Disney world in september

[Dondevers]

At a stead pace of 65 it should only take a total of under 20 hours to make it to Disney. 8 hours of driving a day and your there in under 2 days. Remeber you only will have to stop for gas when necessary everything else your carrying!

My only advice to you is if you are not used to driving in HEAVY traffic esp in Orlando don’t try it. We were there yesterday and traffic was horrendous....5 lanes, bumper to bumper, 2 hrs to go 35 miles. I was in my SUV and it still drove me nuts and I’m only 72

I can drive 500 miles every day. 700 if I want to. I was a trucker for 25 yrs. You can't do that starting out.
Many are buying an RV and not used to pulling a trailer or driving a motorhome, only being used to a car or light pickup. We are creatures of habit. Road construction, accidents, weather, can derail your best laid plans if you can plan the times when you have to go through cities, try to avoid work traffic.Driving many miles at a time is hard on people that aren't used to doing it. If you feel like stopping sooner, do it.You'll be more rested for the next day's travel. We usually wear ourselves out with all the work it takes getting the trip in order and packing up. If you need to overnight somewhere , find a flying J truck stop.They have RV parking and everything you need.Do a search for them on your route.
Try to enjoy the journey.After all, this is why we buy these things! I always think, Safety First!!.
Happy Trails.

I wasn't a trucker for 25 years but ^^ is some very good advice. The journey is part of the vacation. Slow down and enjoy.

You may like riding in the RV with A/C better than being outside in the September heat in central FL.

We live in Brevard NC and drive to a wonderful campground called Lake Harmony in Townsend Ga. then a little over 4 hours to DW. Ask for #50 and it overlooks the lake, only 37.00 a day. We like it so well there we stay two days coming and going.
Too long a drive to go alll the way pulling a 351RSTS
Enjoy!

Don’t overdrive your capabilities. Tiredness is a major cause of accidents. Your body can only withstand so much. It doesn’t matter what other drivers have done or are doing. Only do what you are comfortable doing yourself. Some states even charge overtired drivers with DUIs. They are changing Intoxicated to Impaired. I usually pull off the road around 4:30 a5pm. No matter how many miles I have driven. Also remember RVs take more time to stop or recover from a incident than cars.

I think it has more to do where you're going. I dread Columbia SC I20 East side. Also any big city is going to slow you up at rush hours.

We take the Grayhawk 29MV down to Disney’s Fort Wilderness 5-6 times a year (just got back from this year’s trip #2 about two hours ago).

We make a day drive out of it from Atlanta, GA (482 miles each way), and I am exhausted upon arrival at either end (and I’m a “spry” 39 years old).

For many of our trips, we leave at 3:00 a.m. so far, we have only made 350ish mile trips doing this, so we arrive mid-day.
This helps us get ahead of city traffic, and since the kids are asleep in the back seat (buckled), they don’t have to use the restroom until they wake up and we are on the other side of Houston.
Map it and see if leaning early might work for you.
Even if it’s a two-day trip, you can arrive earlier on the second travel day at Disney.
