Hi,

I have come across an unexpected matter... Brought my GPS here with Malta maps loaded and it only shows the main roads! So my question is, is there a reliable GPS navigation on this island? I've been using the maps on the phone, but it isn't really much of a solution. Missed one turn and went to the other end of the island in a heartbeat. Took about an hour to find how to go back, because got stuck in the narrow streets of Mdina...

If anyone knows of one, please share with me, as I'm about to stick to busses

Thanks,

Irina

I have got a Tom Tom Sat Nav and it takes me the wrong way all the time! Its very fond on taking me to dead end roads too. Very frustrating!!

I have a Tom Tom One, and everything works fine.

Could / Do you update your map in the last 2 years ?

I updated it about 6 months ago. I just kind of thought that Malta had blocked some roads and not bothered to tell anyone??
