goldenfarm Posted August 22, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2009 We will be at port in Halifax and Saint John on our cruise. Will we need Canadian money for taxis, or are U.S. dollars accepted? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your $USD will be accepted - however with the exchange rate your dollar is worth about $1.07 CDN, and when the bank takes their fee when the driver deposits it will be around $1.04 - so expect they will treat it as par. The larger cab companies take credit cards if this is more convenient - just look for symbol in yellow pages ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 22, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2009 On our recent cruise they were taking it 1 for 1. So you can use USA dollars at a slight loss. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ell52 Posted August 22, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Yes, USD are accepted. But please note that, more than likely, you will receive Canadian dollars for change. So, use small bills unless you have a need for Canadian loonies and toonies. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
