Lots of good ideas here however as well as the above options I always have some US dollars with me as in an emergency they are accepted everywhere !!

We have been travelling in UK and Ireland. We have used the Wise card for multi currency Euros and Pounds, the fees to change currencies are very low and the exchange rate is better than any bank and travel card I have used previously. Everywhere accepts Google or Apple Pay except some market stalls so a small amount of cash is needed. We took some Aussie dollars for this and exchanged in each country, not using an ATM.

Be careful though - I have become unstuck overseas with 2FA when I have used a local e-sim. Roaming fees can really add up and a local sim be much cheaper. However if you need to receive a text on your Australian number to transact, it won't come through!
