Every time we travel to another country one of the most important things we have
to keep in mind is what are the best places where we can change our money.
And this time we are going to show you where to exchange your money with the best
rates here in Istanbul.
According to today's rate 1 u.s. dollar is 5.95
Turkish liras so we will go check around Sultanahmet and in the Grand Bazaar and
we will see what are the best rates they are offering.
As you can see the rates here in Sultanahmet weren't the best ones and even though
they were a setting or saying that it was with no Commission of course they
have extra commissions so you just have to pay attention to that when you're
exchanging money try to get or to save as much as possible from your money.
Now we're going to the Grand Bazaar because usually inside the Grand Bazaar
they have the best rates for exchanging your money usually in our
case every time we travel to another country in Europe we always come
here inside and we exchange our Turkish Liras into US dollars or Euros in this case
in Europe so you can also come inside and check the rates here usually
they will be way better.
We will show you right now the rates they have here inside the Grand Bazaar, it
is unbelievable how just a couple of meters away from the Sultanahmet main area
the rates change a lot so we recommend you coming here inside the
Grand Bazaar and exchange your money that will save your pocket because if
you do it outside even though they say no Commission of course they have
commissions but here the rates are exactly the same as we saw them on
internet so here it is your best option to exchange your currency
either dollars or Euros any type of currency.
As you can see right now we just show you where you can have better rates when
exchanging your money and this is definitely inside the Grand Bazaar we
totally recommend you to avoid exchanging your money in those exchange
offices in Sultanahmet area as you can see just a couple of meters away and
just two minutes away by foot we could find the best rates here inside
and as I already mentioned before as well here is where we come and change
our money every time we travel to Europe so we recommend you coming here and as
well when you are coming to Istanbul and once you are at the airport try not to
change all your full money there because also they they have very bad rates so we
only and we will tell you to change the enough money to take you from the
airport to the city centre or any other area you're staying at so hopefully you
