Get on Google Earth. Copy the long/lat of your final destination. Mark as way way point. If your GPS routing fails, at least you know precisely where to aim for.
Some civic adresses are wrong on some software. I was once told by a not so happy farmer in Ontario that some (insert whatever descriptive) in California thinks there is a campgroung on my property andtoo many people come to visit... But then again, no need if you don't use a GPS. |
i think using GPS is really very much helpful. i remember i was in a group we're in a Van and we literaly got lost in the desert. good thing i got GPS in my smartphone and we manage to find our place of destination! the GPS is very accurate, when u see a river and bridge on ur phone and when the van actually went there there is a river and bridge indeed!

Great advice. When someone losts in a foreign country, surrounded by foreigners who don't understand your language, you are kind of getting an anxiety. My suggestion is to calm down and take few minutes sitting alone. Find somebody who understands English. Talk to him and find the way out.

While in Kuala Lumpur,Malaysia google maps does not keep up with the road work, just used my map app on my Iphone(didnot have a gps at the time) and found some address that would work to tie too, then followed the route it setup,later zoomed in for more detail to find the exact location,usually took three steps to get to that point. No need of wifi and worked most everywhere ,not having to rely on the slow wifi was nice also. A niece loaded on my phone so I cannot help you there.
