The northern portion of the United Arab Emirates consists of a small peninsula (Qatar) and an island (Bahrain). Although these countries are not geographically significant in relation to their neighbours, they are enormously wealthy, thanks to oil, and have aspirations of grandeur. Qatar hosted the FIFA World Cup of soccer in November 2022. This is significant. Qatar, as a destination country, is now 'on the map'. Its capital, Doha, is quite well developed, with three Metro subway lines, motorways, and a sophisticated city centre dominated by superb high-rise architecture.

Just to the west, the island of Bahrain is just as wealthy, and just as likely to have ornate architecture, luxurious shopping arcades, and an extravagant lifestyle. Its capital, Manama, is growing very quickly, with large tracts of land being created out of shallow offshore sea areas. It also has Al Mukharqa, the fabulous old town, which is a market souk of narrow roadways to dream for. Both of these countries have been previously published by ITMB, but developments are occurring in both at such a rate that an updated map is essential to get around. This part of the world is fast becoming a desirable vacation centre as well as a business location and a favoured cruise ship destination; Qatar in particular. The map is printed on durable stone paper, as users will need to refer to it frequently to figure out where they are.

Fra ITM: This is the most recently released title of our Russia series. In this revised edition, we have expanded the area of coverage to include the portion of Russia known as the Far East Republic and the eastern portions of Siberia (in January, we released Siberia itself). Lets start with the Kamchatka peninsula itself. This is a very interesting adventure travel destination, famous for its geothermal geysers and its isolation from the rest of Russia. There is only city of any size, Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky (which I genuinely hope is colloquially known as PK), the capital and location of the peninsulas only significant airport. We have included an inset map of the city. We also include a map of the famous Valley of Geysers (South of Klyuchi). Interestingly, the peninsula has a town called Esso. The other side of the sheet portrays a vast region from the Russian occupied island of Sakhalin and the Okhotsk Sea north to that portion of what we call the Arctic Ocean but is really a series of seas (this one being the East Siberian Sea) and west to the Lena River. The Trans Siberian railway west towards Moscow is shown, as well as connections into Mongolia and China. This is not a well known region of Russia and is definitely for the adventurer (I would to hear from anyone who has stayed at the hotel in Novaya Chara, which is as close to being the middle of nowhere I can imagine. actually, this portion of Russia is loaded with hotels and camping grounds. The map also shows a fascinating road going from close to the border with China all the way to a bay on the ocean. That would be quite a trip to take!

Fra ITM: Singapore is Asia as it should be: clean, modern, well-governed, efficient, and attractive.  In this edition, which technically should be a first edition due to the transformation of the map into a double-sided one, includes for the first time, our detailed map of the part of Malaysia known as the Malay Peninsula, the ‘mainland’ portion of the country. Singapore and Malaysia are joined together by two motorway crossings and a train operated by Malaysian Railways. Side one of our map concentrates on the urbanized portion of Singapore and its attractions, with a large and detailed inset map of the country of Singapore. Side two covers all of the mainland portion of Malaysia to the Thai border and includes a large inset map of Kuala Lumpur. Motorways are common in Malaysia, and are portrayed on the map, as well as the older two-lane highway network. The map is not printed on paper, but on crushed stone mixed with recycled concrete. This is a relatively new technology, which is waterproof as well as durable and tear resistant. Stone paper is biodegradable, so is environmentally more friendly than plastic. ITMB is the only major map publishing house to use friendly ‘paper’.

As tourism to the eastern reaches of Europe becomes more popular, Slovakia is well-positioned to present an attractive opportunity for exploration. ITMB previously included this country with adjacent Hungary, but now we have expanded coverage and included a detailed map of Bratislava (1:8.000). Side 1 (1:430.000) shows the elongated country from its Austrian and Czech borders to its increasingly important border with Ukraine. As usual, we have included a listing of Top Attractions, such as the little-known towns of Kosice, Banska Stiavnica, and Sturovo, as well as the karst underground caves of Demanova and the fairy tale castle of Bojnice.

