Florida is a “long” state, and I’ve driven all over it – from north to south and east to west. Road trips can be long and getting around can feel intimidating and overwhelming. Thankfully, Florida transportation options are plentiful.
Depending on where you plan on staying or starting your Florida adventure, each major city has an international airport with plenty of transportation choices to get you to your destination.
