About the Florida Turnpike

The Florida Turnpike is a 312-mile toll highway running from Interstate 75 in Wildwood south to Homestead near Miami. Through Central Florida, the Turnpike passes through Osceola and Orange counties, providing a north-south alternative to I-95 and I-75. The highway is one of the most traveled toll roads in the country.

Toll Information

The Florida Turnpike uses electronic tolling with SunPass transponders and toll-by-plate for vehicles without transponders. Toll-by-plate adds a surcharge to the base toll. From Orlando to Fort Lauderdale, tolls total approximately $20 to $25 each way. BusBrother charter service includes all tolls in the quoted price.

Central Florida Exits

Key Central Florida exits include the I-4 interchange in Orlando, the SR-528 (Beachline) connection for Port Canaveral, the US-192 exit for Kissimmee and Disney, and the SR-429 connector for western Orange County. The Turnpike is the fastest route from Orlando to South Florida.

Orlando to South Florida

The drive from Orlando to Fort Lauderdale via the Florida Turnpike covers approximately 200 miles and takes about 3 to 3.5 hours. This is the primary route for cruise passengers heading to Port Everglades. BusBrother provides comfortable group charter service along this corridor.