Side 2 portrays the capital city of Bratislava in excellent detail, showing the Danube River and the old town in great detail, along with the newer outlying areas of Petrzalka and Ruzinov. The map is printed on waterproof stone paper for durability. Legend Includes: Roads by classification, Rivers and Lakes, National Park, Airports, Points of Interests, Highways, Main Roads, Zoos, Fishing, and much more...

Fra ITM: The Solomon Islands are among the more popular touristic destinations of the South Pacific. Side 1 shows Guadalcanal and an inset of the capital, Honiara, and other islands made famous by fighting in WW2 - Choiseul, New Georgia, and Santa Isabel. The Santa Cruz Islands are shown as an inset. The country has been independent since 1978. Side 2 is a new venture for ITMB - a map of the entire South Pacific, showing cruise routes in the region covered, from Hawaii in the north to New Zealand in the south and from Indonesian New Guinea to the isolated Pitcairn Islands in the east. Inset maps of Honolulu, Sydney, and Brisbane are included, but a nice touch is to show underwater mounts and the way they join together the various island nations.

Fra ITM: 3rd Edition Somalia is one of the more itneresting off-the-beaten-path countries. The area around Mogadishu prefers to call itself Somalia, but controls only a portion of the overall country area. Then there is Jubaland, on the Kenyan border, aligned very closely to the former Italian colony boundaries of the same name. Truuly, an amazing juxtaposition of countries within countries! the reverse side of the sheet presents a vey interesting regional perspective of the area between the northern border of Ethiopia, a small portion of Sudan and a reasonable portion of South Sudan, all of Uganda, most of Kenya, all of Djibouti and a fair portion of Eritrea, as well as the former Aden portion of war-torn Yemen. The strategic island of Socotra is in the upper right corner. This is a fascinating regional map, never before published to my knowledge, of an extremely significant part of the world. Think of the following: Socotra guards and controls access to the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea, leading to the Suez Canal. What an interesting part of the world! How can anyone not be captivated by such wonderfully exotic names as Hargeysa, Boosaaso, or Kismayyo? Somalia and the region of the Horn remain crucially important to world peace, so this map is important.

Lan and I travelled South Africa’s southern coastal route, known as the Garden Route a few years ago and found it fascinating. Shutdowns during the Covid upsurges in 2020 allowed Lan enough time to concentrate on producing an excellent map of Cape Town on tear-resistant Stone paper, covering the city in excellent detail, and a second full-sized map on the reverse side covering that portion of the country known as Cape Province; essentially, from Cape Town north to the Namibian border, east to the Transkei, and north to Potchefstroom.

 This encompasses the wine districts of Stellenbosch, the lovely towns of George and Knysna on the south coast, historic Port Elizabeth, the very interesting Transkei homeland, all of Lesotho, and the arid interior regions that resonate with history – Graaff Reinet, Bloemfontein, Kimberley, and Upington. One not-to-be-missed experience is Addo Elephant Park; another is Grahamstown; still another is Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of land in Africa. An excellent and much-needed travel map!

Fra ITM: South America as a continent is fascinating. For many years, ITMB has provided this map, either in its original version of two single sided map or a double sided map, such as this. We spent a lot of time reviewing the artwork and updating information from more detailed maps. The resulting map is a considerable improvement on the previous edition. The print is remarkable clear and easy to read. Road categories, road numbers of highways, parks, major history and touristic information have all been updated. This is a fascinating continent, and this map is the definitive map of the continent

This is a combination map, focused on two travel realities. Side 1 is a detailed map of the main islands making up the Cook Island archipelago. To provide more detail, the country is an inset map in the lower left corner, with numbers in blue, up to 15. The main map on Side 1 is a series of inset maps providing excellent detail of individual islands, such as Raratonga, Mangaia, or Aitutaki, or island groupings of more northerly groupings that are little more than atolls, such as Penrhyn or Palmerston. The capital is Avarua, and an inset map is included; also one of Arutanga on Aitutaki. The country is well-positioned for tourism, and has many resorts, particularly on Raratonga.

