Guyanese Dollars

I've got far too much spare currency left over from my trip to Guyana. Sneakily, at Cheddi Jagan airport they don't have a bureau de change after you pass security! :mad:

Does anybody know where in London i can get this converted (GYD$) back to £?

    I don't think Guyanese dollars are exchangeable outside of Guyana.

    So your options are:

    1. Put them on ebay, and hope that someone going there wants them.
    2. Give them to charity, who somehow manage to change them.

    Where did you go in Guyana? I was there back in September on a jungle trip, and have a 1000 dollar note still as a souvenir. I spent the other few thousand dollars I had left in the little cafe past security.
  • I found this website that claims to buy back: http://www.crowncurrencyexchange.com/

    It doesn't say anything about what currencies they will buy back, so i'm gonna give them a call tomorrow and ask.

    ACJC: I went to Victoria. It was for a wedding there :)
