SAFETY ADVICE

Thank you again for all your help.The seats were perfect, right at the front of the tier. Shame the football was a bit tame but there wasn't a lot I could do to sort that! My husband, Tony was really pleased and surprised. Everything fell into place just nicely. There will be no stopping me now I've organized a break successfully without using a travel agent.
Thank you for helping make it a success.

Changing Money and Exchange Rates

	Due to the varying strength of the pound and the euro (€), the exchange rate currently varies between 1.2 and 1.3€ to the pound. Go to x-rates for an up-to-date exchange rate.
	Prices are similar to the UK, with a glass of wine normally around 2.5 €, and a good meal out about 15 €.
	There are plenty of money exchange places, both at the airport and in the centre of town. One easy option is to use the ATM bank machines with your bank card or credit card. The exchange rate is competitive, and a fixed charge is normally applied. Because of this fixed charge, its worth getting your weekends worth of currency in one withdrawal, rather than being charged several times for several smaller withdrawals.
