Buy Euros before you fly
Benefits of planning ahead
It's always a good idea to have some Euros handy for essentials like food, drink, tips and transport when you arrive.
Buying your Euros before you head off means you won’t need to worry about finding an ATM while you’re away. You’ll also be able to avoid any additional withdrawal charges.
It’s worth remembering that foreign exchange rates can go up and down. When you buy your Euros in advance, you can be sure of the rate you are going to get. Withdrawing cash abroad may not give you the same exchange rate.
Get your currency when it’s convenient for you
Use Click & Collect and arrange to pick up your Euros as part of your weekly shop, either from a Tesco Travel Money bureau or selected customer service desks. Or, you could try our home delivery service – free on all orders of £500 or more.
Exchange rates can change throughout the day and will vary depending on whether you are buying in store, online or over the phone.
