While digital increasingly dominates our world, there’s still something special about holding a beautifully crafted physical map in your hands. Whether it’s for daily use or a special event, a custom-designed printed map can transform a simple journey into a memorable exploration. Vibemap’s printed maps, tailored specifically for destination marketing organizations with QR codes linking to a digital version, offer both functionality and lasting impressions. 

The Power of Custom Physical Maps

Vibemap’s custom printed maps go beyond navigation—they unveil the hidden gems of a destination, create immersive experiences, and leave a lasting impression on visitors. With both daily-use maps and event-specific maps, we offer tailored solutions for all your district’s needs. Our printed maps can be easily linked to interactive digital maps–in both formats, we create visually stunning maps that align with each partner’s unique needs.

Daily-Use Maps: Unveiling Local Wonders

Our Daily-Use Maps, updated quarterly, are perfect for visitor centers, hotels, and other key locations within your district. These maps not only guide visitors to local attractions but also serve as unique souvenirs, offering a tangible reminder of their experiences. Each map includes a QR code, seamlessly linking to an always up-to-date digital version for real-time information on the go. Whether a visitor is discovering your city for the first time or returning to their favorite spots, our maps offer a fresh perspective every time. Our mapping collaboration with Visit Tampa is an example of helping with day-to-day navigation, marketing, and encouraging people to explore places they might not have heard of–like Dinosaur World!

Special Event Maps: Enhancing Occasions

Planning an event? Let Vibemap make it unforgettable with a custom-designed Special Event Map. Our collaboration with Downtown Portland, Maine, for their holiday shopping crawl “Merry Madness” showcased how a curated map could elevate the experience. Featuring categorized exploration areas and paired with a digital map, this physical guide helped visitors navigate with ease, enhancing their “buy local” experience.
