Tolls from Miami to Orlando
 

I'm visiting Orlando in November and I'm trying to decide which way to go from Miami. I haven't been to Miami in almost 5 years so I don't know if there are any changes I should consider. Which would you recommend? Taking the Florida's Turnpike (which has a lot of tolls) or just plain old I-95?
Any of you know how much money in coins I should take if I choose the Turnpike?

Paulie--
By all means take the turnpike!!
I think it's around $15.00 from Orlando to Miami, but it is money well spent. I really would avoid I-95 for that trip.

Try mapquest.com.No tolls doesn't necessarily mean cheaper.

Take the TURNPIKE , I95 is a mess. It is close to $23 dollars now....no need to take that much in change, just pay the attendants with dollar bills.

Is it really $23? Last time we did the turnpike from Miami to Orlando back in December, it was under $12.

The turnpike will take you around 3 hours. I-95 would easily take you six hours.

Tolls for a 2 axle vehicle from I-4 in Orlando to the Dolphin Expressway in Miami are $16.70.

As miguelgcuadra said, no need to take any change at all.

I-95 is really a mess, especially in the West Palm area. Also, people tend to drive really fast on the turnpike. The last couple times I've driven up, I drive about 85 mph on the remote sections and people blow past me like I'm standing still.

Correction, last December we got on the turnpike at Stuart (we were in Palm Beach) and it was under $12 from Stuart to Orlando.

Thank you all for your replies!! I'll definitely take the Turnpike and save myself the hassle and a couple hours of driving.
