We are leaving for Cancun this coming Sunday- first trip. I was thinking of taking @ $500 cash for 5 days and a CC. How do I convert my USD once we get there? Should I change at the airport? My shuttle takes USD so I know I can get to the hotel ok. Or, should I take less USD and exchange once I get to the hotel?

TIA!

Charlo0521, Either way is fine, there are plenty of places to exchange $ as you need it. The hotels rate maybe cost just alittle bit more than the bank but not that much! There are a couple of banks in the hotel zone. Enjoy. Linda
