We are heading down that way on Tuesday for 7 days and was just curious if traveller's checks are widely accepted? Don't want to have any problems once were down there.
Thanks for any info.

A friend I traveled with used traveler's checks. No problems anywhere. I personally used cash and found it more convenient (you don't have to cart your passport with you everywhere, etc). I don't think you'll have a problem. Have FUN!!!!!!!!!

All 14 of us in the group used traveler's checks the whole time we were there and didn't have any problems! Have fun!

keep yur passport with you for using trav check,s they write the number down on the back of them...

I used traveler's checks. I felt uncomfortable carrying around my passport, so I wrote the number on a slip of paper and carried it with me - NO PROBLEMS

I did what Erica suggested. I didn't always get asked for my passport number but often enough that I was glad to have the slip of paper with me. I eventually had it memorized but I was there for 3 weeks.

Never once did I use my passport to write a travelers check. Driver's license was good enough, and some places didn't ask for anything except where you were staying. No problem!

Another idea is to make a photocopy of your ID (passport or Drivers licence) and carry that instead of the real thing. I found that it varied by vendor whether they wanted any ID. Have a great time.. you'll soon be hooked like 99% of the visitors.. Cheers Gail
