Cash is risky but offers best value. Travellers cheques are safer but you are going to get stung on commission and exchange rates. I tend to take a bit of both, use my cash up first then change the cheques as I need them.

take abit of cash and a small amount on a travellers card!

If your going to get a travellers card, get a visa one! not the mastercard ones like from thomas cook as they charge to use them. The visa ones are free to use/open.