Side 2 is a new map for ITMB, part of our growing Cruising line. This on covers the eastern portion of the South Pacific, from the Marshall Islands, Nauru, and the Solomons on the west to Hawaii and Tahiti on the east, and as far south as New Zealand. Other island nations included on this map are Kiribati, Tuvalu, Fiji, Samoa, and New Caledonia. By the nature of portraying a vast ocean, little detail of each island can be provided. The purpose of this map is to show routes followed by ships visiting the overall region. This is a rapidly-growing travel area for major cruise lines, and promises to be as attractive in the future as cruises in the Caribbean or Mediterranean. This region holds great prospects for the future. Besides, it is a lovely map to look at.

The South Pacific island complex known as New Caledonia, or Nouvelle Caledonie in French, consists of a main island and half a dozen smaller islands (collectively called the Loyalty Islands. It is an overseas possession of France and uses the Euro as its currency. It is located about halfway between Australia and Fiji and is south of Vanuatu. The main island is one of the larger land masses in the Pacific, with a reasonably well-developed road infrastructure linking the capital city of Naomea with other urban areas. There are resort hotels at various locations along the coastline, but this is a territory that one would have to regard as being adventuresome. Most of the attractions are concentrated in the vicinity of the capital. The islands were important surveillance zones during WW2, and the territory is popular with Australians and New Zealanders.

The reverse side of the sheet portrays the South Pacific for cruising, covering from Hawaii to the Marianas, down to New Guinea, and includes the eastern half of Australia, all of New Zealand, American Samoa, Fiji, and Tonga in the centre, with Tuvalu, Kiribati, and the Marshall Islands to the north and the Cook Islands and Tahiti to the east. This is an increasingly popular part of the world for cruise ship activity, as it combines affluent population areas in Australasia and the USA with exotic, but safe, travel destinations that are expensive to reach by any means except cruise ships. This is a brand new title for ITMB and expands our coverage of both the southern portions of the Pacific with yet another first-time map.

Spain is an ancient land full of historic sites dating from Roman times or the Moorish occupation. As a country, it divides naturally into northeastern Catalonia, northwestern Galicia, Central Toledo, and the Mediterranean coastal regions. This map is double-sided, with the portion closer to Portugal on one side and the Mediterranean coast from the French border to Granada on the other side. Spain has invested heavily in road improvements since joining the EU and has enthusiastically embraced rail line improvements in line with the EU’s efforts to wean travellers away from automobiles. This map emphasizes the railway network. The map also includes inset maps for the Canary Islands and the Balearics in the Mediterranean.

The Balearic Islands in the western Mediterranean have been extremely popular travel destinations for centuries. Mallorca/Majorca and Ibiza have become favoured visits by cruise ships to these islands in recent years, but the warm climate has attracted visitors for a long time. Side 1 concentrates on the three major islands of Mallorca, Ibiza, and Menorca but includes the smaller islands of Formentera and Cabrera, along with an inset map showing the islands in relation to the Spanish mainland ports of Valencia and Barcelona. Side 2 focusses on cruising the entire western half of the Mediterranean, from Naples west to Gibraltar. Naturally, the Balearics end up right in the centre of the map, which also includes the islands of Corsica and Sardinia, both of which are becoming increasingly popular with those cruising. I hasten to add that cruising is the fastest growing segment of the entire travel industry, so is an important market for the mapping industry.

Spain is one of the most popular travel destinations in Europe. The country is extremely diverse, reflecting its history. The coastal areas of the Mediterranean were probably first settled by Phoenicians, then Greeks, then Romans, and then Arabs before being brought into a united Spain at the time Columbus was seeking a sponsor to fund his proposed journey to discover new lands to the west. This map focuses on the coast from the French border south through Catalunya all the way to the Straits of Gibraltar and Cadiz. The offshore islands of Mallorca, Ibiza, and Menorca are included, as is the North African Spanish enclave of Ceuta and the British enclave of Gibraltar.

All road and rail lines are shown, including the new Cadiz to Madrid fast train. By the nature of mapping, a considerable amount of the interior is on the map as well, so this map is much more than just a coastal journey through Valencia and Murcia to reach Granada, although that would be a very enjoyable trip. The map is equally applicable to interior trips to Cordoba or Albacete as it is a map of the coast. However, its purpose is to show the attractions of the coast – beaches, resort areas, historic towns, forts, nature reserves, archaeological remains, and Top Attractions.

