Arabian Gulf Cruise Currencies


Recommended Posts

This is our first cruise and we are unsure of what currencies to take with us. We will be stopping at Khasab, Muscat, Abu Dhabi and Dhubai and I believe the currencies are the Rial and the Dirhum or can we use US Dollars. Do we take money with us or can we exchange money to Rial and Dirham on the ship. Thank you

I just did that cruise in Early February.  All ports took US Dollars, including taxi drivers.  Sometimes frowned upon but still took them.  Just be prepared with the exchange rate so you do not get ripped off.  See the Cruise Compasses I have submitted to this site for information about the ports and general exchange rates.  Also take a look at the live blog I have posted. (still to do the last day but it will come soon.)

Enjoy your cruise.
