Online mapping programs have made traveling foolproof--for the most part. But there's always a time or two when you wish you could just type in a particular neighborhood instead of a specific venue. If you're planning a trip to Toronto anytime soon, you're all set.

BlogTO has gone the extra mile and offers maps and tips that offer directions as well as the vibe of the city's many neighborhoods. Available at hotels and other local establishments, the maps can also be ordered online and be shipped direct to you as long as you chip in for a small shipping cost.

The best part of these urban maps are that they were designed with locals in mind and definitely offer the scoop on more places than what you'd find in guidebooks. They're perfect to just throw in your pocket and refer to discreetly without having to pull off the sidewalk and risk not looking cool. (Imagine!)

The 2008 edition offers seven different maps that tackle the hits and misses of 13 different Toronto neighborhoods. You can even plan out your route online as each map has a complimentary interactive online neighborhood guide.

Paired with a smartphone, these maps will definitely provide the ideal city itinerary without steering you to a gross chain restaurant or tacky gift shop. Oh, and of course they're printed on 100 percent recycled paper!
