1 out of 5 stars.  Barely better than free maps, June 4, 2010
We rented a car in Rome, and the only map they had was a country map (if you rent in Florence, they have a Tuscany map). The Italy map had almost as much detail as this map (this map was a little easier to read because the region was enlarged). Driving in Tuscany is tricky - the intersections usually only have the next town, and not the road numbers. The next town will usually be too small to show up on this map, and many of the small roads aren't on here either. Most intersections will just be a list of places that aren't on this map. Never let your gas get below 1/4 tank because you'll get lost a lot, and never know when you'll be able to fill up again (this is probably good advice even with a good map).

5 out of 5 stars.  helpful map of Tuscany, March 25, 2010
I love these streetwise maps. They make travel so easy. Small enough to keep on your lap, so you don't have to unfold and refold a bulky travel road map. Not as detailed, but there aren't so many streets in Tuscany that that issue presents a problem.

5 out of 5 stars.  Don't Leave Home Without It, January 8, 2010
We've used this map series in many places, and highly recommend it for ease of use and TRANSPORT. It's also durable, and we've wouldn't travel without it.

5 out of 5 stars.  Under the Tuscan Sun, January 18, 2009
I stopped to write a review when I read the other ones you have posted. I have to disagree with them completely. I have always relied on Streetwise and this map was no exception. It helped us both in the car and on foot, and we never had a complication. In quaint areas such as this I think you will always have discrepincies, even still we had a fabulous visit without any confusion. Actually, it would have been lovely to be lost there! But that was not the case.

2 out of 5 stars.  Small is not always best, May 29, 2008
If you are serious about driving through Tuscany, you will need something more than this map, which is pretty basic. Fine if you intend to travel only on the autostrade and other main roads, but one of the joys of driving in this region is finding small roads, sometimes unpaved, which can lead to small medieval hamlets (known as 'borghe')that have remained basically unchanged for centuries.

There are a number of excellent maps produced but in my many travels in Italy, I have always found the maps produced by the Touring Club Italiano (TCI), and distinguished by the bright green cover with the TCI logo, to be unfailingly brilliant. Difficult to find in this country, they are widely available at gas stations, newsstands, and the like, in Italy.
