Directions from Orlando and Sanford airports to Highway 27
We have tried many routes from both Orlando and Sanford airports to our home just off highway 27 but the one that we have found best for both little traffic and quite nice views is as described below. Although the 417 is a toll road, the cost is only around $7 or $8 from the start just by the airport, to where it joins the I4 by the Mickey ears pylon. Of course, you can also get of the I4 at Junction 58 which will lead you on to Champions Gate. Next time you are in Florida why not try the route as below from the airports listed, see what you think.
