Historical Fluctuations of the GBP to EUR Exchange Rate

The overall value of the Pound against the Euro has decreased by -0.35% in the last 3 months. This downward trend is also evident in the last 7 days when the Pound lost ground against the Euro, dropping -1.35%. In terms of market value, a Pound was worth 1.17 Euros 3 months ago and is now valued at 1.16 Euros. This drop does not favor consumers or travelers currently visiting European Member Countries, as you will get less Euros for your Pound. This represents a decline in buying power during your stay. The trend history chart illustrates these recent changes. You can also plug in and convert the number of Pounds (or Euros) in the currency calculator above.

Travel Tip

Before vacationing, we recommended you exchange Pounds to Euros, 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".
