Here at Expedia, we’ve come up with plenty of ways for you to save. Start by bundling your hotel and flight bookings into a Macau Holiday Package. We have 85 hotels to choose from starting at HK$153 a night. You can also add other bookings and get an even better deal. Want to rent a car, go on a tour or find an experience unique to the area? No problem. How about viewing the bright lights of Macau at night on an open-top bus tour?
Day 1: Touchdown at Macau International Airport, check in to your hotel and get stuck into exploring. Senado Square, the Ruins of St. Paul’s and Mount Fortress are all close together and well worth a look.
Day 2: Learn more about Macau’s history at the Mandarin’s House. Originally owned by prominent literary figure Zheng Guanying, this residential complex features a blend of Western and traditional Chinese architectural styles. Don’t miss the Moorish Barracks or St. Lawrence’s Church too.
Day 3: For unbeatable views, head up to the observation deck at Macau Tower. Take in the stunning skyline and treat yourself to a buffet lunch. If an adrenaline rush is what you’re looking for, sign up for a bungee jump and plunge off the edge of this 338-metre-tall building. It’s the highest commercial bungee jump in the world.
Macau celebrates its National Day on October 1 each year. While the largest festivities are held in Tiananmen Square in China, you’ll find fireworks, dancing and other ceremonies in Macau as well.
