Strains change from time to time and shop to shop. I'll be looking to ask this very same question a week or 2 before I go 8)

Post office, but still shop around if you have more than post office near check both of them as they may have different rates. I get 109 at my local but the one in town gives 113. And they have offers on if you spend £500 you get a better rate. Somethings dodgy going on there then as the Post Offic...

Amsterdam is a definite no-go for tourists with hire cars. Probably 90%+ of the cars you will see close to the centre will be locals. The transport over there is so good that you really don't need one anyway.

Have a great trip :wink:

Best Euro rate?

Where does everyone go to change their money for the Dam? I used to use the shops operated by no1currency.com (they are usually situated in pawn shops, cash converters, etc) but checking recently they don't seem to be so favourable any more.

Anyone know any really good sites?

Is that 100 euros per night per person, or 100 euros per room? If per room, how many do you need it to sleep?

Good luck, hope you have a great time :) We're there 2 weeks before you so if you need the lowdown on anything, let me know :wink:

Hehe no probs Roccy, i'm glad someone can back that up as it was just too surreal to seem true. What an introduction to the Dam that was lol. One more I remember, from that first visit. We were planning on camping over there cos we were short of cash, and had the tents and sleeping bags, etc stashed...

A couple of funny things that have happened to me on our sojourns to the Dam. Very first time we went, around 1994, it was me, my brother and a mate. We drove to Hull for the ferry to Rotterdam and on up to Amsterdam, me doing all the driving. None of us had ever been before, but since I was the onl...

Thanks for all of the great replies everyone :wink: The Scootyshop got back to me this morning, for the 4 day hire of a simple wheelchair they wanted E70 :shock: That's more than they advertise on their website for a week's hire, I can only assume the extra is for them dropping it off and picking it...

Cheers boner ;) I had a look on the search but couldn't see anything about hiring specifically. Accessibility (if we need it) is something we will just have to play by ear when the time comes I think, depending on her condition. I have to say, it's at times like this you realise just how accessible ...
