This map is accurate and laminated, which makes it indestructible. It is a good value and easy to read. I essentially walked most areas of Rome and found no errors...it got me back to my hotel every time. An excellent buy!

You can find an official (and free) map and important extra documentation at the Tourism Office of all European cities you plan on traveling to. These offices are right at the Train station or Airport. Even your hotel concierge will provide you with a decent map.
In my experience, all Tourism Office maps were better than the Streetwise ones I had bought for my trip. Some of the flaws I saw: - Metro lines not drawn out, just stations. It helps to see the actual metro line when you are looking for other stations along your line. - Map is a bit too shrunk down for some cities: street names are too close together and hard to read. - No vaporetto lines for Venice.
... but the map is better than nothing. I don't think you need it if you can spend the 5 minutes to stop at the Tourism Office.
