About this tool
How the currency converter works
Exchange rates are pulled daily and cover over 150 currencies worldwide, so the figures stay current without needing to refresh constantly - daily is how most banks and bureaus quote rates anyway.
Pick a country below to see typical prices for a beer, a budget meal, a mid-range meal and a nicer meal out, converted automatically using today's rate. It's a quick way to get a feel for the cost of a destination before you book.
Money tips for travellers
Avoid airport currency exchange
Airport kiosks typically offer the worst rates of any option. Withdraw cash from an ATM after landing, or use a fee-free travel card, for a much better rate.
Always pay in the local currency
When a card machine abroad asks 'pay in GBP or local currency', always choose local currency. The GBP conversion is calculated by the merchant, usually at a worse rate than your card provider would give you.
Use a fee-free travel card
Cards designed for travel avoid the typical 2-3% foreign transaction fee charged by standard debit and credit cards, which adds up fast on a longer trip.
Carry a little local cash
Even in card-friendly destinations, small vendors, markets and some transport still expect cash. Withdraw a modest amount on arrival rather than relying entirely on card.
Frequently asked questions
How often are the exchange rates updated?
Rates refresh once a day. This is plenty for trip planning and budgeting, and matches how most banks and exchange bureaus quote their daily rate. If you need true real-time rates for an actual money transfer, use your bank or a transfer service like Wise at the time of payment.
Why do average prices vary so much between countries?
Local cost of living, tourist demand, and exchange rate swings all play a part. A beer in Vietnam might cost a fraction of one in Norway. We update these figures periodically, but treat them as a helpful guide rather than an exact quote - prices vary by city, season and venue.
Are these prices for tourist areas or local areas?
We aim for a realistic average a visitor would actually pay - typically a mix of central, walkable areas rather than the cheapest possible backstreet find or the most expensive five-star hotel bar.
Can I use this to plan my holiday budget?
