Top Destinations to visit for a Good USD Exchange Rate - My Life's a Travel Movie

Top destinations that have a good USD exchange rate can really make or break a trip. After all, if you want to experience a trip of a lifetime in a top destination you want to make sure every dollar is working for you.

Visiting top destinations where the US dollar is strong is an easy way to save money. It also means you can travel to what might typically be an expensive top destination (e.g. Japan) without having to completely break the bank.

Here is a round up of the top destinations that have a good US dollar exchange rate. Add these to the top of your bucket list and get out there and explore asap!

Top Destination 1: Morocco

Top destinations for US Travelers include Morocco

Exchange Rate: 1 United States Dollar = 9.50 Moroccan Dirham

Morocco is on the top of many travelers’ bucket lists, and it’s easy to see why. The country is absolutely stunning and full of beautiful (aka Instagram-worthy) souks and riads.

Don’t forget to book the best Sahara Desert tour while you’re there to make sure you have the most magical time in this natural African wonder.

As always, be sure to do your research before traveling to Morocco, including being mindful of safety tips. This is especially the case if you are a solo traveler.

Make the most of this excellent exchange rate and check out this top destination while you can!

Top Destination 2: South Africa

South Africa is one of the top destinations with a good US exchange rate

Exchange Rate: 1 United States Dollar = 13.80 South African Rand

South Africa is an amazing place to travel to and the ultimate top destination for nature lovers, animal enthusiasts and wanderlusters in general.

Cape Town is one of the most popular top destinations for travelers, with a hike up Lion’s Head, Camps Bay Strip and Clifton Beach as must see sites. Kruger National Park is also popular for travelers.

Don’t forget to check out some of the amazing wildlife via a safari, and if you’re feeling super adventurous check out somewhere like Muizenberg.

Be sure to check out this top destination while the exchange rate is so advantageous for US travelers.

Top Destination 3: India

Exchange Rate: 1 United States Dollar = 69 Indian Rupee

India is already an inexpensive country. So a good exchange rate will make your traveling experience in this top destination even better.

Known for its rich history and incredible sights, smells and sounds, India is a favourite destination for many travelers.

Be sure to explore the historic Taj Mahal, which is one of the 7 wonders of the world. And check out these tips if you want to get a photo in front of it without any other tourists in it.

The other most popular destinations in India include bustling New Delhi, royal Rajasthan and the beautiful blue city of Jodhpur.

Making the most of a good US exchange rate and traveling to India will guarantee that you have an epic sensory experience, that’s for sure!

Top Destination 4: Japan

Top destinations with a good US exchange rate include Japan

Exchange Rate: 1 United States Dollar = 113 Japanese Yen

Japan is traditionally a more expensive top destination so making the most of exchange rates is important here.

Not only is the exchange rate favourable for US travelers, Japan has also recently been one of the cheapest international destinations to travel to from the US.

Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka are some of the most popular destinations in Japan, and you don’t want to miss out on taking in the views of Mt. Fuji. You could also wander off the beaten track and check out Wakayama, which is located an hour south of Osaka.

Pro tip: Japan is a great destination for solo female travelers.

Don’t wait too long to head over to Japan though. Exchange rates are anticipated to rise in 2019, ahead of the 2020 Olympic Games being hosted in Tokyo.

Top Destination 5: Indonesia

US travelers will enjoy a good exchange rate in top destinations like Indonesia

Exchange Rate: 1 United States Dollar = 14,320 Indonesian Rupiah

Indonesia is another inexpensive top destination to travel in, and you can travel there on cheap flights from the US by following this guide.

Bali is the most popular spot for travelers in Indonesia, and it’s easy to see why. It is full of beautiful beaches and villas and a ton of great photo opportunities.

Of course, being so popular means that some spots in Bali charge tourist prices. But, overall, it’s still a cheap place to visit, and you can still feel  like you’re balling on a budget while there.

Indonesia is also home to some stunning waterfalls to chase (despite what TLC said), and Flores Island which is home to the famous Komodo Island (aka, home of the Komodo Dragon).

