- TheOExpress🏴🇭🇰Hong Kong, China4,476 contributions…are pretty great and it’s fascinating to see how much the city in Guangdong has sprouted so quickly. However compared to lots of other viewing towers, it doesn’t seem like all that much thought has been given to the experience on the viewing platforms, other than funnelling people toward the very pricey air walk and bungee jump. Still, at its central aim, it’s great to see! Especially when walking on the glass and looking down, that’s a very good feature.Written 9 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Paul J23 contributionsLots of alleyways, glimpses of the old amongst the new, little cafes, little communities with a real fusion of Portuguese and Chinese.Written 24 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- patrickperbkkPerth, Australia1,220 contributionsThe Senado Square is one the landmarks in Macau. Lots of shops, cafes and restaurants.
A very good walk from Senado to St Paul's Cathedral.Written 4 April 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Now reclaimed and connected with Taipa, the small village remains the serene vibe and has attracted tourists interested in the real, non-gambling side of the former Portuguese colony. A walk along the coastal thoroughfare is particularly carefree. Transport can be an issue as buses become full soon.Written 11 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LeonhknyHong Kong, China13,897 contributionsWhile gambling may be a relatively recent symbol of Macau, A-Ma Temple has long been the de facto landmark of the former Portuguese colony. This small worshiping place has not only witnessed the development of Macau from a secluded village to the Las Vegas of the Orient, but also reflected the city's maritime root. The structure is always popular and smoldered in burning incense.Written 10 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LeonhknyHong Kong, China13,897 contributionsTaipa is a must for all first-time Macau visitors. The small collection of alleys with colonial charm is the most popular attraction in the area. Nearly all tourist shops have an outlet here. This is also the best time to visit as the streets are not fully saturated at this moment.Written 10 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MaJoaoMacau, China188 contributionsA nice place for contemplation, peaceful moments and to absolve positive energy from the sun, nature itself and the elements in it. You can enjoy birdwatching, admiring the fish and turtles swimming or resting under a shade.Written 11 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alaa El GamalCairo, Egypt20 contributionsGoing through the highest official bungee jumping experience on the planet was nothing short of breathtaking, the jump was even more astonishing than how I expected.
What added greatly to the experience was the skypark team with their friendly and effective attitude in giving me the valuable tips and then preparing me for the jump.
The checking and re checking of my equipment and my safety measures made me more comfortable and left no room for worrying at all.
With the exception of the reception lady who received me to finish up my registration at the top floor of the tower, who was a bit grumpy, everyone else was fun and friendly and extremely proficient.Written 29 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Loyal to the colonial root, Our Lady of Penha is a small institution of Catholicism. What makes it stand out is the unparalleled panorama of Macau. Even the skyscrapers in Zhuhai are easily discernible. Beware that the walk up hill can be challenging for some.Written 10 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ROCruiserClaremont, CA4,634 contributionsWe made good use of their free shuttles from the ferry terminal which was quite convenient although crowded. We waited in line but it moved quickly. Coupon books were given when boarding the bus and we were able to receive a free umbrella each using one of the coupons inside. This is probably the most popular and oldest casino in Macau. It's much more like any other casinos in Las Vegas comparing to the time I came here forty years ago.Written 7 April 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
