Dominican pasos and dollars? |
Travel Info im going dominican in 3 weeks and have about 拢600 pound to take to spend can some 1 advise me if its better to have more us dollars or their money etc??? Travel Tips Most places will give you change in their local currency only. It is best to pay by credit card if you can cause your bank will give you the best exchange rate at the time and you do not have to worry about getting ripped off. Others no need for local currency. just take dollars so ya can change them back if ya don't spend up. If you are planning on staying in hotels or resorts I would stick with dollars as they will gladly accept them. If you plan on venturing out into the country on your own, than pesos as many people will give you their own exchange rates. The peso right now is usually 31-32 pesos for ever dollar. Please use caution and never flash large amounts of cash in public as this will attract con artists and petty thieves. Been to the DR and have experienced it myself. Nobody takes cash these days. Use your plastic with Mastercard or Cirrus on it and stick it in an ATM. I am from the Dominican Republic, and eve tho I don't live there I would strongly suggest you to use Dominican Pesos insted of dollars, believe me you will save more that way. Welcome, the best is to keep your Pounds and to change them when you need local money Pesos (RDS) because if you change your money in Us dollars and then change them again in Pesos you gonna lose 2x!!!
