Hi Olly, how much money will I need for this trip? do I need to take some £'s Annie H

Hi Annie,

I am also going on the China trip on 19/9/12. Are you by any chance going from Manchester like myself is so it would be good to have someone to travel with. I would also be interested to know about how much to take and in what currency and denominations. I would also like to know what the dress code is for the evenings have you any idea?

would love to hear from you.

I took some Chinese Yuan and Sterling. I did use the ATM as got quite a good exchange rate.

Have a great trip

There are a few threads on this subject on the community that you might like to look at, including:

They recommend taking £50 in Chinese yuan for the first day or two, plus sterling to change while you are in China, as the exchange rate is better. Avoid taking £50 notes, as these can be rejected.

Kindest regards,

Julia
