Hi,
I am shortly going to tour syria and jordan for a couple of weeks. Apart from visa credit and debit card and debit cards(ATM) should I carry British pounds, US dollars or Euros?

Dear Mr. Dave

Greetings

Although credit and debit cards are mor and more widly used in Syria, but we still recommend you to have cash money in your wallet as you may rarely face some techincal problems in some machines

Hope you enjoy your trip

At your service whatever you ask for from Syria

Take care

Bye bye

Dave - the US$ is easy to exchange everywhere in Jordan and Syria. The Jordan Dinar (JD) has a set rate against the US$ so you will know exactly what you should get each time you change. In Syria I advise to change in the bank - they will usually honour the official x-rates.
