Our experience is that you get better rates dealing directly with your
own bank via ATM's rather than going through a conversion agency. We
also get cash just as needed in country rather than taking it over
from here so we don't end up with too much left over. Hopefully, some
more experienced travelers will weigh in with their suggestions. FYI,
remember that Britain still is on it's own standard, if you end up
going there.

Does anyone know if the best way to get spending cash in the EU while on
travel from the US is to use a bank card or charge card at an ATM as
far as
rate of exchange, etc.??