So what are you waiting for?! Book your flights and pack your bags. It’s time to indulge in a luxury vacation, minus the luxury price tag, thanks to the excellent US exchange rate.

In addition to making the most of the excellent US exchange rate to check out one (or all) of these top destinations, you may also want to play some flight roulette to get your hands on some cheap airfares.

Which of these top destinations are you keen to check out first? Comment below to share your thoughts and experiences!

  • 10/10 the best self defense lesson and stress relief retreat ever in Fukushima, Japan 🥷🏼😂 You can take samurai lessons with a real life samurai (and famous youtuber) and then practice on the cardboard “enemy”, and later go steam it out at the onsen! Full info and itinerary on my blog, including how to book it! There’s not many tour options here in Fukushima so the best option is to get there by car 😬
  • I hate that IG has changed so much that each of these photos can’t have their own individual post. Or should they? I think they should, but IG literally says to do Carousels and Reels…then I end up not posting so many unique moments, that I once used to post individually almost every day! I miss those days and I’m so grateful I started all of this when a single photo post was all you did…a thousand words in one photo. How do I even explain what each of these photos held? I can write it on my blog but 🤖 will just summarize me in the search results. I can spend hours making a reel, only for the system to analyze it’s not interesting enough ugh because not enough people watched past 6 seconds (yes that is the current algorithm) So I guess I’ll just keep my memories in my mind and share the tips and pretty photos! And keep trying to add in those BTS moments, like the last one, which is what we were actually doing most of the time 😂 Definitely a major highlight of this #fukushima trip was the Samurai class and the onsen town, I’d go back there for both! All of I was very stress relieving! Anyone missing the one photo post days? Or wishing they could take a Samurai class right now? 😬 #japan #samuraiclass #japantips #mylifesatravelmovie
  • Don’t go to Japan and ONLY visit Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, when there are beautiful hidden gems like Fukushima, just an hour train ride away! I’ve been to Japan six times now, and have visited six prefectures as well, and I can honestly say that Fukushima was so impressive, that we extended our stay! I know some people hear “Fukushima” and associate it with the tragedy that happened there in the past, but that was 15 years ago, and today Fukushima is not only safe, but thriving with nature, culture, and traditional, unique experiences! Some of my favorite things to do there were: - Take a Samurai class (GREAT for stress relief) - Stay at a Ryokan and go to the many onsens - Make your own sushi and eat a lot of it! - Visit the Fukushima Museum of Art to see famous pieces and traditional ones - Stroll around Ouchi Juku old town and eat the soba noodles with a giant green onion - Go for a hike in the mountain National Parks or boat ride on the lakes This is also where we did that fun little self-made “free foot spa crawl”, and I’d honestly go back just to do that and stay in that area again! (Actually we might, anyone want to join?) All of the information to plan your trip to Fukushima is on my blog, and also more BTS videos are on the highlight on my profile! Which of these sounds most magical to you? #Fukushima #FukushimaTravel #JapanTravelTips #japan #solotravel
  • Only 0.01% of humans have passed 80 degrees North latitude and guess who’s one of them? THIS GIRL! (And 26 of my Travel Tribe friends) 💪🏽 Sailing through the Arctic Pack Ice is a huge achievement because that means you’re close to the North Pole (90 degrees North), which you can only reach via the Pack Ice (so if it’s melted…you can’t reach it) In the past this area was only traveled by famous explorers, meanwhalers/trappers/hunters, researchers, photographers, and wealthy adventurers, and also mostly men (shocker, I know). Then there’s us, reaching 81 degrees North, mostly because we want to see Polar Bears and other wildlife, and tick the Arctic Circle off of our bucketlist! I’m pretty proud to be an unconventional female adventurer, and to be able to “influence” others to do the same! I may not look the stereotypical part of an explorer; but let me tell you how much warmer that girl in the hot pink swimsuit was in the jacuzzi looking for polar bears than everyone else was!! (Well, at least having extra amounts of fun 😂) I’m so grateful to have been to Svalbard twice now, it’s truly a peculiar and interesting place! If it’s on your to-go list, drop me a comment and I’ll send you the info for this trip plus five-hundo-off 😁 Drone footy by the Polar Latitudes Photographers who have a permit to fly there (guests cannot): @vegarabelsnes @stevenrosephotography #svalbard #packice #thearctic #arcticexpedition #womenwhoexplore
  • Happy World Ocean Day! Here’s some ocean insights from someone who has swam in all 5 oceans (can anyone name them?), has crossed the Drake Passage 8 times and recently voyaged through Arctic pack ice, who has scuba dove in over 30 countries, learned to free dive only because they’re trying to keep up with animals, and has developed a severe obsession with swimming with marine apex predators, and all the creatures! First and foremost — the Ocean is more powerful than humans are. Don’t mess with it or it will mess with you. One of the many things I learned during the lectures in Antarctica is that krill (tiny little animals that 🐋’s eat) is in danger of being over-fished, so avoid products that use it. Try to only eat locally caught fish, avoid big companies that use ghost nets — the number one killer of marine animals aside from actual hunting, and yes, people still do that too in places like Japan, Iceland, Faroe Islands, and USA. Speaking of the U.S… the place I’m from, FLORIDA, is one of the top killers of my beloved SHARKS, and right now the gov is trying to stop Shark tourism there, such as diving with sharks (my favorite hobby), something that really does protect these extremely necessary animals as opposed to all the people there that kill them for business or for FUN 😡 Some will say that this and other swimming with marine animal excursions are “unethical” but guess what happens if there’s no tourism demand? They kill them to sell. I’ve seen it over the years and I’m highly experienced with ethical and non-ethical tourism! So for this World Ocean Day, I am asking you to please share this post, and sign the petition on my Stories against the stopping of shark diving in Florida! And if you sign it and want to come with me next time I visit for the holidays, I’ll give you first dibs and a discount and also a glass of my vino!!! Thank you for reading this if you got this far! I know I write too much! 🐳🐋🦭🐟🐠🦈🦈🦈🦈
