First Thing First, Avoid Airport Kiosks

Wherever you go, you should know that the airport is the least favorite option to exchange money.

Exchange Currency Before You travel

If you still have time before you leave, it is better to exchange currency in your hometown. The best option you have are either your bank or exchange houses.

Many banks can provide you with good exchange currency rates, however, usually exchange houses offer a better exchange rate and their working hours are extended compared to bank. However, you should plan for this at least 7 days before your travelling time to avoid any delays in getting your money.

Depend on Your ATM When Abroad
