Rating: - Too bad it's the only option for South America
It seems that if you need maps for Peru and Ecuador, this is your only choice,The coverage is only so-so and there is little city detail.These maps are locked to the PC and MAC users beware.If you have a PC and a MAC, you can convert the maps to be readable on the MAC but you need a PC with internet access to do this.And by the way, your PC had better be running XP or Vista.Windows 2000 may work but 98, 98SE do not.

- Marginally useful
After a few years of use with WorldMap I would have to agree with some of the other reviewers about the dubious accuracy.Errors I have found include place names not spelled correctly, locations shown a considerable distance from where they really are, and even wrong road numbers given (using the wrong country road numbering system... well, duh).In that last case, the folks who assembled the WorldMap(at least the version that I have) somehow concluded that when you travel from Argentina into ...

- Not much better than Basemap
This adds very little detail over the Trip and Waypoint manager basemap. Added are some city names, topo lines, railroad tracks, small waterways, and obscure airports. I have not seen additional roadways and would not have purchased if I knew there would be no more road detail. Often in Latin America, the roads are incorrectly placed, making marked road tracking difficult. Standard Garmin Quality, which I have come to appreciate.
Rating: - Garmin WorldMap CD-Rom
I travel internationally and was looking for something that would give me an idea what cities I was over from the air, when riding on commercial transportation. This product does that well from the air, but as I read on several other reviews, on the ground, it can be another story. It can put you on the wrong side of a river or when riding on a train, the depicted track can be 3/4 mile away or more. I have the US Street map and that works fine and is very accurate, but the World database still needs ... Read More
Rating: - Disappointed . .
With high hopes I bought this, and the world package, only to find it complex and incomplete.I will stick, now, with Google Maps.
