European Money

[Diana Kleiner]

Cruising out of Amsterdam on June 15. I am curious about the best way to take money. Will there be plenty of places to use a debit card ? Any tips would be appreciate on what is the best thing to do and will we have to convert our money when going into Russia, Norway, Sweden ..........etc.

 

Thanks

Buy just enough Euros for any taxis and funds you may need to get from the airport to the hotel or ship. Other than that use a credit card as much as possible and use ATM's for cash. Do not take money to exchange. You always lose. ATM's in each city for cash needs and credit cards get the best exchange rates. We did the baltic 3 years ago and had no problem getting funds from ATM's and using credit cards. In Amsterdam the taxi's take credit cards.
