How far is Texas from Georgia if you're driving?

I just got a job offer in Dallas, but I want to scope out the city a little bit before I agree to the position. I want to make the drive from Atlanta because I’ll be going back and forth to visit family for the foreseeable future. How long does it take to drive to Texas from Georgia?

Texas is around 800 miles from Georgia if you’re driving from Atlanta to Dallas. This will take about 11 hours by car.
Because of the lengthy journey, you may want to break up your trip into two or more days. By doing so, you can drive safely and attentively while also checking out a few neat pit stops.
Some of the best things to do between Atlanta and Dallas include:
  • Grabbing a bite to eat at the Mayflower Cafe in Jackson, Mississippi, which has been open since 1935.
  • Taking a walk through Biedenharn Museum and Gardens in Monroe, Louisiana.
  • Finishing off your trip by exploring the uniquely bizarre Deep Ellum neighborhood in Dallas.
If you decide to take the job, just make sure that you switch your insurance over from Georgia to Texas. To get the best rate, use the
