Best currency?!

What is the best currency to use in cancun? Mexican or American? I heard they charge you more if u have dollars??
Thanks x

 

I'm tipping in US and paying everything else in peso

 

I use US dollars for everything.

 

USD too

 

last year we used US for everything

 

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Use pesos.

 

I would agree with Henry because I find it annoying when people dont use Canadian currency when they are up here, however, I am hopeless at converting so I use USD in Cancun. I might get ripped off a couple dollars here and there but I try not to worry too much about money down there...until I run out

 

The peso is your friend. Can and usd are about 12.3 to 1 right now, use simple math in pesos and think 10 pesos per dollar and you'll have a good general idea of cost.

 

That is exactly what i am doing as well.

 

U.S or Pesos

Hey all,

What would be the wiser thing to do with the exchange rate and currency being used in Mexico..would getting cash converted to pesos be the smarter thing to do?


Thanks
