What Macau costs
once you land
Real prices, from the airport ride to a room for the night, each with where we found it. Checked October 2026, around Macau Peninsula and Taipa.
Prices as the source quoted them.
Half a villa or 4-star room, two meals out, a coffee, two beers and the signature experience.
