Hi Cheryl,

Regarding the Mexican part of the holiday - I know the currency is the peso but will they take US dollars? I bought all mine when the rate of exchange was good! Also any idea of the temperatures in L.A in February?

Best regards,

Pat

Hi Pat,

While Mexico's native currency is the Peso, most places you go accept the US dollar as currency. However, accepting the US Dollar without a currency conversion will mean you will be on the short-end of the exchange stick, sometimes by as much as 25%.

It's best to exchange your currency for the Peso, ensuring you get the most purchasing value out of your money. You can do this at travel agents here in England, or banks and hotels in Mexico. Look around for different rates.

If you have any other questions then please do not hesitate to email me.

Kind regards
