Rick Steves' Germany, Austria, and Switzerland Map: Including Berlin, Munich, Salzburg and Vienna City Map – Folded Map, January 24, 2007

Just what I needed. Great value

Helpful in just getting a general direction when GPS not correct because of road construction. Warning is that it doesn't have all of the roads (just major) but this was helpful when trying to reroute a GPS that keeps wanting to go back to a road blocked by construction.

this map was a big help in planning a 2 week trip in Bavaria, Alsace France,Switzerland and Austria.easy to read and a very good source for locating towns villages along the way

First and foremost, to clarify, this product that you are supposedly reading reviews for is Rick Steves' MAP of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It appears that the other reviews are of Rick Steves' guidebooks! Again, this product is NOT one of Rick Steves' famous guidebooks (which I would always rate as 5 stars, incidentally!). This map is very basic; don't count on using it to find your way around a country or city. Only the major cities and towns are marked. Likewise, in the city maps of Berlin, Munich, Salzburg and Vienna, only the major thoroughfares are mapped. You should use this map only as a reference to his guidebook of the region to plan your trip. You will want to get a 'real' map that's much more detailed, e.g. Michelin, when you arrive. Best part of this map? The cool water resistant paper on which it is printed. Especially if you have small children who are apt to spill liquid, as mine did on Day One upon receiving it from Amazon!

Details and small print. It's rather heavy but I'm taking it with me in my carryon. I like it.

Excellent map. Helps you navigate your trip to Switzerland, Austria and Germany. Shows train and highway routes.

Glad I bought it. GPS was great to use while I was in Germany, but it I liked being able to see where we wanted to go see on a actual map!!

I just received this map from Amazon today and I can't believe I just paid $7 for a thin paper map that I could have easily gotten at any tourist information center in Europe for free and with more information!Please be aware that some of the reviews for this might have been written for a different product. This is an one-page (double sided) thin paper map. Not a book.I knew this was only a map when I ordered but I didn't realize just how poor the paper quality is! I was hoping for a good quality laminate map. This thing looks as if it's going to fall apart before I even get on the road! I've always been a big Rick Steve fan but this time I'm extremely disappointed.In short, save your $$$ and go get free maps from a AAA office or tourist information center around where you are going!
