I bought a one-years subscription for Africa which was £57 including the bank transfer fee’s…. Very good value. I downloaded the maps to my BMW Navigator GPS without too much trouble, the youTube video guides on how to do so are excellent.
The only issue with route planning is that you require a laptop and a physical cable to download any routes you have created in Garmin's BaseCamp. I will have an iPad and a Samsung tablet with me so this will not be possible once I have left home.
With the TomTom Rider 550 GPS, it is possible to create routes on MyDrive or on the MyRoute App and send these wirelessly to the GPS, much easier. However the Tracks4Africa on my Navigator GPS will have a lot more detail I will suspect. Anyway I doubt I will be exploring much beyond a D-classified road in Namibia so I will have the advantages of both GPS systems to refer to.
I note for Morocco the Tracks4Africa has the various popular off-road tracks listed, so this will be of further use in the future.
