I find it really depends on where in your home country you're doing the exchange A regular bank will probably have a fair to bad rate, but smaller currency exchange places can have quite competitive rates I was just in Europe last month, and I got 500 Eur here in Canada before I left, and the took out more as I needed to from ATMs The rate in Canada was actually marginally better than anything from the ATMs in Europe

Agreed I do the same

I had another problem buying money beforehand -- the bank gave me some British notes that were no longer in circulation No one would accept them, and British banking laws make it pretty much impossible for them to change them for you without establishing a chain of possession or without you opening an account and depositing enough money to cover the bills should they turn out to be counterfeit (or so it was explained to me) Luckily for me, I was visiting relatives who changed them for me, but if you don't know anybody there you're holding worthless paper

When I visited Dubai I had the hotel exchange my USD at a pretty good rate But not sure if some Europe hotels would do the same?

Hi Mark, I've been your fan for 2 years now I have a small question to ask I'm going to go on a long flight to Singapore with my baby and my wife I just wonder if I should spend extra money to get good seats together or just wait till check-in and they will just give us nice seats together because we fly with a baby? Please let me know Thanks

This is a bit of an old timey problem in my eyes I remember when my parents went to the exchange house whenever we were abroad during family holidays But now (expecialy with the Euro being dutch) I have never seen the inside of an exchange house as an adult Even when traveling to the UK or USA I just use my Maestro debit card from my home bank an go along No need to carry a ton of money, Just hit the ATM as you go Much safer in my opinion brbrSo Embrace the modern days!

Get a revolut card ! I never carry cash in europe
Comment from : Neil McAdam

I wholeheartedly agree with this My bank wanted to charge me 10 more than the exchange rate I went to an ATM as soon as I got off the Metro and the charge was only $3 and a $5 charge from my bank

Find out which Bank your home bank os associated with in foreign Countries to avoid fees of withdrawing cash from different bank ATMbrbrExample:brBank of America in the US is associated with Satander in Mexico so you are able to withdraw from Satander ATM for no fee
Comment from : Mr Kevin Hinojosa

I don't understand brStep 1) Call bank and allow foreign transactionsbrStep 2) Go to foreign country ATM and withdraw US Dollars or withdraw Local currency?brbrIm confused because you said do NOT accept the direct conversion rate This leads me to believe you want us to get dollars???
Comment from : Mr Kevin Hinojosa

Open a Capital One account, and use the debit card to pull money from the ATM's No fees at international ATM's I did this in France, Italy, and Spain with no problem I hear Charles Schwab also has no fees
Comment from : Daisy L

It think it is a good idea to at least have some local currency before arriving, if possible I remember when arriving at the airport in Rome at the evening I saw one ATM with a long queue, so I went by it 5 minutes of walking later I arrived at the bus stop I didn't see any other ATM The bus to the city center only took cash, 5 Euro That was accidentally the amount I had in my pocket from another trip I could have missed the busbrbrIf you travel on a regular basis to countries that use Euro, it is practically to have some for the next trip Also: Sometimes the ATM or your card doesn't work It is nice to have at least some backup when arriving Also: Travel with more than one credit card, in case it doesn't work or so on,

hey I got a question How much spending money should I take for 30 days in eastern Europe on a budget?
Comment from : Jay Williams

unfortunately that was not clear advise at all
Comment from : spacethegas

In Sweden a PIN is needed but even if you don't have one you can still use it by swiping and showing a valid ID/passport to prove that you're the right card holder
Comment from : Fahadullah Muhammad

I always get a little bit of cash at the bank at home but I definitely realized the last trip I took that it's better to wait until you get there In my experience though, if you do this you should get cash right away at the airport if possible because if you take a cab to where you're staying they likely may not take cards and even if you take Uber (as I learned this past trip) something might go wrong and you'll need cash to pay the driver

Great Video Thank you for posting
Comment from : Sonny

Which card is better debt or credit card ?
Comment from : Monica Ant

I never exchange funds at an airport The exchange bureaus at the airports have the worst exchange rates and the ATMs have the highest fees at airportsbrbrI always arrive with at least $100 in local currency and get cash from ATMs while there

Do a 10 shocks video of Ireland Please
Comment from : Barry Crowe

What did that on-screen blurb mean about not taking "direct conversion"? What's the difference? (Other than it costs more)
Comment from : Derek Allyn

I personally prefer to use a card as a backup, in case it doesn't work; I bring over hundreds of Euros I don't like being risky in a foreign country

The whole world needs to adopt a single currency
Comment from : HittingTax26

Are exchange rates a percentage or a fixed dollar amount? (or whatever the currency is)
