how long is the drive from NYC to Toronto, Canada?

Answer 1

I haven't done it but I have been told to allow 8 hours for the drive, a stop or two and to clear the border.

Answer 2

I have done it.
It takes about seven hours

Answer 3

New York City, Toronto. 8 Hours. Did it many times. Count for traffic at Tarrytown, and count on some of the most boring roads you will ever drive- snoozers. Either drink coffee, play music loud, open windows, or do all.
