Okay, I know I''m going to be showing my travel naive-ness here, but I''ve never traveled somewhere that didn''t accept the American dollar (not by choice), so please excuse my ignorance.
We''re going to the Dominican Republic for our honeymoon, and even though it is all-inclusive, we figured that we would need some cash for some little expenses, such as airport taxes, driver tips, buying things off of vendors, etc.
So, will it be okay to have American money for these types of charges? Would it be better to change some money before we leave? Where do we do that? Will the people where we do this know what type of currency we need to change it to?
And finally, at an all-inclusive, is there any reason to need traveler''s checks?
