Questions about this package
How do I get from Hong Kong to Macau?
By ferry, approx. 1 hour. Your driver takes you to the ferry terminal, and you are met in Macau for the transfer to your hotel. The ferry tickets and transfers are included.
How do I get back to Hong Kong airport?
By shuttle bus across the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge, then a short bus ride to the airport, approx. 1 hour 30 minutes in total with border checks. Your transfer to the bridge and the bus tickets are included.
Do I need my passport to travel to Macau?
Yes. Hong Kong and Macau have separate border controls, so you show your passport each way. Check the entry requirements for your passport before you travel.
Is halal food available in Macau?
There is less choice than in Hong Kong. Macau has a mosque and a small number of halal-certified restaurants, and seafood is widely served. We can suggest restaurants before you travel.
Can I change the number of nights?
Yes. You can stay longer in either city, or swap your Hong Kong hotel for one on Hong Kong Island. Tell us your dates and we’ll price it for you.
