Specialty content such as hundreds of diverse and unique recreational, ecological, cultural, and historical destinations make Adventure Maps the perfect companion to a guidebook.The Ireland Adventure Map covers the entire island including the Republic of Ireland and British-ruled Northern Ireland in one easy-to-use map. The north side of the map details from the northernmost tip of the island at Malin Head south to Dublin and Galway, including Belfast, Dundalk, Londonderry, and Sligo. The south side overlaps the northern side of the map at Galway on the west and Dublin on east, covering the remainder of the country including the cities of Limerick, Tralee, Cork, and Waterford.Ireland’s lush green landscape is a result of its temperate, oceanic climate. The island’s geography is mostly comprised of a central plain surrounded by relatively low-lying mountains. Coastal regions vary from sandy beaches to towering cliffs that rise hundreds of feet above the pounding surf. Castles, churches, abbeys, monasteries, and Neolithic sites abound, offering travelers a remarkable variety of opportunities to explore Ireland’s rich and ancient cultural history.

Just came back from a trip to Ireland. We used this map and our Garmin GPS and I wouldn't have had it any other way. This map definitely does not have all the small roads that we would have needed, but it let us know the major roads that we should look for and let us get a clear picture of the 1,200 mile journey we took around the country. Seriously, buy a map if you want to explore the country. Also go to all the scenic look-out points on the map, they were worth every second of driving time.
This map has so much detail! It is perfect for planning a trip, and then as a reference guide while in Ireland. It is very large, and not a map you can open all the way up while in a car. But you can unfold it to the area you are in at the time, and look for roads and motor ways in that specific area. It was extremely helpful while we were searching out some of the ruins and less touristy areas. This was my 6th trip to Ireland, and I've always had smaller, less detailed maps before. I would not go back again without this map!
Very nice map and this is coming from a GPS addict. We will be traveling Ireland by car on our own and the detail on this map is exceptional. The coated paper should make it durable for folding and unfolding in the car. I will certainly buy the same map for other countries where we plan to drive.
I love all the ideas this map has given me only problem is my vacation is only 2 weeks. I have changed my itinerary because of some things I found while reviewing this map. I was able to pick out some great places for picnics and to just stretch our legs as we drive through the Irish country side. Since this is a coated map I have even put some notes on it for places to stop or potential routes in washable marker. It has made planning this trip even more interesting and fun.
Just a good overview of Ireland. I'll be going to Dublin next month, and while I don't need a "roadmap" per se, because I'm not planning to drive around the rest of the country, I just wanted a fairly detailed map to show me where the different cities, counties, and main routes are in both the Republic and in Northern Ireland. The waterproof and tear-resistant features should make it more durable than most. Warning: I tried to tear a little corner of the map, and yes, you can tear it. But it doesn't tear as easily as a regular paper map. If I were renting a car and driving around Ireland, I would probably wait until I was in the country and then try to pick up maps with the back roads in more detail.
It would have been nice if I received Ireland like I ordered rather than Iceland. It was an  screw up because they barcoded the package wrong. But the quality and detail of the map seems good which is what I'm basing my review on. It's a rather large fold out map which I don't think will be very convenient for driving directions which is what I really want for a GPS backup.
We found this map very useful, and high quality. We used it in planning our trip, getting an overall idea of the relationship of places, and used the many "sites to see" markings as one of our guides for where to stop. We likely would not have seen Cahir Castle during our trip from Cashel to Killarney if it weren't for this map. Three fifths of the island of Ireland is on each side of the map, providing a good size and good overlap when using either side of the map. I brought a magnifying glass to make it easier for my middle aged eyes to use. Not the only map you would need, but very useful. We used an offline map app called HERE on our phone to GPS navigate around the country. However, sometimes our app sent us on some of the tiniest roads to connect places. The National Geographic map helped put things in perspective and to understand expected road quality in terms of differentiating a local lane from a county highway, with the smaller roads not included at all. It takes a book such as the Colliers Road atlas of 64 to 160 pages depending on which you purchase to get the smaller roads and navigation. This folding map serves a different purpose and held up during all use. It was perfect to use with the GPS navigation of HERE. I plan to purchase National Geographic Maps for other destinations in the future for getting a sense of places and their overall relationship and the availability of roads. Very useful.
Most road maps are made of a fairly thin paper. This map of Ireland is printed on thin plastic that resists both tearing and water. When driving, you are constantly folding and re-folding the large map. And that makes it easy to tear a paper map. Plastic definitely has an advantage here. The waterproof aspect is another advantage .The map is dated 2011. In looking at a newer maps I noticed a motorway where this map showed a national route. Apparently the road had been improved. Small differences such as this could be significant in some cases. This is the only problem Iâve found so far.
