    GPS systems

     

    I would like to use a GPS system to get around by car or foot. If I bring one from the states can I get a map of israel loaded into it? If so how would I do this. I have checked with may kinds of GPS systems and some do do international maps but none had one or israel. can you help me. If this cannot be done where can I get a good map to use of israel.?  Carol

    This is what I found for you. It's just one example. You should compare the prices.

    I am not a tour guide--just a frequent visiter. GPS systems in English in Israel can be problematic. There is no standard English spelling for many places and if the GPS spells differently than you do....

    I will be renting a car in Israel and will be bringing my Garmin Nuvi 855 with me.  I cannot find any maps available either from Garmin or otherwise.  However if you contact the Garmin vendor in Israel, he will tell you that a map of Israel will be available in January 2010.  In case he would not approve of me providing his email on this community, please contact me directly for further information.
