I use a Thomas Cook Euro Cash Passport, and get big chunks of cash out at a time.
Depends on how much cash you are planning on spending? €200 or less and I'd probably take cash.0 -
Use a Caxton card - linked to your bank account and you can just move the money across as and when you need it online - no transaction fees fot taking money out of the hole in the wall over there0
