Comments about Venice Destination City Map:
Durable, waterproof material and good textual information and useful airport map on the back, but lacks some detail compared to the Rough Guide map. It names less small streets (calle), doesn't identify eating places, doesn't provide an inset for the island of Burano nor the main Stazione Marittima / Tronchetto area, doesn't show waterbus (vaporetto) routes on the main map, and where it does show them (separate map on the back), the route numbers are obsolete. It's OK but you would be better off with the Rough Guide map if you want to wander the back streets and want to know exactly where you are! (But note: Rough Guide's vaporetto route numbers are obsolete also).
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