The southern half of Spain (and of Portugal, which is also included) consists of the portion from Toledo/Castellon south to the Mediterranean. Side 1 (the cover side) focuses on the eastern portion, from Granada to the coast, including the Balearic islands of Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza, and the other side the portion of Spain west of Granada, including that portion of Portugal from north of Lisbon to the Algarve. Gibraltar is included, as are the Straits and the Spanish enclave of Ceuta and part of Tangier. A large inset of the seven Canary Islands is also shown. This map completes our regional mapping of Spain (the other two titles are Spain North and Cataluña/Barcelona).

Spain has invested heavily in its train network, so we note both rapid train and regular train routes, as well as the expanding motorway network. Major touristic sites are noted, as always, with special attention to world heritage sites. The scale is excellent for those wanting to explore this portion of Spain at leisure.

This edition is a considerable improvement on our previous one, benefitting from the extensive research trip we took to the emerald-shaped island shortly before the outbreak of Covid changed the world. We have re-introduced it as a map printed on waterproof paper, as such a format holds up well in a hot, humid climate. We visited all parts of the island and were quite impressed by the number of local hotels and resorts that we found and have added to the map. We were particularly gratified to discover progress on extending the motorway system for the country, much of it now probably delayed due to Covid.

The inset map of Colombo is particularly well-done. The second side of the sheet is a very detailed map of the southern third of India, from Nagpur to the southern tip of the country. Space constraints did not allow for inset maps, but several well-known cities are included – Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pondicherry, Madurai, and Bengaluru (Bangalore) among them. India is a fascinating, if somewhat intimidating, place to visit, but is well-worth the time to do so.

Fra ITM: Anguilla is a popular cruise ship destination. This island occupies all of side one, with inset maps of Dog Island, Prickley Pear Cays, and aptly-named Scrub Island. Anguilla enjoys several sandy beaches, only some of which have been developed for resort use, and those ‘resorts’ that do exist tend to be modest operations. The west end Village area seems to have the most beaches, with resorts on Barnes Bay and Maunday’s Bay, but the best beach is a bit further east, at Rendezvous Bay. Crocus Hill, in the centre of the island, contains most of the shopping facilities for the island, and Shoal Bay, on the northern coast has another lovely beach resort area. The other side of the map is devoted to what must be the most unusual aspect of the Caribbean – a relatively small island shared by two European powers, France and Netherlands. The island is Saint Martin (it’s French as well as its English name) or Sint Maarten (its Dutch name). The Dutch occupy the south half of the island, with the cruise ship terminal at Philipsburg, the capital. The town is located along a stretch of beach and is only three streets wide. On the other side of town is Great Salt Pond, so the town has no place in which to expand, so is very congested. Touristic attractions tend to spread out from the town along the south coast. If one rents a car, it is a very enjoyable trip to the north half (the French part) of the island. There is no border, so the only difference is language. Both halves of the island use the Euro as their currency. The northern half has two well-developed beach resort beaches at Orient Bay and at Baie de Grand Case The capital, Marigot, contains most of the shops The highest point of land on the island is Pic Paradis (424m) in the French portion. Inset maps of Philipsburg and Marigot are included. 1st edition 2019. Scales:Anguilla 1:23.000, Saint Martin 1:20.000/Sint Maarten 1:23.000.

Considering that Sudan is locked into an even more brutal civil war than the one besetting Israel-Hamas, this might seem like an odd time to bring out our first-ever map of Sudan and South Sudan, but it may be an important area of the world to have an updated map of, to focus on a tragedy unfolding mostly unnoticed by the world at large. More than 10,000 locals have been slaughtered since a rebel group made an abortive grasp to overthrow the current government a couple of months ago, mostly in the Darfur region.

ITMB publishes maps to encourage touristic travel, but our maps also bear witness to atrocities and natural disasters and are widely used by selected governments and humanitarian aid groups thanks to the accuracy of our artwork. Side 1 concentrates on Sudan from its disputed (and closed) border with Egypt south to a little below Khartoum, the capital. An inset map of central Khartoum is also included.

