How you getting there?
I always pre-order from Travelex and collect at the airport.
The rate is always better than the PO, Banks. Travel Agents etc.
+1 this. Always online. At the airport counter the rates are outrageous, but order online and collect there has always been one of the best rates for me.
Don’t get suckered into getting a prepaid money card though, or at least check the fine print. They have all kinds of hidden fees, e.g. some have ATM charges depending what card you get, charges for cashing out remaining money, and monthly charges for non-use if you haven’t extracted all the money.
That said, they are kind of handy compared to a CC in that the rate is locked in to when you load it. Depends which way the rates are going though.
