Macau, Monte Carlo, and Las Vegas have become the world’s three largest casinos. But Macau is also a place with a strong exotic atmosphere. You can see signs in various languages everywhere on the street, characteristic Portuguese-style historical buildings, casinos, luxury hotels, and authentic cuisine comparable to Las Vegas. Here is a detailed guide to the free tour of Macau on the 2nd.
Macau travel needs to prepare and detailed attractions planning are as follows:
Visa
The procedures, fees, and duration can be inquired on the entry and exit website of the Public Security Bureau (valid for 10 years, endorsement 15RMB/time). If it is a card, the group tour can also pass the customs directly without accompanying the group.
Currency
It is very convenient to buy in the bank in advance or to exchange it at the port and Macau. At the same time, shopping in Macau generally accepts Hong Kong dollars, Macau patacas, and the Renminbi, but they usually charge 1:1, so currency exchange is more cost-effective.
Wifi
Telephone operators have opened Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan data packages. If you don’t need to make and receive calls, you can’t open it. There is free wifi in many places in Macau.
Transportation
Macau buses usually cost 6 Australian dollars, so you need to prepare some change. At the same time, there are many free fortune cars leading to the casino at the gate and the airport.
Hotel
Macau hotels are generally more expensive, most of which are star-rated hotels near shopping malls and casinos. Generally, it is cheaper to book more than 1-2 days in advance; at the same time, it is relatively cheaper to take a 10-minute walk from the attraction.
Food
There are still many delicacies near Ruins of St. Paul’s in Macau: Portuguese tarts, milk tea, pork chop buns, Ma Jie Huo balls, curry chicken pie, and other specialties. The price is slightly more expensive than inland. Mcdonald McDonald’s everywhere is also nearly 50% more expensive than in other places.
Custom
Zhuhai Gongbei Port is very convenient, but avoid the morning and evening peaks. The self-service channel with the Hong Kong and Macau Pass is still very fast. On the contrary, if you hold a passport or this type of pass, you will take the artificial passage.
