Customer Reviews

not updated don't count on it
if you want a general view of the algarve the map is good. any more i recommend to look for another map.
good luck

Used by the locals !
Do not buy the tourist maps available when you arrive, they are old, the wrong scale and no good for finding your way around the countryside. We live on the Algarve and use this map. I have recommended it to many others and all find it extremely good. No map is bang up to date and this one is the best we have found. The contours and spot heights are clearly shown. Get away from the, admittedly gorgeous, beaches and explore the hills and villages inland with this map. If you want only tarmac roads, stay at home !

Don't count on this map
Just got back from the Algarve.

This map is ok if you just want a rough (no pun intended) idea of what the Algarve looks like.

It claims to have contour lines, well I didn't find any.

It certainly does not show road surfacing, tracks can be tarmacked and roads can be tracks as for finding your way using the map forget it! The mapping of the roads around towns is appalling and secondary roads are not in the right place.

As I haven't seen any other maps I cannot say that this is worse than others on the market, just that it isn't very good!
