If you have a bank card you can just withdraw money here and the exchange will be done by your bank.
Or will you be carrying cash?

Just change it at the airport.
ATM (cash) card, at least as a backup.

At the airport. No problem.
The airport is the best place, there are exchanges all over the place in the airport.
In my experience, you can get it done at banks but the main problem is that the banks that do it are harder to find, and if you do one, their english skills make it difficult to deal with them in many cases.
