Forex Card recommendation

Hi, can anyone recommend a good Forex card for international travel (UK/ Europe). Checked with a few friends who usually use their credit card internationally but I don't want to do that (cos I don't have one atm). Suggestions and advice are welcome :)

Have you used it? How was your experience, and does it take long to get it activated

Used it . It has no markup cost and opt for credit card . It takes minimum 5k to load , the physical card should come in a week. Works almost everywhere

I'm something of an expert here.

Credit Card for future - RBL world safari. It has 0% forex markup, +free travel insurance. I did half of my transactions on this card. There are other CCs which have a better reward rate, but I'll ignore them since you're not into CCs.
Niyo global debit card - It's good. Money loading and unloading works great. Unfortunately, the ATM charges are a bit too much right now - Rs 400+
On a recent trip in a cash heavy country, I used the Thomas Cook One currency card. It worked well, but I had to pay USD 2 for each ATM withdrawal.
Finally, I am going to open an IndusInd Exclusive account. This gives me a 0% Forex markup, 0 ATM fee debit card worldwide.
