Bought this for first-ever trip to Budapest. Type terribly tiny, and I would have returned it, but thought it might be good "insurance" in case I really got lost! Never did. Why?The hotels (we stayed at the "Castle" Hilton) have plenty of free maps in English for writing on ('you are here, and here's how you get to where you're going'). The front desk folks gave us several over the course of our stay. The free maps worked great. We also used the maps in our very excellent tour book about Budapest.I'm barely 50 and only need glasses for reading. The last thing I want to do when navigating is to whip out reading glasses and squint at a map. I think this map really isn't for tourists--it's for someone visiting and staying in a residential area and needing much more detail than the average tourist. Save your bucks. Prices in Budapest are pretty reasonable, and you'll have plenty of opportunity to spend the money on great meals, and admission to the many great places to see and learn at, and then soak in one of the many Turkish baths in Budapest. Aaaahhhh!Left this map (and the useless one we bought for Vienna) in the room, not bothering to pack them back home. Maybe a resident of Budapest can use it.
I happily used this map for my November 2008 trip. This map is first-rate -- the streets are clearly marked, the major destinations are labeled properly and placed correctly. I also found the inset map of central Pest (and where many of the major sights are) to be very helpful, with virtually all of the smallest streets marked. This map and my camera were really all I needed for many fine days of sightseeing in Budapest.
An excellent map - easy to read and to fold. Highly recommended.
The idea is nice but the ability to read the street names, find specific intersections is semi lacking. Depending on your needs (extent of city, small streets) this map will hold up in the rain/abuse of constant use.
Agree with previous comments, awkward layout that requires constant flipping. Also the portion of the city that is shown at a larger scale is not particularly helpful, I would have preferred the whole map be at the same scale. But despite it's drawbacks, the map will still get you from point a to point b.
This map was a travel necessity. What a lifesaver, Budapest was a challange but Streetwise was very easy to use and helped us to get around. very durable!
Good price!! Good quality!!... I liked, it is small (thin) enough to pack and transport locally or overseas, big enough to be read as a passenger when traveling by train, airplane, bus, or car. I definetley will make my travel information map purchases at this site!! Also. delivery was before promissed by .
I LOVE the Streetwise maps! They show the major attractions, hotels, parks,transportation line, etc per city and are very sturdy. I can carry them in my purse and not worry that thy will be crumpled or illegible! I will keep getting these for major cities I visit that I don't know. Can study them PRIOR to my visit and pretty much know the basic layout before I travel there.
