Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Perfect service. The delivery company lost one of the tree books. I contacted 360 Roadbooks, and with a great response and service. They send me a new book and a fantastic pair of socks. If I need one... See more

The GPS QR codes is only showing waypoints it's not an actual route that you can use with Google/apple maps. This is quite annoying.
Also several waypoints mistakes, place names and typos where found.

Besides the above it's a very good book and a great guide to fun roads on 2 or 4 wheels. The summarization of hotels and restaurants for each route, is great and gives you a good overview.

Reply from 360 ROADBOOKS / The Drive Alliance / NÜR-BCY

Thank you so much for your review Michael and for the kind words!
Regarding the QR codes that link to GPX navigation files: Due to the complexity of the routes with a large number of waypoints, the GPX-files are unfortunately not compatible with Google Maps / Apple Maps (this is also mentioned in the books). Google and Apple Maps can only handle a very limited number of waypoints. Therefore they modify the routes to suit their restrictions, which causes the mistakes you mentioned. This is unfortunately out of our control.

We recommend the Calimoto app, MyrouteApp or Garmin and TomTom devices for accurate navigation of the routes in the book. There are also other good navigation app out there that can handle the complexity of the routes.
Alternatively, you can manually re-create parts of the routes in Google Maps. This takes some work, but if you insist on using Google Maps (like several of our customers do), this is the best way to do it.

Please feel free to reach out to me if you need any further help. I would be happy to help you. Frank@360roadbooks.com

Kind regards,
Frank
