Republic of Georgia - Local currency
 

Can anyone advise me as to the type of establishments to look out for to change Euros/Turkish Lira into local currency please? Are the border and banks the best options?

Many thanks.

Rates are just as bad at the border as they are in banks. Batumi has plenty of exchange offices with better rates. Akhalstikhe has a few as well. Plenty in Tbilisi as well.
There's also ATM's pretty much everywhere so you can withdraw local currency and in many cases dollars as well with your debit or credit card.
The best exchange rates are with other travellers going the opposite direction as you.

Many exchange offices through Georgia with the going rates shown out of shop with neon lights.

Try to remember the best rates and do the job.

Some exchange shops re very small and inside the buildings, so need a bit effort to find...

I find shops on the streets has better value than banks ...

Thank you both for the replies.
