Another vote for Google maps from me, I download the maps to use offline also to save on data! Google even helped us find the scooter place which was on a industrial estate when we had an issue with my dad ECV! The guy was very impressed we had managed to find it when we arrived!

But if you want Leu Gardens for instance and you're sitting in the hotel car park just start writing Leu and it should autocomplete. Press go or something like that and it will show you route options. Select one and off you go.

Thank you
Will sit and see if I can find where to download maps on it, unfortunately does not seem anywhere obvious, but hey that could be me

Google maps. So simple and easy to use.

A good chance your car might have Android Auto or apple car play too so you can use your maps with that.

That's good. Just got back from being out all afternoon and I checked on Joan's phone to see how to do it - but you're OK now.

I normally use Navmii but last year I got slightly paranoid and loaded Google Maps too. For the drive up from Miami I used Google last year and it was great. The only advantage to Navmii is it shows the speed limit. Having said that, I have known it to be wrong on several occasions. Just remember to download the maps for both before you go and turn data roaming off on your phone if you don’t want a large bill for data usage abroad.