  • People always ask if I’m afraid an Orca is going to come attack me whenever I post my Polar Plunge videos, so here’s me doing my 4th Polar Plunge mixed with me snorkeling peacefully with Orcas a month earlier in Mexico. The only records of Orcas attacking humans are the ones forced into captivity, so just don’t support zoos and aquariums, and you’ll have no problem plunging! 😁 This Polar Plunge was my first one in the Arctic (Svalbard, the other 3 in Antarctica) and as much as I dread the cold, I always hype up to do it — actually a crew member explained it better than I’ve ever heard: “The shock on your body is like doing c****aine but without the crash” (I don’t do that but it was funny). I actually only fear being cold the moments beforehand, and the jacuzzi being full. Marine animals are always hoped for, though maybe not a Polar Bear! Health assessments and safety hardnesses are always required for Polar Plunges off expeditions ships. Animal behavior evaluation and strong swimming skills is required for swimming with Orcas, at least with ethical operators! Info for both adventures are on my website, linked in bio! Would you Polar Plunge ?!?! Someone please drop the new orca emoji, I haven’t updated my phone yet! #polarplunge #orcas #swimmingwithorcas #svalbard
  • Swipe to see the Polar Bears we got to see in the Arctic! 🐻‍❄️ The first 4 photos are mine (captured with a 550 mm lens from 500+ meters away and heavily edited and enhanced for clarity!) check out the reel before this one to see what it was like trying to take a long distance photo from a moving boat! The rest of the photos were captured by one of the many amazing crew members @stevenrosephotography who was kind enough to always immediately airdrop us his pictures after taking them! More disclosures: these photos look like we were close to them but we weren’t - Norway has strict rules and regulations to prevent disturbing these nearly endangered animals, whose biggest threat is climate change. In fact, if you’re on a land or zodiac tour and a bear is spotted, you have to immediately go back to the ship! It also took us several days and endless hours searching with binoculars to see them in Svalbard, and it happened to be the day we decided to all dress up like polar bears! So imagine having a polar animal onesie party and suddenly getting called to go out to the deck to see a real polar bear! In my mind, we manifested them into existence! We saw a total of 5 bears: two sets of mama and cubs, and then the swimming male (all separate locations), and I still cannot believe it! I’m so in awe of the polar bears that I’m already eyeing a trip to Churchill and Greenland 👀 possible also to see some Belugas! *The very last photo is from Steve’s trip to Churchill! Have you seen a polar bear? Is it on your bucketlist? Lots more Arctic content coming - please be sure to follow me @mylifesatravelmovie for rare, unique, adventure destinations and experiences, and @mylifesatraveltribe if you’d like to join me on one! #svalbard #thearctic #polarbears #mylifesatravelmovie
  • WE SAW THE POLAR BEARS OF SVALBARD!! 🐻‍❄️ After spending a full day on the pack ice (thick sheets of ice and snow that make up the Arctic near the North Pole) where Polar Bears are usually seen, and not seeing anything but tracks, I lost hope of seeing one. Then yesterday, we all dressed up as Polar Bears (one of my signature expedition events 😂) and as we were dancing around and singing, we finally heard the call that a Polar Bear had been spotted!! This morning at 7am, the crew announced over the speakers that there were more! A mama and baby! I’ve never flown out of bed so fast in my life! We were able to get on the zodiacs (small inflatable boats) and get closer to them, but new regulations make you stay back 500 meters now, so we saw them the best through binoculars, and luckily a lot of people have those mega zoom lenses! The photos in this video are mine, but they are heavily edited and enhanced — it was too hard for me to aim the camera on a moving boat while also freezing 🥶 Hopefully we will have the crew’s photos soon!! Seeing polar bears in the Arctic was one of my biggest dreams and bucketlist checks, and I truly think the energy we put out yesterday helped make it happen (the captain and crew mostly made it happen of course!) Thanks everyone who sent us good animal spotting energy! This was such a wild and magical experience! More info coming soon! Can you believe we saw them?! Please like/comment/reshare if you’d like to keep seeing my posts in your newsfeed! Thank you! #svalbard #thearctic #polarbear #mylifesatravelmovie #bucketlist
  • Today we reached 82 degrees north in latitude! That means we’re pretty close to the North Pole! We’re slowly moving through the Pack Ice, which is what makes up the actual North Pole, and our ship has an “ice breaker” bow which slices easily through the thick floating ice. This is Polar Bear territory, so we’ve been on the lookout all day for them, but it’s also extremely cold, so I thought it would be best to take the rear lookout station…in the jacuzzi! No bear sightings yet, but lots of bear tracks! This might be one of the most elusive animals I’ve attempted seeing, and if we don’t see them this trip, I may be going to Greenland or Canada next year!! Stay tuned for more Arctic content and some other major bucketlist destinations! #svalbard #thearctic #arcticcircle #mylifesatravelmovie #bucketlist

