Summary: Excellent detailed map for Madeira
Comment: I really like maps and have an extensive collection. I have bought this series of Madeira Tour & Trail Maps from the first edition.
The detail is excellent and as a GPS user I can vouch for the pin point accuracy of the details on the map. I would recommend taking this on any walk on the island. It enhances the whole experience as well as being an insurance against getting lost. I noticed lots of updating on this edition compared to the earlier one. Highly recommended as a reliable, detailed, fully up to date and useable map of Madeira.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Very disappointing, inaccurate and not updated
Comment: This maps appears to be good at first. But it is actually of very poor quality. It seems to be an old map with the newly built main roads carelessly put on top.
Some examples:
1) Most of the base date must be at least 10 years old and a lot of roads/streets built since then is simply not on the map. So fully revised is a joke. One example is west of Camara de Lobos and the area west of Corticeiras / north of Cabo Girao.
2) The new main roads are inaccurately traced and junctions are in the wrong place. One example is the junction on the R101 north of Machicho where the Porto da Cruz and Machico motorways diverge.
3) Road numbers are missing on all the new main roads!!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very useful
Comment: This is a good, useful map. Two sided, each 55cm x 65cm, scale 1:40,000, 2.5cm =1km, which is about 1.5inches = 1 mile. Not quite as good as a British Ordnance Survey map, but better and cheaper (from Amazon) than any maps I saw in Madeira. All the main roads, tourist info, contours, (with good background colouring to indicate height,essential in such a mountainous region), footpath details, with references to walk numbers in guide-books, levadas, a place-name index... There is also a small street-map of the centre of Funchal, but it's really too small to be of use. Collect a free advertising tourist map from your hotel for the centre of Funchal. David Brawn's Madeira Bus & Touring map is also useful if you plan on using local buses.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good - but not as good as OS Explorer Maps
Comment: This map (which is double-sided to give the best scale) is very good, but it doesn't have all the local roads marked on it which made navigating through the villages a bit confusing. It does have the key walks, levadas and footpaths marked and also a street map for Funchal. It does have the contours (which is essential in such a mountainous island), but note that they are 50m bands (not the usual 10m). However, despite looking in shops in Funchal itself, I've not seen a better map, which therefore makes it the best!
(And Madeira is beautiful!)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best Map of Madeira for Walkers
Comment: This map is really clear and easy to read. Plus, it is really up yo date with new roads etc. so useful for driving and particularly for walking showing many tracks.
I would recommend this map as ideal for visitors to Madeira.
