Default how to get to Naples

We want to visit someone in Naples. When I goggle it, I-75 to 93, about 3.75 hours. Is there a better way to go? Thanks.

1. Speed wise?

2. Scenery? (and how long)

3. Things you don't miss stopping in on the way?

I'm gonna bet it will take you closer to 4.15. And there's lotsa beautiful stuff to see along the way and good places to stop...just depends on how long you wanna make the trip. Once you get to Naples tho, definitely go down to the beach, maybe Fishermans Wharf, if my memory serves me...well your friend will know all about Naples. But you pass Punta Gorda on the way (where Hurricane Charlie hit the worst in 04), beautiful little town, and Arcadia, nice antiquing town...plenty in Ft.Myers/Cape Coral area, the Edison/Ford Winter Estates... It is a beautiful ride...and Naples is fabulous. Enjoy.

And, if you go a little further, you will end up in Everglades City. The Everglades Natl Park has some relaxing boat tours. Beautiful area.
