Question

Are credit cards accepted in Samos? Should I bring cash?

Answer

Of course, many places accept credit cards. Cash is always recommended for small purchases. We recommend that you exchange dollars to euros before making the trip, the best rate is at your local AAA office or your bank. It may take a couple of days for currency order, but it is worth the better rate than exchanging at the airport. You can also take cash out at ATMs in Greece, check with your banks as they may have a preferred partner.
