Is this Garmin is loaded with Europe maps

It can be, depending on how it's programmed when purchased (find out before you buy; you can pretty much name your continents). OR, you can factory order the continents you want prior to delivery.

My garmin was loaded with the maps of Europe. I do not know how it was done because I bought it used from Amazon. Sorry that I can not answer your question. I questioned the seller to make sure it had european maps because I needed it for my vacation. I use to get the same GPS with my car rental from kemwel.com and they would give me the same garmin with european maps for $40. I go to Europe 2 times a year so I figured it would be cheaper to buy a GPS.

great question. mine was loaded with us maps but no euro maps, but i plugged the unit into my home computer and hit update. the latest euro maps up loaded onto the device for free. i just had to buy an 8gb mini sd card to accommodate the added map data. buy the mini sd card at any drugstore. when you push the sd card into the card slot it will click into place. however, you should put a dab of hot glue or tape over the mini sd card to keep it from popping out. if you don't do this added step, the card will eject by accident when your hand touches the side of the unit. my family has three of this model (the best) and they all have this easily fixed design issue. great question. mine was loaded with us maps but no euro maps, but i plugged the unit into my home computer and hit update. the latest euro maps up loaded onto the device for free. i just had to buy an 8gb mini sd card to accommodate the added map data. buy the mini sd card at any drugstore. when you push the sd card into the card slot it will click into place. however, you should put a dab of hot glue or tape over the mini sd card to keep it from popping out. if you don't do this added step, the card will eject by accident when your hand touches the side of the unit. my family has three of... » Read More great question. mine was loaded with us maps but no euro maps, but i plugged the unit into my home computer and hit update. the latest euro maps up loaded onto the device for free. i just had to buy an 8gb mini sd card to accommodate the added map data. buy the mini sd card at any drugstore. when you push the sd card into the card slot it will click into place. however, you should put a dab of hot glue or tape over the mini sd card to keep it from popping out. if you don't do this added step, the card will eject by accident when your hand touches the side of the unit. my family has three of this model (the best) and they all have this easily fixed design issue. « Show Less

No. Few Garmin units have European maps built in and none on Amazon, I believe. You need to buy a European map mini-SD card which can be installed in the unit. It costs about $80-90 extra.

The company literature refers customers to www.garmin.com. There is a reference to City Navigator Europe NT. Apparently the extra maps can be downloaded from their web site for an additional charge. Best to contact the company and verify all of this information before buying.

The Astro 220 is not pre loaded with any maps. There is a micro SD slot under the batteries to expand the memory if needed. Maps can be purchased from the Garmin website and then loaded onto the Astro 220.

I downloaded the map of Europe to my Garmin nuvi and it listed the countries that were mapped. I don't remember if Israel was one of those.

It only has maps from USA and canada. I m from mexico, you can buy the maps at the web site of garmin but are expensive.

You should ask Garmin as they would have to have the maps you need to load to use it there.

No. Nor does it come with a USB cable (which you will need to register the unit and download free firmware updates as well as map updates). I guess that is why it is so inexpensive (Garmin gets their money one way or another).

No, just North America. Extra maps can be purchased and installed on the GPS

the person who said he was never offered european updates must have not asked when he had his european maps loaded. Mine is now 7 years old, much abused and may have just failed today. The reason that I am visiting now. It doesn't have enough internal memory to handle both map sets, but there is a slot for a memory card. Plug one in and all will be well. I get off the plane turn it on and it asks for the other set. I say yes and it happens.

There are Garmin maps that you can purchase or download for free. I have seen Great Britain Garmin maps, so I am sure they have one for the entire UK.

It has maps for North America and Europe. From my experience with Garmin North America maps include United States and Canada. The usually specify if its just United States. You can also check there web site and see what maps are included. Hope this helps.

Yes - this model - and probably others that Garmin makes, allows the instructions to be spoken/displayed in many languages, including German. Note that this is independent of the maps that are loaded....

No, I didn't get an answer.However, I went ahead and bought the Garmin 275 unit. I've tried it in France only so far. It worked "fine" with a few glitches. Like slowness in picking up satellites (and the inability to do so in closed buildings/tunnels).And having some street names saved with a different spelling than what seems to be the "well-known/correct" spelling (like the spelling of the street address on the hotel website. This caused me to be unable to find the address on the device. It took me considerable time to figure it out!).

dear Anth, I am so sorry, but i don't know. First I purchased a "map" for a Garmin, and didn't have a Garmin, so i returned it. Then I purchased a used Garmin with Europe in it, and took it to Europe May 1 to 30 2013, and used it with my google maps i paid for on my Verizon cell phone. i often used them both to find things, along with the map i got from AAA. Best of luck! Susan
