Not many know of the sight-seeing jewels situated in the northern part of the African continent. Contrary to popular belief, this part of Africa does not house indigenous wildlife. Surprisingly, it\u2019s covered by the pristine Saharan desert and surreal, ancient ruins. These North African destinations will transport you to a different world altogether.<\/p>\n<p>While there are beautiful locations to visit in these countries, one needs to be aware of the variety currencies used here. Africa is usually seen as one destination but there are different countries in this continent. Each of these countries have different currency norms and can be confusing for the first-time traveler.<\/p>\n<p>As a rule, major cities will accept cards, local currencies and foreign currencies such as USDs and Euros. \u00a0Outside of these cities, however, you will need to use local currencies and you might not be able to carry out digital transactions. Also, not all banks will let you exchange currencies and not all ATMs will have cash all the time.<\/p>\n<p>Africa is a vast and beautiful continent. Once you understand the differences in currencies, the continent opens up to you, baring its bounty of tourist destinations. Here, we have listed 4 popular North African countries and their currency guides, which will help you decided which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/international-tourism\/africa-tourism\/places-to-visit-in-africa\"><strong>places to visit\u00a0 Africa<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shall we begin?<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-1\">Egypt<\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30164\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Egypt.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-2\"><\/h2>\n<p>When we talk about Egypt, the first visual that comes to mind is Pyramid. While you must not miss out on visiting the iconic pyramids of Giza, there are other places such as the city of Luxor and the temples of Abu Simbel.<\/p>\n<p>The city of Luxor was the wealthiest city in ancient <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/international-tourism\/egypt-tourism\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Egypt<\/strong><\/a> and features a spectacular\u00a0complex of sanctuaries, kiosks, pylons and obelisks. You must also visit the Karnak, the most important place of worship in ancient Egypt. The Valley of the Kings and Queens, which is an ancient burial ground, lies just across the Nile River near Luxor.<\/p>\n<p>The archaic temples of Abu Simbel are fascinating with their high status and frieze carvings. These temples were carved out of the mountainside for Pharaoh Ramesses II in 13<sup>th<\/sup> century BC.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Egypt will surprise you with its diverse wildlife &#8211; particularly at the Ras Mohammed National Park. This park is located underwater in the Red Sea and features some of the most beautiful coral reefs in the world as well as enthralling shipwrecks from World War II.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Currency Guide:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While major cities in Egypt will have banks and exchange centres, it is always recommended to withdraw cash or encash traveller\u2019s cheques to get local currency. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/foreign-exchange\/currency-converter\/inr-to-egp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Egyptian pound<\/strong><\/a> is the currency used all across the country and is accepted everywhere. If you are going to stay in major cities and in high-end hotels, then you can use a forex card but if you plan to travel off the beaten track then keeping cash at your disposal is always a good idea.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/visit-africa-the-land-of-untamed-wilderness\/\">Read This:Visit Africa, the land of untamed wilderness<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"section-3\"><strong>Morocco<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30165\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Merenid-Tombs-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Morocco gives you a taste of rich ancient culture.

This museum is set up in an ancient palace and is filled with treasures found at various sites across Tunisia during excavation.<\/p>\n<p>Visiting the Sahara Desert must be in everyone\u2019s bucket list. While the Sahara Desert intersects through all the North African countries, the best part lies in Tunisia. Fascinating stone forts, granaries, sand dunes, salt lakes &#8211; this is the perfect destination for camping under the stars.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Currency Guide:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can easily exchange British Pounds, US Dollars and Euros for Tunisian Dinar. Other currencies might not be as widely exchanged or accepted. Hence, it\u2019s great to carry these three major currencies while visiting Tunisia. You can exchange the currencies at Exchange offices, banks, post offices and sometimes hotels. Most of the places in Tunisia only operate in cash and do not accept cards. Also, it is illegal to carry any Tunisian Dinars outside the country. So, make sure while leaving you don\u2019t have a single Dinar in your pocket.\u00a0 <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-5\"><strong>Algeria<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30167\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/oran-city-in-algeria-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldatlas.com\/articles\/biggest-cities-in-algeria.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a beautiful country surrounded by the Mediterranean coastline with stunning Roman architecture and lush green landscapes.
