Why Order Travel Money With TUI?
How to get the most from your Chinese yuan on holiday
If you’re heading to China for your holiday this year, you’ll want to take some Chinese yuan with you. Chinese yuan – shown as ¥ or CNY – is a basic unit of the renminbi – RMB, which is the national currency for the People’s Republic of China – PRC. Calling renminbi ‘yuan’ is common in both China and around the world.
As with all exchange rates, the pound to yuan rate does fluctuate, but the average in early 2023 was around 7.72 CNY for every £1.
Where can you get Chinese yuan for your holiday?
Finding your travel money is easy. Simply pop into your nearest TUI Store or visit TUI online for all the Chinese yuan you’ll need.
Your daily budget for Chinese yuan
China is popular with both backpackers and holidaymakers, so your holiday budget for a trip to PRC will depend on what type of adventure you’re looking for.
For hostels, street food, bike travel and free entertainment, aim to budget for roughly ¥200 per person, per day. For a less basic trip with activities, restaurants, drinks and taxi fares, ¥300 to ¥800 per day will give you plenty of options.
