This was a great tour! We visited the top destinations and had a lovely local lunch. I enjoyed the tour and would recommend it.

Patrick was a great tour guide. Tour is a good sampling of what Macau is like, but there is a lot to squeeze into a short amount of time. Would definitely recommend if you're just interested in quick highlights of Macau... probably not recommend if you're looking to have a full Macanese experience as it is a bit rushed.

Great alternative for a quick visit to Macau. They give you a few tips before boarding on the TurboJet ferry in HK, but it’s the same boat you get if you were doing it by yourself. Arriving in Macau, Patricio (guide) welcomed us and explained the route. He did a great job creating a funny and enjoyable experience. The transport was made with a small bus - necessary as Macau is not as walkable as HK. From the harbour, we were taken to the A’ama Temple, the oldest temple of the city. We were later taken to a Portuguese bakery next to it and encouraged to shop, which was a bummer. Also, it is a chain store, so you’ll have the same shop in the city center. From then, we were taken to historical Portuguese spots with plenty of time to enjoy, take pictures and explore by ourselves. We didn’t stop at the Lotus Casino, as it was quite central, busy and not welcoming for kids - their argument. I missed a quick stop around this casino, as it is probably the most iconic of Macau. We were taken to a Chinese restaurant inside a hotel for lunch: 4/10 for the food and ambient - could be much better. From there, a stop at the strip in the southern part of Macau with the newest casinos. Last stop was the Venetian, where we spent ~1-1h30 and then picked up again to get the 5pm ferry back to HK. Overall, it’s ok if you’re by yourself or with family and want something quick and hassle free through Macau. In hindsight, I would have gone by myself, got a cab to A’ama Temple, the Portuguese Senate Square and historical sites, then to the Lotus Casino, lunch at a Portuguese or Chinese restaurant and then headed off to the ferry again. The big stop at the bakery and the Venetian are not the best use of time. The new strip is a copy of Las Vega - if you think you’ll have the opportunity to explore the original in Nevada sometime in your life, avoid the one in Macau.

It is a good way to visit Macau, very confortable and well organized. You don’t have to worry about anything. Macau was full of people, the guide knows exactly how to moves and take you to the main point of interest. Macau is a very interesting place to visit, a mixture of cultures: the portuguesa and the Chinese. visiting at the end of the day the Vegas of Asia is beautiful. Impressive buildings, casinos and shopping . All of the people involved in the organization of the tour we’re very nice. The tour guide nice and knowledgeable.
