ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

YOUR TRIP DESIGN, PACE & FLEXIBILITY: This Macao Heritage Escape is fully private and built around your preferred dates, pace and comfort level, focusing on Macao’s UNESCO-listed historic core, Portuguese-influenced culture and distinctive food scene. We will advise the best routing and timings to keep touring efficient and unhurried—planning visits around the strongest light, manageable crowd periods and sensible walking loops—then refine the day-by-day with you. The programme is easy to tailor: add extra time for museums and galleries, include a food-focused evening, or extend the stay for a slower rhythm and deeper neighbourhood exploration.

PRIVATE GUIDES, DRIVERS & ON-THE-GROUND SUPPORT: This is a high-end private journey with professional local guides meeting you for key touring days and private transfers arranged where they add comfort and efficiency. We manage smooth arrivals, seamless hotel check-ins, and door-to-door coordination for heritage walks and timed visits so you are met where needed and the experience feels effortless. Macao is compact, but crowd patterns and event schedules can change the best touring windows; we keep the plan flexible, adjusting sequencing on the day to protect the most enjoyable timings. Dining reservations and curated food stops can be arranged to match your preferences.

ACCOMMODATION STANDARDS & MEAL BASIS: We select premium, well-located accommodation to match your brief, prioritising comfort, service and easy access to the historic centre and key dining areas. Room category, bedding preferences and upgrades can be confirmed early, particularly on weekends and during major events. Breakfast is typically included, with other meals arranged around your preferences—ranging from refined restaurants to classic Macanese and Portuguese-influenced favourites, with reservations secured where needed. Dietary requirements are generally straightforward to accommodate with advance notice, and we will plan restaurant choices accordingly. Your final itinerary will confirm what is included each day.

FLIGHTS, VISAS, HEALTH & TRAVEL INSURANCE: International flights are optional: we can arrange the trip as land-only, or include flights as a flight-inclusive package under our ATOL (where applicable). If you are combining Macao with Hong Kong or Mainland China, we will advise the most practical routing and timing for ferry crossings and transfers. Entry requirements depend on your passport and routing; we will guide you on typical requirements and timing, while you remain responsible for meeting entry rules. Activity levels are light-to-moderate with city walking, steps and uneven heritage streets, and pacing can be adjusted. Comprehensive travel insurance is essential, including medical cover and disruption.

COSTING, PAYMENTS, CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS: Tailor-made pricing is built from live supplier rates (hotels, private transfers, guides and any booked experiences), so availability and costs can change until services are secured. The main price drivers are seasonality, premium hotel inventory (often tighter on weekends), and any curated experiences such as specialist guiding, private tastings or upgraded dining. Some high-demand hotels and services may require advance payments or stricter deadlines to secure space; we will confirm exactly what is due and by when before taking payment. Changes after booking can trigger supplier fees or rate differences; we will explain the impact before actioning changes and provide clear documentation of deadlines and terms.
