Push Pin World Travel Maps

The best map is the one you'll keep adding pins to, so start with where it's going to hang. In a living room or office, a framed canvas map looks finished the moment it's on the wall. If you like a cleaner, more modern look, go gallery wrapped. And if you travel a lot, pick a size bigger than you think you need, so the smaller countries have room for pins. Our customers reach for Blue Oceans, Earth Toned and Executive World more than anything else.

You can, as long as the map was built for it. A paper map tacked to the wall won't hold pins for long, and the holes start to show. Ours are printed on canvas, stretched over a wood frame and backed with foamboard, so a pin slides in cleanly and stays where you put it. Framed, gallery wrapped and three panel maps all come with 150 pins in red, white and black. If you'd like more colors, or something fun like airplanes or hearts, take a look at our map pins.

They all start as the same canvas print, so it comes down to the look you want and the wall you have. A framed canvas map sits inside a float frame (black, brown, natural or white, with silver or gold on most designs) and feels like finished art. Gallery wrapped skips the frame and wraps the map around the edges, which reads clean and modern. A three panel map spreads one big map across three 18 x 36 panels. It's the one to pick for a long wall, or for a family that fills a map fast.

Gallery wrapped world maps come in 24 x 36, 30 x 45 and 34 x 51 inches. Framed maps measure 26 x 38, 32 x 47 and 36 x 53 with the float frame, rounded up to the nearest inch. The smallest size is right for an office or a hallway. Above a sofa or a bed, most people are happier going one size up. If you're on the fence, our sizing guide walks through it wall by wall.

Yes, and it's free on every map we make, posters included. Pick one of our 9 personalization templates, then add your names, a date or a travel quote you love. You can add a pin legend too, so everyone knows what each pin color stands for. We print it right on the map when we make it, so it's there for good.

For a traveler, or a couple who travels together, it's a gift that keeps growing. We see them given for weddings, anniversaries, graduations and retirements, and we used a Tan Oceans world map as the seating chart at our own wedding. One tip: if you're ordering for a holiday or a set date, check the current processing times in our FAQ first, since every map is made to order.
