Extra Travel Tips
Mix Cash & Card – Canada is highly card-friendly, but rural shops, roadside stands, and local markets may prefer cash—especially coins for small purchases like parking or snacks.
Use CAD, Not Foreign Currency – Always pay in Canadian Dollars. Using USD, AUD, or other currencies can lead to poor exchange rates or refusal. Exchange before arrival for better value.
Watch ATM Fees – Foreign cards may incur withdrawal charges. Stick to major bank ATMs (RBC, TD, Scotiabank) for transparency. Avoid high-fee standalone machines.
Leftover CAD After Your Trip? – Danesh Exchange offers a buy-back service for unused Canadian Dollars. It’s simple, secure, and ensures great value when converting back.