I hate that IG has changed so much that each of these photos can’t have their own individual post. Or should they? I think they should, but IG literally says to do Carousels and Reels…then I end up not posting so many unique moments, that I once used to post individually almost every day! I miss those days and I’m so grateful I started all of this when a single photo post was all you did…a thousand words in one photo. How do I even explain what each of these photos held? I can write it on my blog but 🤖 will just summarize me in the search results. I can spend hours making a reel, only for the system to analyze it’s not interesting enough ugh because not enough people watched past 6 seconds (yes that is the current algorithm) So I guess I’ll just keep my memories in my mind and share the tips and pretty photos! And keep trying to add in those BTS moments, like the last one, which is what we were actually doing most of the time 😂 Definitely a major highlight of this #fukushima trip was the Samurai class and the onsen town, I’d go back there for both! All of I was very stress relieving! Anyone missing the one photo post days? Or wishing they could take a Samurai class right now? 😬 #japan #samuraiclass #japantips #mylifesatravelmovie

Happy World Ocean Day! Here’s some ocean insights from someone who has swam in all 5 oceans (can anyone name them?), has crossed the Drake Passage 8 times and recently voyaged through Arctic pack ice, who has scuba dove in over 30 countries, learned to free dive only because they’re trying to keep up with animals, and has developed a severe obsession with swimming with marine apex predators, and all the creatures!