Side 2 focusses on South Sudan from its borders with CAR, Congo, Uganda, and Kenya north to the still-contested border with Sudan and the southern provinces of that country. The most dominant feature of both Sudans is the Nile River (White Branch) that flows through both countries on its way to the Mediterranean. This is the first time that South Sudan has been so intensely mapped and is a credit to Lan’s team of cartographers to portray a country carved recently out of adversity and coping with intense tribal rivalries.

The Andes mountain chain is the southern extension of the Sierra Nevada chain through Mexico and Central America, which is, in turn the southern extension of the Rocky Mountain chain from Alaska to the Mexican border. The Andes is a magnificent series of high mountains that enters Colombia and spreads southwards through Ecuador and Peru all the way to southern Patagonia. 

The map is double-sided, with the Northern Andes on one side and the other side divided into two side-by-side maps portraying the Central Andes and the Southern Andes. Thus, the map coverage focuses on the Andes themselves, rather than on all of South America. All of Colombia and Peru are shown, most of Bolivia, all of Chile, and the Patagonian portion of Argentina except for the southern portion of Tierra del Fuego. The importance of this map is that it focuses on the highland areas of the continent, where much of the population lives. Bogota, Medellin, Quito, Lima, Arequipa, La Paz, Santiago, Talca, and Punta Arenas are all located along the spine of the Andes. So are the Torres del Paine peaks, the Montt Glacier, and numerous volcanoes, touristic sites, and twisting mountain roads.

Fra ITM: The two small countries squeezed between Ghana on the west and Nigeria on the east developed out of the European colonialization of most of Africa Germany, under Kaiser Bill, was determined to create an empire to rival that of Britain, and seized a portion of the coastline close to the British-held area of Ghana and held on to it until WW1 ended Germany’s colonial aspirations. Britain and France jointly governed Togo briefly, but the territory was ceded to France until independence was granted in the 1960s. Neighbouring Benin (formerly the French colony of Dahomey) was all that the French colonial office could obtain of the rich coastal plain until the German defeat in WW1, which gained it Togo and German Cameroun, further to the east. Both countries have their points of interest, but to this day have little to do with each other. There is one border crossing on the coast, and a couple of others much farther inland, but each country operates on a north-south basis, not an east-west one. The map includes inset maps of Lome, the capital of Togo, and Porto Novo, in Benin, which is now the capital. Togo’s best sites are noted in a red inset box, with a separate box for Benin.

The world is changing as a result of a global pandemic, and ITMB has to change with it. We wish to keep all of our artwork available, but at a time of greatly reduced travel, we have been forced to combine two different countries that share a common border in order to justify printing either one. The two countries, Afghanistan and Turkmenistan, do share a common heritage, but a very different history. ITMB Publishes a separate map of the country, and a map of Kabul. The reason for this map is that it is our first ever map of just Turkmenistan, a former part of the USSR that broke away in the collapse of the Russian empire in 1990. The country has, however, not emerged from the Soviet way of thinking, and is authoritarian in its attitude. It is, fortunately, open to travel, and is slowly improving its facilities, so is to be encouraged.

The map includes a very good inset map of Ashgabat, the capital. The country stretches from the Caspian Sea to the Uzbek border and from Russia south to Iran and Afghanistan. We have also added eight Top Attractions, ranging from the World Heritage site of Konye to the ancient ruins of Nisa. We previously published this titles as part of a regional map of the ‘Stans’, but growing demand has justified its own map. We have also published a separate map of Uzbekistan and a separate three-country map of the other three countries, all of which are showing strong signs of touristic development. Turkmenistan is a country emerging as a future travel Mecca. Legend Includes: Roads by classification, Rivers and Lakes, National Park, Airports, Points of Interests, Highways, Main Roads, Zoos, Fishing, and much more...

We are pleased to release this brand new ITMB title. Abu Dhabi is one of the leading Emirates that are rapidly becoming vacation heavens for Europeans who don't want the long flights to Asian destinations. The city is so modern it almost squeaks. The palace is a world-class wonder, the seafront Corniche is a marvelous beach, and the central shopping area offers everything from hamburgers to Gucci bags. Motorways now connect the city state to nearby Dubai and to Oman, with a recently-completed one along the coastline to the Saudi border.

