4.0 out of 5 stars The best of the bunch and yet it's already out-of-date, 31 Jan 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Gran Canaria (AA Island Maps) (Map)
First the good points. The scale, at 1:30 000, is detailed enough to show every bend in the (very bendy) mountain roads. The tourist information details, such as viewpoints and the location of museums, sights or churches of particular interest is also very helpful, as indeed are the accurate town plans of Las Palmas and the Costa Canaria resorts.

On the downside, despite only being published in the UK in May 2003, the map has glaring errors, most notably its omission of entire motorways, both the extension of the GC-1 Autopista beyond Puerto Rico in the southwest and even more alarmingly, the entire new GC-3 Las Palmas 'bypass' in the NE.

Overall, I would still recommend the AA Island Map to Gran Canaria as the best road map of the island presently available. Had we been forced to rely on one of its competitors, I think we would have become very lost indeed once away from the coastal motorways.

4.0 out of 5 stars The excellent Spiral Guide to Gran Canaria, 5 May 2003
By Mrs L Lawes (Brighton, East Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I first spotted spiral guides whilst on a plane struggling to read the current guide book I had bought and next to me was a chap with a spiral guide.He was having no trouble because the thing laid flat.After that I resolved to only buy spiral guides.
In April I went to Gran Canaria so I bought the appropriate guide.It is really excellent.Well laid out and well thought out.
We are not very adventurous travellers being grudgingly happy to pay the exorbitant prices for escorted tours.This book gave us the confidence to explore farther afield using the guide.We took the bus to Las Palmas where we visited the Museo de Canarios.Here there is all the history of the ancient Canarians together with mummies.The maps in the book together with bus numbers got us there and also allowed us to find the museum and our way back to the bus station.We also went to Puerto de Mogan by bus as recommended by the author.The only thing I would have liked that wasn't there was the location of the bus stops.Other than that I could not fault it and shall be buying the Mallorcan version for later on in the year.

2.0 out of 5 stars Maps no longer up to date!, 27 Mar 2005
By A Customer
Went to Gran Canaria March 2005 and used the spiral guide. It's an attractive book with good information. However, there is a lot of development and road building on the island and we found that the maps were not up to date. If you are hiring a car, as we did, I would recommend buying a map on the island when you arrive. Also found the location of some of the sights almost impossible to find, and the guide book was far too vague to help and the Spanish signage was appalling! eg we wanted to visit the gardens in the North - when we eventually found the gardens we did find that the guide book was accurate about the restaurant and gardens.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for motorists
In keeping with the Tenerife map which I have used extensively, it provides an excellent map for driving and touring round the island.
