What's the best exchange rate
The Euro vs. the Dollar is constantly changing. Some guests watch yahoo currency months in advance and buy all their Euros before they depart on the trip at a US currency exchange. You also have the option of bringing dollars or travelers checks and exchanging them at a bank. Most guests have found the best rates by using their US ATM card.

If the ATM card method works for you, make sure you contact your bank before you travel to let them know you'll be using the card outside of the US. Sometimes banks turn off cards and user access when they see foreign transactions thinking your card was stolen. It's not easy to call your bank from Germany once your there.
