wallflour Posted September 2 Report Share Posted September 2 This might not answer the question completely, but I've heard that you get the best exchange rates by withdrawing money from ATM's over there, or by purchasing with your credit card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewminati Posted September 2 Report Share Posted September 2 i kinda agree, because the atm and credit cards change everything for you.just call your bank and ask them, or call any bank and ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimk29 Posted September 2 Report Share Posted September 2 This might not answer the question completely, but I've heard that you get the best exchange rates by withdrawing money from ATM's over there, or by purchasing with your credit cardThat's definitely the best way to do it. But you might have to exchange a little before you go. (cabfare from the airport)That's what I do every year because when you convert they give you a lower rate, and charge you a fee, %. If you take it from the ATM, you get the exact rate of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airports usually have currency exchanges - the Travelex at JFK seemed to work for me when I went to Europe a few weeks ago.I once changed money at a bank, and I thought I got ripped off.
