryland is around 400 miles from Boston when driving. That means it will probably take you about seven hours to get to Baltimore, depending on traffic.
Keep in mind this timeframe doesn’t include
stopping for food
and gas, which you’ll have to do at least once along the way.
If you’re worried about the length of the drive, here are some tips:
  • Get a good night sleep the night before so it’ll be easier to
    stay awake
    behind the wheel
  • Drink lots of water and a caffeinated beverage or two (if you tolerate caffeine well)
  • Leave in the morning so you can complete the drive in the daylight
  • Keep the temperature inside your car lower or roll down your windows to avoid getting drowsy
Most importantly, make sure you have great car insurance before hitting the road.
