To NAVIGATE a car in FLORIDA
  If you want to drive your car outside of NAPLES, we definitely recommend using a GPS SYSTEMS. It's not only 'stress saver', but also increases safety. While not in NAPLES, but in other parts of Florida there are some 'dark places' where you should not get out of your car and ask for directions. If you only have to go from FORT MYERS Airport to NAPLES and for the rest you'll drive only in NAPLES, you do not need a GPS. A map is sufficient.

Hint 1: GPS APP for your Smartphone

The company NAVIGON offers an APP for the area USA EAST. FLORIDA belongs to this area. The APP's price is 29.99 Euro in the Apple Store. The APP is also available for ANDROID. The APP works fine without any SIM card.

Hint 2: A real GPS-SYSTEM - rented from the rental car company

This solution is easy and expensive. Ask first your rental car company for the price.

Hint 3: A real GPS-SYSTEM - bought in the USA

This solution is simple, if a WALMART or RADIO SHACK is nearby. There you'll get the TOMTOM for about $ 110. But check first, that your car has a cigarette lighter as power supply.

Hint 4: A real GPS-SYSTEM - your own from EUROPE

This solution is the cheapest. But check first, that your car has a cigarette lighter as power supply. Not all rental cars are equiped with an USB outlet.
