Where is it most profitable to exchange money in Phuket?
Insider's Response
The best exchange rates can be found at official currency exchange offices. They are located on all major tourist streets in Phuket. Interestingly, in less touristy areas, the rates may actually be even better. Keep in mind that small-denomination bills are often exchanged at a lower rate, and damaged, taped, or heavily wrinkled notes may be refused altogether.
An even easier option is to use trusted exchange services like Arbi. You can do it from home via their Telegram bot at this link. The service is transparent and reliable.
