Never updated still have directions on non existing roads, wrong roads numbers, wrong turns conducing to terrible neighborhoods

Amazing when you are driving for over 13 hours on unfamiliar roads the first time in any foreign country

We were continually wondering whether we were on the correct road, which we usually were, but the numbers were wrong.

It also miscounted several roundabout exits and had us going off on the wrong road, causing a lot of backtracking.

Both units tell you to take city streets that are pedestrian only or take you down one lane, two-way, sometimes scenic farm roads or harrowing mountain roads theoretically to save a split-second or more on your travel time when you might prefer a highway or 2-lane street.

The alternative routing helps get around closed, blocked, or otherwise objectionable roads or traffic

Eventually we followed the next 3 roundabouts' directions toward a city near Cesky Krumlov and ended up on a slower more minor road, but still got where we were going after the GPS recalculated once it realized what we were doing

Rather than being faster, these roads were slower since we were driving on poorly maintained dirt roads

Was excellent at directing us though crazy roads and routes in cities for the most part- especially all the roundabouts..

More than happy, certainly takes the stress away when traveling on unknown roads.

I heard other complaints on some of the chips for Garmin europe and I was confused on the differences, but as a heavy user of a Garmin for work I can say that these maps worked just as well as in the US

Great seller thank you A×+++++

While in Europe I used the GPS with this chip in Italy, France and Sicily and it worked just the same as if I were at home

A very patient Garmin Tech Support person talked me through the process of downloading and installing a Nuvi firmware update (which also required downloading and updating a Microsoft program in order to proceed), and now everything works as it should.

In summary, I found the Garmin to work exactly as it had in the US.

The maps were as good as, and sometimes better than, Google
