Exchange rates....

Encantador

Does anyone know of a way to check exchange rates between home and destination on a daily basis?

I always take cash and hate having to lose money when changing currency back on my return.

Often I have found that in resort, the ER is better than I got at home anyway.

Between now and when I travel to Cyprus on 12th July, it would be useful to be able to check over a few days the rates here and there. Obviously to be accurate, the rates would have to be actually what is available in resort, not some other exchange figure supplied by banks, media, government etc.

Any ideas???

Thanks

What do you mean: 'exchange rates between home and destination'. You can see interbank rate and approximate 'tourist rate' at http://www.oanda.com/convert/fxhistory

Read 'The cheapest way to spend overseas' article, get Nationwide debit or cash card and never think about this nonsense again ... :cool:
