Foreign Exchange

Foreign currency is generally best taken in the form of Travellers' Cheques. We also recommend that you take a small amount of foreign currency in cash for immediate use. Many of our larger resorts also now have ATM machines to enable you to withdraw cash using your credit or debit card.

Ordering your travel money needn't be complicated. Whether you know exactly what you need, or you're looking for some helpful advice, why not order your travel money with the additional benefit of home delivery from Holiday Extras Travel Money Service.  

Experienced travellers may wish to take advantage of their 'Fast Track' service, selecting their travel money by currency. Less frequent travellers may prefer to seek advice on their purchase. For some helpful advice on what you should take, you should choose to order by country. Alternatively, the menu bar can be used for exchange rates and a number of other services.

Some good tips from the Foreign Office include:

  • Don't take only one form of money with you - take a mixture of cash and Travellers' Cheques.
  • Don't keep your credit cards, money, passport and Travellers' Cheques together in one place in case you lose them or they are stolen.
  • Leave a credit card at home with your family or friends in case of an emergency.

Currency tips:

  • Make sure you have enough to cover emergencies.
  • Take Travellers' Cheques.
  • Keep a separate record of their numbers.
  • Carry only as much money as you need for the day.
  • If you have to carry a lot of money ask your partner or a friend to carry some for you.
  • Use a money belt or secure inside pocket.
  • Leave the rest in a hotel safe.

Credit card tips:

  • Check the expiry dates on your credit cards.
  • Make a separate note of their numbers.
  • Don't carry all your cards with you - leave at least one in the hotel safe.
  • Make a note of the emergency telephone number for cancellation. Also consider a credit card protection policy.
  • Check your credit card is accepted in the country you are visiting - in some countries you may not be able to use any credit cards.
  • In addition, your bank, the national press, Teletext or various financial websites all provide up to date information on exchange rates.
