Transportation

Airport - Macau's airport isn't very busy, so expect quick turn arounds. There are many links to Asian cities and there are helicopter shuttles to Hong Kong. Helicopter shuttles take about 20 minutes and cost around MOP 1,300. The airport tax is MOP 80 to China Mainland and MOP 130 to other destinations.

Bus - There are many buses to Zhuhai and Guangzhou via "Barrier Gate."

Ferry - There are numerous options for heading to Hong Kong and Shenzhen. The fastest boats will get you to Hong Kong in less than an hour. Ticket prices depend on date and time of travel, but are generally around MOP 150. The ferry dock is at the Macau Ferry Terminal in the Outer Harbor. Passengers should arrive at the dock 30 minutes before departure for customs procedures.

Taxi - Taxis are reasonably priced, MOP 20 to 30 for most destinations, but most drivers don't speak English. There's a MOP 5 surcharge to Taipa Island and MOP10 to Coloane Island, flag-fall is MOP 9. Pedi-cabs (tricycles) are restricted to the waterfront area and can be more expensive than taxis, but they're slow and allows you to soak in the atmosphere. Pedi-cabs are MOP 25 per trip and about MOP 100 for an hour of touring.
