For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Getting the best rate over there has some implications. You will arrive without euros in your pockets. I know nothing about Lanzarote - can you tip the porters and taxi drivers? And where does your mother-in-law plan to go once she gets there to make her exchange? Does she know a reputable place in Lanzarote, or will you have to ask a hotel concierge for a reputable place, then get another taxi to that location?
How much time will this eat up of your holiday and at how much of a savings? It may be that there are plenty of places for exchanging, but I would certainly want to know before I went. I would ask my bank and travel agent. I'd want to know that it was really worth it before waiting to get their currency. Just a thought - - -
www.travelex.co.uk guarantee to give you the best rate, no commission, and you can pick up the dosh at the airport.
Much less hassle and worry than doing it when you get there
I'd just find the best deal here and take the cash with me AND also consider the Nationwide.
