CSA Travel Protection helps vacationers get the best bang for the buck when
traveling abroad

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- CSA Travel Protection, a company
dedicated to providing value-driven travel insurance and emergency assistance
services, offers a list of International travel destinations with the best
U.S. dollar exchange rates. A sagging economy, high gas prices and weakening
dollar don't mean the end of traveling abroad.
While some vacationers choose to save money during these trying times by
staying closer to home, there will always be those who still want to
experience different cultures. According to the latest data from X-Rates.com,
Asian countries offer American tourists the best value for their money.
Topping the list is South Korea, with nearly 1,016 Won to one U.S. dollar.
That means the average American tourist can buy a grand, fun week in Seoul on
the cheap.
The top five destinations with the best U.S. dollar exchange rate*:
1. South Korea
2. Sri Lanka
3. Japan
4. India
5. Thailand

For those wanting to stay on the North American continent, Mexico is the
best choice. With the Mexican Peso being nearly the equivalent of a dime, it's
the seventh best exchange rate. England remains the worst travel value, with
the English Pound worth nearly two dollars. European countries trading the
Euro are a close second.
Traveling abroad can mean longer flights, language barriers and exposure
to unfamiliar ailments. Travel insurance protects vacationers from these and
other unforeseen circumstances. Consumer can find out more about how travel
insurance can help them on their next trip by visiting
