Where is the best place to cash travellers cheques in Lourdas?

[Welshjames]

It will be our first time in Lourdas (14th July) and we are looking forward to the 2 weeks there. We've stayed in Svoronata the last couple of years and one of the shops did a straight change of travellers cheques with no commission 'as you buy things here' Are there any such places in Lourdas? If not which place has the lowest commission rates?

Many thanks

Hi Gareth

In case I forget, I hope you and Sian have a really great holiday - I'm looking forward to your photos and report when you get back .......

I must admit I haven't used travellers Cheques for many years, but you should have no problems exchanging them in Lourdas - or anywhere else on Kef.

I take a mix of Sterling and Euros these days and use Visa/Mastercard for major purchases - conversion rates with some credit cards are better than cash and travellers cheques and you don't pay up front!

Hi Gareth,
Ericos, at the Lara Hotel changes Travellers Cheques at the Bank rate. Not sure if anyone else does as well, but he's pretty central in Lourdas and we always do ours there, with no problem.
Hope you both have a great time, Cathy.
