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.

Hi, I have used mine for years. Been to England, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and Spain & Netherlands. Were never lost & made it to our destination. The best advice is to call Garmin's toll-free # and they explain what the current model has built in plus what else is loadable.

On the gps, I don't know if the maps can be updated to Europe, Asia, etc, there might be information on the manufactures web site,

I just ordered straight from Garmin and was told that this unit specifically has Europe and North America Pre-loaded, but to get lifetime traffic you have to pay separately. Sounds like the people who have purchased and received it do not have both Europe and N.A. pre-loaded?

Not clear if this comes preloaded with full European maps or not. Short description states it is loaded with North America & Europe but full description states only North America.

No not as far as I know. Ours was loaded with a basic map of America and we had to purchase all the maps we wanted. Hope this helps.

You should check directly with Garmin. I think there is a very rudamentry map which is not of much use on its own. The package may include a card with a preloaded map or disc such as N. America

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.

There are so many Garmin options it's mind boggling. The nuvi 350, which I own, comes with North American maps. Looking to buy a gift for my dauughter so I explored a bit. The 200 comes with regional maps, which is basically the continental US. Since we live in Western NY, Canadian maps are useful so you need to go to a model with North America to get that. We traveled to Ireland in the spring but to get maps for Ireland you need to buy an SD card, which goes for over $100 (we left the Garmin home). Also recommend a model that says the street name in addition to 'turn right'. The units can get confused and that is a good 'verification' that you really should turn or exit. Additionally this is helpful because you should be looking at the road and not the Garmin to make sure your going the right way.

You will not need to upgrade your maps. Things do not change in Europe as they do here. I would suggest you preload your destinations here so that when your feet hit the ground turn on your GPS and go. I used those maps in October 2010 with no problems.

Hi, ocean,I don't know whether it contains Europe maps. It died even when I was trying to update US maps, not saying Europe maps. I don't recommend this unit AT All.

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

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.

Sorry for the delay...I was not physically by the GPS to check it. I tried several destination in Canada and it appears to build detailed routes to those destinations. So, I guess the answer to your question is "yes". It does have canadian maps in it!

It does not come with pre-installed maps, but you don't have to buy from Garmin
