What’s the best route from Memphis to Orlando?

I want to take my 7-year-old to Disneyland this summer, but I’m not comfortable on planes. If we want to go by car, what’s the best route from Memphis to Orlando?

It usually takes between 12 and 15 hours to travel from
Memphis
to
Orlando
by car, so it’s a good idea to do the trip over two days. Here’s the most direct route between the two cities:
  • Take I-22 to
    Birmingham
    , Alabama, and then take I-65 to
    Montgomery
  • Get on I-85 N and drive until you hit exit 42 to get on US-80 E
  • Take US-80 E to US-280 E
  • Continue on US-280 E until you hit I-75 S
  • Take I-75 S to the Florida Turnpike
  • Take the Florida Turnpike to Orlando
Before you head for the happiest place on earth, make sure you’re prepared for the long drive with healthy snacks, a good navigation app, and other
road trip essentials
—including a
car insurance
policy with
roadside assistance
.
