Travel Advice | Foreign Currency and Traveller's Cheques
It is a good idea to change some money into foreign currency before you go, and use your credit or debit card to change the rest of your money while you are on holiday. American Express, Visa, Access (Mastercard), and Diners Club cards are acceptable in most places. Please check with your bank and/or credit card company to ensure your card is accepted. We also recommend that you inform your bank or credit card company that you will be travelling abroad and using your card(s) overseas, to avoid them putting a block on them as part of their 'anti-fraud' measures, whereby they monitor unusual or suspicious activity. It is also worth taking a contact telephone number for your bank/credit card company that can be dialled from abroad (not an 0870 number).
Please note that it is becoming more difficult and in some cases not possible to change traveller's cheques in some countries abroad, and that they are not widely accepted in Kenya, though they should still be accepted by stores and restaurants etc in the USA and Canada (in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars), as well as by hotel cashiers.
