Which currency???? Help!

I am coming out on the 3rd and am completely confused about which currency to bring. I know the local currency is Lev. but some websites are telling me to bring Euros, some are saying Sterling and some are saying US Dollars!!!!! Please help!! Surely it's far easier to just bring Lev!!

I have to order my currency today so would really appreciate any help!

Hi Rebex,

You should change take some Lev to last a couple of days and Sterling to change there as you should get a better rate. Do not take Euro's or Dollars unless you have some left from a previous holiday and want to get rid (I took some Euros left over from a previous holiday). They will not be changing to the Euro for a few years yet.

If you order from Travelex online before 2pm you can pick up next day from the aiport, and it's commission free on line as well as a better rate ...
