sanibelgirl Posted January 14, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Just received an email from a Russian Tour Co who said I could either pay with a credit card or US cash. Is this something new in Russia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Rosebery Posted January 14, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) There should be no need for rubles. I would pay with a credit card. Take a few US$ or €s for tips. The only time you might need a rumble coin is for the toilets. In that case you could ask your guide to front you a ruble or two.

sanibelgirl Posted January 14, 2020 Author #5 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Thanks to all! I kept reading that using US currency in Russia was against the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