The reverse side of the map is an updated edition of the entire United Arab Emirates and most of Oman, with new motorways seemingly everywhere. A large inset map of central Dubai is included, along with a good one of Muscat. We docked at Abu Dhabi's cruise ship terminal during our visit and were impressed by the extent of urbanization of the city.

Fra ITM: The Sultanate of Dubai is evolving into a popular tourist destination for week-long days. The city itself is fairly new, with lots of exciting architecture, including the man-made resort islands of Deira and Palm Jumeirah. The Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, and the Dubai Mall is the world's largest, with more than 80 million visitors annually. The gold souk is a fascinating traditional market. Truly, the city is making extraordinary efforts to attract visitors from around the world. Equally interesting are the surrounding countries of the United Arab Emirates and Oman, all of which are tourist-friendly. International airports are located close to Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Muscat. Excellent modern roads connect the entire region and border crossings are relatively routine. This map shows an attractive and interesting part of the world, including such marvels as the Hajar Mountains and Al Ain, one of the world's oldest inhabited cities.

From ITMB: The Gulf, in this case, is the Persian Gulf, or if you prefer, the Arabian Gulf or, if you wish to, the Iranian Gulf. Regardless of which name one prefers, it is the body of water between Iran and the Arabic Emirates of Bahrain, Qatar, Dubai, and Oman/Muscat. It is also a popular cruising locale, with ships operating from Dubai to various ports of call. It also covers a considerable amount of geography, so side 1 concentrates on the water area from Kuwait/Iraq/Iran south to Bahrain and Qatar, along the coastline of the UAE to Oman and the Straits of Hormus, and along the coast of Oman to Muscat. It also includes inset maps of Manama (Bahrain), and Doha (Qatar), for the convenience of users. The second side of the map shows all of the United Arab Emirates and most of Oman, with insets of central Dubai and Muscat. Each side includes a listing of the top attractions of the side being shown. This is the third of ITMB’s growing range of cruising maps. We believe that the future of travel includes cruises as a popular means of exploring exotic travel destinations while retaining a comfortable environment. My wife and I cruised the Gulf a couple of years ago and found cruising to be an excellent way to explore several different countries that would be difficult to reach in any other manner. One day, I hope that cruises in this part of the world will extend to ports of call in Kuwait, Iraq, and Iran.

This is a new map for us, combining both the Canadian and the American portions of the Pacific coastline north from the Seattle area to the Alaska Panhandle, ending at the Glacier Bay National Park, which extends considerably north of the Bay itself. Side one concentrates on the Canadian portion, from Victoria north to the Queen Charlotte/Haida Gwaii islands, showing ferry routes and the routes most favoured by cruise ships. As a coastal map, it doesnt go very far inland, but shows the Coastal mountain range to good advantage.

Side two provides a very detailed map of that portion of Alaska known as the Panhandle a series of islands north and west of Canada that is very popular with cruisers. All parks and cruise line routes are shown. Interestingly, at the top end of Glacier Bay, the Canadian border splits the Panhandle from the rest of Alaska; not intentionally, but when the border was agreed upon in the early 1900s, no one realized that the glacier on that site might one day melt. Well, melt it has, leaving a kilometre-long stretch of beach that is part of Canada! Regardless, this map completes ITMB mapping of the Pacific coastline of North America rom the Bering Sea to Panama, a cartographic task that began decades ago.

This is a new venture for ITMB, although we have published several recreational hiking maps over the years. The Appalachian mountain range was the original western boundary of the American colonies while under British rule. Everything west of there was technically the French possession of Louisiana Territory, called by American settlers ‘Indian country’. Nowadays, it is a massive recreational hinterland for east coast residents wanting to escape overcrowded cities. The National Parks Service maintains the trail and a series of overnight huts.

Most people only hike a portion of the trail, but for the dedicated hiker, the trail is a great adventure. We have divided the length of the trail into four natural regions: Maine into New York State, Connecticut south to Maryland, Maryland to Virginia, and Virginia to Georgia, to its traditional end at Springer Mountain. This is a demanding trail hike, but one of the most popular in the world.
