Stanfords is the world's biggest travel bookshop, and the shop in Covent Garden's Long Acre has been around since 1901. Not only do they do sell all the usual guides from Lonely Planet and Dorling Kindersley, they also stock a huge array of maps from all over the world. Even better, they will create maps specifically for your next walk, gap year or global adventure.

Maps and atlases are also available en mass.
The service is friendly and the staff seem to know a lot about their travel products the
