National Geographic Britain and Ireland Wall Map - Classic - Laminated (23.5 x 30.25 in) (National Geographic Reference Map)

I was looking for a pinball map to showcase the places I have been in France. I mounted it to a corkboard, and it works very well. I wish I could’ve gotten a map that included a little more of western Europe, but this is working nicely for my France travels. I like it because it shows a lot of the smaller cities and not just the big ones!

This map gives clear views of roadways and county names. I am going to take a trip to England and while it is a guided tour I wanted to know where we would go, and what to expect. This map is very clear, very detailed, and it allows me follow the route we will follow. It is almost perfect for my needs. Because it is so detailed, the print is tiny and I had to use a magnifying glass to map my route. More a problem with aging eyes than the map. I am glad I bought it.

Exactly what I was looking for. Planning a trip to the area without being able to see the big picture is frustrating. This provides both the big picture and sufficient detail to understand car/train/bus trade-offs fairly clearly, although the routing of buses and trains are not shown, one can look at timetables, etc., on the internet and get a good feel with map in hand. Nicely, this map does include the slice of Scotland we will be visiting, so the whole picture comes into view for me. The lamination appears quite good, and as we continue our planning, we will use some sort of sticker to mark our waypoints. I have not yet tried dry erase markers, but if they work, it will be perfect.

Even if you have been reading about history, news and fiction set in these islands, this fine map outshines those small black-and-white sketches as well as the best HD maps served up by Google or even a digital atlas. At the other extreme, Michelin drivers' maps of far away places set out the strange sounding names - and show some of the Crusader castles atop every strategic high ground in the a Holy Land as tourist stops - but both Peoria and Jericho are more real as places in a National Geographic map. Even the sainted ordinance survey maps, and even if you fully read topographic same-altitude lines, may lose the landscape by highlighting every intermittent water course. Even if you rotate the map hanging near your comfortable chair, or keep a dozen neatly rolled and you remember to grab the right one as needed, this map will help you integrate memory, fiction and geography.

Liked the accuracy and details, plus the laminated cover allows dry race markers to be used.

I’m dreaming of a good long trip to the British Isles, and read a lot of British authors, and have both a Britbox and acorn subscription. I bought this to get a better understanding of where various counties and towns are in relation to each other. It’s quite detailed and I’ve already been able to put a lot of things into the proper perspective.

If you like this style of map , then this is a particularly fine example of the cartographers art. Not only is it well framed giving an excellent placement of France within its geographical context; the bordering countries are equally well detailed. Some maps whether by geographical providence or poor scaling are awash in ocean bleu. Here, not only do you get the countries in the title but also Wales Luxembourg, Andora, nearly all of England, and Switzerland, as well as a fine introduction to Spain, Italy and Germany. Magnifique!!

Amazing levels of detail and excellent paper weight. Beautiful printing.

Autant je suis bon payeur et lorsque un produit est revendu par un tier, c'est normal que le prix soit un peu plus élevé. Mais là, on parle d'un tier plus cher (voir la photo). Et ce n'est pas même pas caché. Un étiquette où il est marqué "pigeon" aurait été moins insultant.

The center of Map was full of wrinkles. 他の方のレビューにも同様の記述があった。 輸送業者に問題があると思われる。

Just what I wanted

I bought this for my 7 year old for Christmas. He loves maps and knowing where things are, and this was for his bedroom wall, with a set of sticky dot stickers to mark places he has visited. I particularly like that rivers, lakes and mountain ranges are marked on as well as towns, cities and roads. It means that he can visualise the views he has had from the car window on the way past e.g. the Lake District.

This map is great. Love the size and the quality is really good, came packaged well and no damage. Looks great on my sons bedroom wall.
