Travel Tip

Before vacationing, we recommended you exchange Barbadian Dollars to Kenyan Shillings, or other currencies, at your local bank or credit union, as you will, in general, get much better exchange rates than you would at airport kiosks, where rate hikes are common and expected. Although conveniently located at your port of entry, currency exchange kiosks will also charge convenience fees per transaction. Another option to save money while vacationing is to pay any charges you incur with a "no-foreign-transaction-fee-credit-card".
