Currency Exchange



It is important to get some Canadian money before you arrive in Ontario. You will need some Canadian money as soon as you arrive. You might get a better exchange rate in the country you are coming from.

At Toronto Pearson International Airport, you can exchange money at the currency exchange booths between 5:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m., 7 days a week. However, you will likely get a better exchange rate outside of the airport.


You can also find currency exchange services at banks, travel agencies and in downtown areas of most cities. Hotels will exchange small amounts of money, but the exchange rate might be poor. In Ontario, banks are often the best place to exchange money.

By the way, for those who haven't seen the Canadian Currency before, here is an image of all coins:
