Getting cash in Tunisia
Hi, I'm going to Tunisia for the first time in a few weeks. I realise it's a closed currency and we will need to exchange once we arrive but don't know the best way to do this. Do they accept normal English notes (i.e £10/£20) or travellers cheques etc? Do they accept Sterling/Euro's in shops like they do in Turkey? Thanks
