Thebtboy Posted January 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Going on a 14 night cruise in March around Indonesia, Bali, etc. Wondered what currency to take? When we went to Vietnam, everyone said take US Dollars, but we got the best deals with local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchan865 Posted January 20, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Not sure if the places you're going widely accepts USD. On International trips I have taken in the past, I bring as little as foreign currencies as possible because I didn't get good exchange rate from my banks or other currency exchange places. So I used my Master card that did not charge foreign transaction fees and offered a better exchange rate. May be this will work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John Bull Posted January 20, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Yes, we use VND in Vietnam. Good to be a millionaire for a while ;) Depends how many days you're in Indonesia, but we stuck with USD -prices quoted by taxi drivers & tourist shops & bars are usually in USD & they're very widely accepted. One less currency to worry about. And Indonesia is so cheap (even cheaper than Vietnam) that exchange rates aren't a problem. JB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
