Attention! If you plan to travel a lot in Lithuania, we recommend that you purchase a detailed Lithuanian road map or Lithuanian TOPO Offroad maps together with this navigator. More information about them can be found here and here. The Lithuanian road map has a much larger database of addresses and points of interest. Together with the Lithuanian road map, this navigator will be a great helper when driving on Lithuanian roads. The Lithuanian TOPO Offroad map is a great helper when driving on forest and field roads.
