springdal Posted March 29, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Is cash an absolute necessity here or can credit cards be used, or even travelers checks? I don't want to carry a lot of cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kujobie Posted March 29, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Depends on what your buying. It's not much different from the states. You're not gonna wanna carry around $2000 in cash to buy a diamond necklace and your cab driver won't accept credit cards. Common sense will dictate what type and how much $$ to carry. I don't think you will have a problem with traveller's checks in most stores but I would just stick with cash and plastic if possible. A lot of tour operators are not set up for credit cards so a decent amount of cash is advisable if you are planning to book a tour off the ship.

StacyinKs Posted March 29, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 29, 2005 If you are planning on taking a bus or cab, it may be a good idea to have some smaller bills, as most won't make change. :) We booked with Captain Marvin and paid with cash. Took a tour off of the Pier, and paid with cash also. As far as shopping, you should be okay using Credit cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
