Where is the best place to exchange USD for pesos? Last time I was in Mazatlan, I exchanged at my resort/hotel. Sometimes I used the little "exchange booths". The exchange rate was always a little different.
I just returned from Europe a month ago and the "exchange booths" in Paris were a total rip off.
PV, where to exchange USDs for Pesos?

when we were there, we used Atm machines, and got a good rate of exchange. As soon as we got there, we asked the taxi driver to take us to one on the way to our hotel, and he was happy to do this.
Frankie... I found the same thing to be true in Europe.
There are both ATM and exchange bank windows at the airport. They have decent rates.
Around town you can use ATM machine, or the casa de cambio (change windows) which are virtually everywhere with daily rates posted.
Many resorts don't give such good rates, but at my small local hotel they were matching what the cambios were offering.
