DON'T FORGET TO TIP

It’s tradition to tip the lounge car or dining car attendant for his service just like you would in a restaurant. It’s also established to tip the sleeping car attendant before exiting the train.

AT THE BANK

When you do not have the local currency, cash your cheques where they offer the best rate and least charges - usually the bank - remember to ask up front if they apply any fees.

LOCAL CURRENCY

Take a small amount of foreign cash to meet your immediate needs on arrival. We suggest approximately US $200 equivalent.

::Be safe ::

ACCEPTED AROUND THE WORLD

Get some travelers checks in small denominations if you are moving from country to country - then you don't have to exchange large quantities you will not need.

BEFORE YOU SIGN

Carefully check your credit card charge slips before signing to make sure that no extra digits have been added, additions are right, and that the currency of the charges is clearly established on the dockets. Keep your charge slips, take them home and check them.
