Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent For Trip Planning Comment: This map is an excellent choice for trip and route planning, particularly in Wales. Information on Welsh roads can be very difficult especially up in the Snowdonia region. This map is an excellent scale (1:400,000) with plenty of detail for planning, but not so much as to be distracting. I used it extensively for planning a Welsh holiday, and recommend it highly. Customer Rating: Summary: This map gets you everywhere! Comment: When we first looked at this map, we didn't think it would be accurate. Once we arrived in Scotland, we realized that it was extremely accurate, there are just not that many roads there as we are used to in the US. I would recommend this to anyone traveling in Scotland. Customer Rating: Summary: Michelin knows their stuff Comment: Set to the same scale as a lot of the very good Michelin maps, this map covers all of Scotland with enough detail to make traveling the country easy. It can give you a sense of how far Loch Ness really is from Edinburgh, points out the scenic roads, main roads, back roads; has good detail on the islands; and covers from the border with England up to the top of the country. Any specific city like Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, etc, will require a more detailed map, obtained locally, but this map is very good for planning and getting around. Main thing to remember, you can end up going much slower in the Highlands than you think, in some areas 25 mph average speed because of the roads twisting or being single track. On the other hand, I was going 70 for a while, keeping up with traffic, in a glen above Loch Lommond. The roads are in good condition, and driving on the left is not the hardest thing about driving in Britian; it is getting used to how narrow the lanes are.
The roads are safe, the countryside more beautiful than you think, even if you rent a car only for one day to head out it is worth it, and this map is excellent.
I have leanred, never ask driving directions from someone waiting for a bus. Customer Rating: Summary: Top Map Comment: Get this - you'll need it.........
