Thomas Exchange Global Comments on Growing Popularity of Asian Tourist Cities in Response to CNN’s Recent Report
London, UK (PRWEB UK) 22 June 2015 -- CNN recently published an article on the “10 most popular cities for travellers in 2015,” breaking down popularity by projected visitor arrivals for the year, international overnight visitor expenditures, and the fastest growing tourist cities. According to the report, Colombo is the fastest growing tourist city in 2015 amongst the list of other, predominantly Asian, destinations. In response to the surge in tourism being experienced by Asian cities, Thomas Exchange Global (TEG) lends its expertise on how travellers can save money while abroad by securing the best exchange rates for Asian currencies.
Nine of the ten fastest growing tourist cities in the world are located in Asia–Sri Lanka’s capital city Colombo topping the list with a 21.1% increase reported in CNN’s June 3rd article. To meet the growing demand of tourists heading to Asia, Thomas Exchange Global releases the most competitive offer for Asian currency exchange services.
Colombo’s spike in tourism has been closely followed by Chinese provincial capital Chengdu and Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Peruvian capital Lima in South America is the only city included on the list of top ten outside of Asia. Currency specialist Thomas Exchange Global continually promises to offer the most competitive exchange rates for exotic and hard-to-find currencies in its London-based branches, carrying over 120 types of foreign bank notes for purchase.
“Unlike many other travel money providers, customers don’t need to pre-book or wait to purchase foreign money for travel. We maintain a sufficient stock of all foreign currencies offered through each of our branch locations in London,” stated TEG Senior Manager Trevor Samuel.
Thomas Exchange Global carries the largest stock and variety of foreign bank notes without the waiting period for purchase that leads many travellers to forgo currency exchange altogether–instead expensing their purchases to credit cards that charge steep international fees. In addition to an extensive and comprehensive stock of foreign currencies, Thomas Exchange Global offers very competitive exchange rates–even for less common currencies needed by travellers heading to far-off and/or remote locations.
“Prepaid cards and bank cards are not the best options in locations where cash is king. We advise travellers to carry local currencies in small denominations in order to get the best value at these economical destinations,” continued Trevor.
In addition to Asian currencies, Thomas Exchange Global offers the most competitive exchange rates for the British euro and U.S. dollar–even being recognized as, “the best place to buy Euros in London,” in a recent article by The Express.
