Travellers to Greece are being advised to carry euros in notes and coins in case an escalating debt crisis prompts the country's banks to switch off their ATM machines, according to Travel Weekly.
Greece’s tourist board in London said that visitors should avoid relying solely on credit cards or local cash machines even though it does not anticipate any immediate problems.
Travellers should take "enough money to cover emergencies and any unexpected delays", the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) added.
Travel experts recommend taking around three to five days' worth of spending money in euros, alongside credit and debit cards.
