This is a very good Map, It covers all the main island's, inter city Roads & Highways, city main roads and main streets and the 12 city's blocked out by each city covered. It is well worth the money for this map. I have also purchased some other map's and this map is by far the best full multi-islands coverage map up to this point for me in single sheet form. If you are going to the Philippines, this map is well worth the money it can save you in headache's.

One note! Don't forget to make sure your Taxi driver puts-up/turns-on the charge meter or they will try to over charge you. Having the map may also keep them from going the LONG way around to your destination, so ask about how much and how long first ! The Manila Air port Taxi will charge about 750 Pesos to get you to about the middle of Manila, about the same as going to the tourist district. City Taxi's run anywhere from about 50 - 250 Pesos, 250 Pesos will get you a good long ride, 30 min.. As of July 2009 fuel prices.

This map also has various place's of interest marked out, and includes the local city names like MAKATI CITY located in Manila Etc.. Map also includes a Manila street, Hotel & Places index. It is a standard by-fold Map with a thicker cardboard outer cover, on opening the maps main half fold, it has a great Legend with 31 items, Banks & Hotels Etc and directors to the correct side of the map for 12 city's. The Manila city part of the map is real good. You can not go wrong in adding this map to your guides for this price, considering the cost of going to the Philippines.

The map arrived promptly and was in new condition. It was of very good quality and I found it very useful. I would recommend it to anyone interested in traveling in the Philippines.

indeed, this is a very good map, especially of areas about mindoro & zamboanga
with little bits of towns about showing locations of other tiny things & sub-places of tinier stuff.

best map readily available that ive seen so far. Very happy with this purchase,and it appears up to date.
