Travel Tips - ATMs in Europe
We thought it might be a good idea to share some tips we've learnt from our travels so that other travellers might benefit from our mistakes! As we have found, any tips to make travelling in foreign countries easier is much appreciated!
The first in this series of posts involves ATMs or Cash Machines in Europe.
We're including this one as it was pretty important for good financial management! We decided to rely on withdrawing money from ATMs instead of using travellers cheques or currencies bought through Foreign Exchanges.
When we arrived in Europe we found that you can withdraw between €300 - €400 from ATMs in France and Austria while in Italy withdrawals are limited to €200 - €250 at any one time. Withdrawals from ATMs in the Czech Republic were about 9000 Koruny or just over €300 at any time.
We found this important to know as it all starts to add up, especially when Australian banks charge around $4 for each International withdrawal!
