Viewed by 69 travelers

Day 1: Long Drive

Baltimore, MD → Orlando, FL on April 29, 2025

2:00PM

Depart Baltimore

Leave Baltimore with a full tank and essentials packed; head south on I-95 S. Maintain a steady speed (~75–80 mph) and use cruise where safe for best ETA.
CURRENCY0, 0h15m.

4:15PM

Quick Stretch & Snack — Richmond area

Short 10–20 minute stop near Richmond for a restroom break and quick coffee/snack; look for travel plazas or exits with Burger King, Starbucks, or McDonald's. Most highway travel plazas are open late, but hours vary—confirm before you stop.
CURRENCY6, 0h15m.

5:52PM

Refuel & Rest — Rocky Mount / Emporia corridor (≈300 miles)

Planned full fuel stop at ~300 miles to reset your range; choose a 24/7 truck/travel plaza (Pilot/Flying J, TA/Petro or Love's) for predictable pumps, restrooms and vending. Nearby fast-food options (McDonald's, Wendy's, Taco Bell) provide quick warm meals — many travel centers are open 24/7, but confirm individual restaurant hours.
CURRENCY50, 0h40m.

6:32PM

Resume Southbound

Back on I-95 S after refueling and a short walk to refresh for the longer overnight leg toward Savannah/Jacksonville.
CURRENCY0, 0h10m.

9:44PM

Dinner & Second Full Fuel — Savannah / Pooler area (≈600-mile mark)

Plan a longer stop near Savannah or Pooler to refuel at another major travel plaza and eat dinner. If you arrive before ~10:00PM, Chick-fil-A (typical hours ~6:30AM–10:00PM Mon–Sat; closed Sun) is an option; otherwise Taco Bell, McDonald's, and local 24/7 diners or Waffle House are reliable late-night choices. Travel plazas here normally operate 24/7 for fuel and restrooms.
CURRENCY18, 0h45m.

10:29PM

Continue toward Florida

Leave the Savannah area refreshed and fueled for the final overnight stretch into northern Florida, keeping breaks short to maintain momentum.
CURRENCY0, 0h10m.

1:37AM

Late-night Refuel & Short Rest — Jacksonville / St. Augustine area (≈900-mile mark)

Final planned refill near Jacksonville or St. Augustine so you arrive in Orlando with a comfortable margin; pick a 24/7 station (Shell, BP, Exxon) or travel plaza and grab a late-night bite at Waffle House (commonly 24/7) or a 24-hour McDonald's if needed. Verify hours for any specific restaurant before relying on it.
CURRENCY45, 0h30m.

2:07AM

Final Leg to Orlando

Drive the final segment on I-95 S then transition onto I-4 W toward your Orlando destination; stay alert—this is late-night driving so consider a short caffeine break if needed.
CURRENCY0, 1h38m.

3:45AM

Arrive Orlando

Estimated arrival in Orlando very early morning — expect ~12 hours driving + ~1.75–2 hours of stops depending on exact timing and traffic. Check into a hotel with 24-hour front desk service or use early check-in options if needed, then rest.
