Since we're off to Orlando 3 weeks today:yay: :yay: :yay:
I thought I'd be organised and get a road map in advance rather than whatever the car hire co. will give me, any recommedations for a good clear map?
We're flying into MCO, staying near Seaworld, and won't be going any further than Disney and Universal.

I would get the Orlando Map by Steve Munns:
http://www.orlandomaps.co.uk/
It far better than any US produced map and also has useful information on hotel and restaurant locations, toll locations and prices and much more :)

I just checked the website and they have ran out of 2nd Edition maps and only have a few 'seconds' available.
If you have trouble getting one let me know as I have one you can borrow :)

Thanks I've ordered one of the slight seconds, I'm sure once I've opened it a few times it'll be in a far worse condition!

I would definitely second the recommendation for these maps as they are head and shoulders the best on the market (even as a slight second!). They have so much valuable info on, apart from just the roads, that they are a real tourist's dream. Big kudos to Steve for this :thumbsup2

We've used this map the past two years we have been to Orlando, and since using the map we haven't got lost:thumbsup2
Prior to that we always took a wrong turn somewhere, :confused3 but with this map it is so easy to navigate as it has all the restaurants and hotels etc on it.
Chances are you will receive it either tomorrow or Friday, as usually the service is excellent and the map is sent out straight away.
Good luck and don't get lost!! :rotfl:

Thanks for the heads up about this map! :thumbsup2 I ordered one yesterday, it arrived today and it looks fantastic - so much info!!! And I don't know about it being seconds - looked fine to me! Such brilliant value and I can't wait to try it out in May... :goodvibes

I got mine yesterday too - can't see anything wrong with it at all!
Now I'm planning my routes to all the theme parks I'm getting really excited!

Excellent sign by sign driving instructions from the airport to a variety of destinations. I print copies every time.