People always ask if I’m afraid an Orca is going to come attack me whenever I post my Polar Plunge videos, so here’s me doing my 4th Polar Plunge mixed with me snorkeling peacefully with Orcas a month earlier in Mexico.

Swipe to see the Polar Bears we got to see in the Arctic! 🐻‍❄️ The first 4 photos are mine (captured with a 550 mm lens from 500+ meters away and heavily edited and enhanced for clarity!) check out the reel before this one to see what it was like trying to take a long distance photo from a moving boat! The rest of the photos were captured by one of the many amazing crew members @stevenrosephotography who was kind enough to always immediately airdrop us his pictures after taking them! More disclosures: these photos look like we were close to them but we weren’t - Norway has strict rules and regulations to prevent disturbing these nearly endangered animals, whose biggest threat is climate change. In fact, if you’re on a land or zodiac tour and a bear is spotted, you have to immediately go back to the ship! It also took us several days and endless hours searching with binoculars to see them in Svalbard, and it happened to be the day we decided to all dress up like polar bears! So imagine having a polar animal onesie party and suddenly getting called to go out to the deck to see a real polar bear! In my mind, we manifested them into existence! We saw a total of 5 bears: two sets of mama and cubs, and then the swimming male (all separate locations), and I still cannot believe it! I’m so in awe of the polar bears that I’m already eyeing a trip to Churchill and Greenland 👀 possible also to see some Belugas! *The very last photo is from Steve’s trip to Churchill! Have you seen a polar bear? Is it on your bucketlist?

WE SAW THE POLAR BEARS OF SVALBARD!! 🐻‍❄️ After spending a full day on the pack ice (thick sheets of ice and snow that make up the Arctic near the North Pole) where Polar Bears are usually seen, and not seeing anything but tracks, I lost hope of seeing one. Then yesterday, we all dressed up as Polar Bears (one of my signature expedition events 😂) and as we were dancing around and singing, we finally heard the call that a Polar Bear had been spotted!! This morning at 7am, the crew announced over the speakers that there were more! A mama and baby! I’ve never flown out of bed so fast in my life! We were able to get on the zodiacs (small inflatable boats) and get closer to them, but new regulations make you stay back 500 meters now, so we saw them the best through binoculars, and luckily a lot of people have those mega zoom lenses! The photos in this video are mine, but they are heavily edited and enhanced — it was too hard for me to aim the camera on a moving boat while also freezing 🥶 Hopefully we will have the crew’s photos soon!! Seeing polar bears in the Arctic was one of my biggest dreams and bucketlist checks, and I truly think the energy we put out yesterday helped make it happen (the captain and crew mostly made it happen of course!) Thanks everyone who sent us good animal spotting energy! This was such a wild and magical experience! More info coming soon! Can you believe we saw them?! Please like/comment/reshare if you’d like to keep seeing my posts in your newsfeed! Thank you! #svalbard #thearctic #polarbear #mylifesatravelmovie #bucketlist

Today we reached 82 degrees north in latitude! That means we’re pretty close to the North Pole! We’re slowly moving through the Pack Ice, which is what makes up the actual North Pole, and our ship has an “ice breaker” bow which slices easily through the thick floating ice. This is Polar Bear territory, so we’ve been on the lookout all day for them, but it’s also extremely cold, so I thought it would be best to take the rear lookout station…in the jacuzzi! No bear sightings yet, but lots of bear tracks! This might be one of the most elusive animals I’ve attempted seeing, and if we don’t see them this trip, I may be going to Greenland or Canada next year!! Stay tuned for more Arctic content and some other major bucketlist destinations! #svalbard #thearctic #arcticcircle #mylifesatravelmovie #bucketlist
