This GPS we rent is a high-quality, well-reviewed product from Garmin, one of the world's top manufacturers of GPS units. Our slim-form, lightweight GPS units for Europe have an approximately 5" screen to view easily while you're driving. All have rechargeable batteries, intuitive user-menu choices, and convenient color touch-screen technology. See our complete line of GPS units available for rent.
All voice instructions are clearly audible, can be set for either male or female voice, and are given in English - unless you prefer to read and hear instruction in one of several other languages available. Each GPS offers driving guidance from any Point A to any Point B, giving you at-a-glance valuable information such as:
- Your current location on the map
- Distance and time to your destination
- Distance and instructions for your next turn
- Nearby points of interest such as hotels, gas stations and restaurants
Here's what you get with your Europe GPS rental:
- A Garmin Nuvi GPS embedded with road maps and travel data base for Europe. (see notes on vintage below)
- Windshield mounting bracket
- DC power cord for plug into to car power receptacle*
- Customer service contact information
- Free technical support from our staff
- User guides are available online
* If you plan on using the device for pedestrian use, please request an ac adaptor at checkout to be able to charge it. Note that the effective battery time on our GPS rental units when not plugged into a power source is very limited. That is, if you are out walking with the gps with now power cource, you probably won't get very far before the battery runs down. Head to this page for more pictures and instruction on our rental gps unit for Europe.
Per Garmin's site, the following areas are included in their European data base with the units we rent:
Features full coverage of Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Czechia, Cyprus, Denmark, DOM (French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, St. Barthélemy), Estonia, Faroe Islands, Finland, Georgia, Germany, Iceland, Ireland*, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Slovak, Sweden, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Albania, Andorra, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy Kosovo, Macedonia, Malta, Mayotte, Montenegro, Portugal, Reunion, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Türkiye. Features major urban areas with intertown roads in Moldova and Belarus.
* Users in the past have advised that map coverage in the coastal areas of Ireland is fairly normal, but less robust in central inland areas. That's just the state of GPS maps in that area, and to a lesser degree other locations in Europe, not just a limitationo with the GPS units we provide. As maps are updated, this may be less of an issue.
PLEASE NOTE: We rent recent model gps units and guarantee they work as designed by the manufacturer. However, that does not mean every address you might search for will be in their data base, nor that you will obtain satellite reception in all environments. We update the maps every few years, so your device may not have the very last update made available by the manufacturer. The models we currently rent for Europe are in the Garmin Drive series, or other Garmin models with an embedded Europe data card. Please review these models online to ensure they are appropriate for your intended use before placing your rental order. As any electronic device can fail, we encourage carrying print maps as well as a gps.
