|
|
What is the best scenario.. To bring CDN$ (cash) with me and exchange it at a bank in Japan, or exchange a quantity of CDN$ while still in Canada?
In Canada I am getting a Yen selling rate of approx. 77.46 to 79.69. Can anyone give me an indication of the $CDN buy rate in Japan?
If I were to exchange my currency in Canada... I heard that the Bank of Tokyo in Vancouver can offer also JPY currency travellers' cheques...
Any reflections on this?
(I already know NOT to change my money at the airports) |

I don't think it will make a HUGE difference where you change it. Yhe exchange rates are pretty similar. Just for convenience sake, I wold change it in Canada. Just one less thing to worry about when you get over here. |
