Mac3

Although Macau has its own international airport with links to the likes of Bangkok, Singapore, Shanghai, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Osaka, Beijing and Sydney, most UK visitors arrive courtesy of flights to Hong Kong and a 45-minute ferry ride, arriving at the peninsula’s eastern waterfront.  Macau can also be reached by a 15-minute helicopter ride from Hong Kong or by road from mainland China.
