Boutique Maps are highly curated travel guides, fully integrated in Google Maps. Instead of scrolling through blogs, Instagram, or outdated guidebooks, you get:

• The most practical way to plan and navigate—everything pinned and categorized for instant use.
• A selection of handpicked spots, sourced from the best travel guides, trusted blogs, and insights from local partners.
• Instant access, fully mobile-ready, with no need to download another app.
  
  You’ll save hours of research, avoid tourist traps, and explore confidently—just like a well-connected local would.
  
  

1. Choose a destination and complete your purchase with the email address you use in your Google Maps account (most likely you main GMAIL address)
2. You’ll receive a link to open the map instantly in your Google Maps account.
3. Use it directly on your phone or desktop—just click, go, and enjoy.

• Between 80 and 300+ curated places, depending on the size of the region
• All spots sorted by type:
  
  ✅ Eat & Drink
  
  ✅ Stay
  
  ✅ See & Do
  
  ✅ Hidden Gems, Viewpoints, Hikes, and more

We highly believe and focus on a less is more approach, ensuring each selection is a must, and not fuzz.

Because when you're traveling, time and clarity matter more than ever—and most free content slows you down.

Sure, there’s info everywhere...
But:

• It’s scattered across PDFs, blogs, and Instagram posts
• It gives you big lists, not real-life context
• It’s made for reading, not for moving around

When you're in a new place, you don’t want to stop and scroll—you want to quickly see what’s worth it near you, right when you need it.

That’s where Boutique Maps comes in.
We take the absolute best spots—from:

• Top travel guides
• Local experts
• Curated, trusted sources

And we organize them directly in Google Maps—so whether you're heading to a viewpoint, finishing a museum visit, or walking through a neighborhood, you instantly see what’s really worth it around you.
No guessing. No switching apps. Just smart, seamless travel.

We did the homework. You just go.

Most travel apps overwhelm you with endless options, generic lists, and algorithm-driven suggestions. They often require:

• Downloading extra apps, creating accounts, and adding clutter to your phone
• Sorting through hundreds of places with little context or true curation
• Juggling multiple tools just to plan and move around

Boutique Maps is not another app.

It’s a ready-to-use guide built inside Google Maps, the app you already use to navigate.

• We curate the best spots from top travel guides and trusted locals
• We bring together all that value in one single map, no app needed
• You open it, and instantly see what’s worth it near you, no searching required

No installs. No noise. Just smart, seamless travel.

We did the homework. You just go.

Yes—and that’s one of the strengths of Boutique Maps.

Since our guides are built directly in Google Maps, all the key information (like hours, photos, reviews, menus, closures, etc.) is updated automatically by businesses and other users in real time.

That means:

• You’ll always see the latest info for each spot
• There’s no need for app updates, email downloads, or waiting for a new version
• Your map stays relevant, practical, and accurate—without you lifting a finger

We occasionally review and refine the selection itself, but the real magic is that your guide stays fresh thanks to the Google Maps ecosystem.

Buy it once, and you’re good to go—forever.

You can download Google Maps areas offline, but to see your saved spots from our guide, an internet connection is recommended.
