I find the major bank (maybe Santander) and just use my ATM to withdraw what I need.
I do not have int'l transaction fees and by going directly through the bank you typically get the interbank rate.
Visa will work in major establishments, but forget about Amex or anything else.

Bring about a 1000 USD and I have a Debit Master Card and Visa and you should be ok. I have been to 16 countries and have not had an issue. I live in Manila and I use the Debit and Visa Card here with no issues. I have a Daily Limit on my Debit Card and the banks here have a Daily Limit but it works ok. I have been using ATM's for 17 years now.
