The Garmin travel guide is very limited for the money. Don't waste your money.

This guide has a lot of useful information but only if you are going to one of the large cities listed in the guide. However it is very confusing and un-intuitive to access. There is a "Travel Guide" icon on the touch screen which Garmin tech support tells me that it is nonfunctional because the Garmin Travel Guide is not completely compatible with my Garmin Nuvi even though it is listed as an accessory for my particular Nuvi. No matter which city I enter in the search bar in the "Travel Guide" it takes me to someplace in Maine. Yes, I called Garmin Tech Support on two seperate occassions because I was certain the card was corrupted and not working correctly. Their only response was to walk me through a number of confusing steps to access the information that I want. Of course these steps are forgotten by the next time I want to use it and it takes me 10 or 15 minutes to figure out again which is very frustrating. My recommendation is to save your hard earned $50 bucks, go to AAA and get a free(if you are members) tour book. It will have a lot more information for a lot more destinations, even smaller towns.

GARMIN 010-10672-02 Nuvi Europe Travel GuideI searched Amazon for a MAP upgrade to have while walking and/or driving around Paris, and this was "suggested". GUESS WHAT? NO MAPS! Supposedly just a list of touristy places to go to and stay! You can get that free on the internet with your browser, and would never use it while driving anyway. What jerk designed this? Meanwhile I was stranded in Paris with no navigation maps and no place to exchange the product for what I really needed.
