    There are traditional manned Bureaux de Changes at the big city stations (eg Geneva and Basel)

    Hi Chiranjib De –

    Welcome to My Swiss Alps. Hope you nhave time during your stay to appreciate Switzerland.-

    You got your answer, from a knowledgeable forum member, and those currency exchange offices exist even though they are not always named in French. 😉

    Although the Swiss Frank is the best currency to use in Switzerland, many places, especially in the major tourist destinations, accept Euros. You will get CHF for change, and the exchange rate for your bill is not predictable.
