Day Trip in Macau

Here’s how to make the most of a laid-back Macau adventure, discovering awesome eats, hidden gems, and Venetian vibes 🎰🥐

Top Spots to Visit:
1. LORD STOW'S BAKERY (ORIGINAL SHOP) – G/F, 1 Tessa Street, Coloane City Center. Don’t leave without a bite of their legendary egg tarts (trust me, lives up to the hype). Go early to avoid crowds!
2. Chapel of St. Francis Xavier – R. do Caetano, Macao. Open daily 09:30-17:30. The pastel façade is perfect for snaps and you can wander the peaceful lanes nearby.
3. Coloane – Year-round, open all day. Coloane is Macau's best-kept secret; slow down and enjoy the relaxed local vibe by the sea. Take a walk, grab street food, and soak up historic spots between bakery runs.
4. The Venetian Macao – Estrada da Baía de Nossa Senhora da Esperança, Cotai Strip. This iconic resort is all about extravagance: shop, dine, take a gondola ride, or even just chill in your room (spacious, clean, luxurious). Don't skip the indoor canals or pools for a break from sightseeing.

Practical Tips:
- Macau’s own currency is Macanese pataca, but HK Dollars are accepted everywhere. So no stress on money exchange!
- Free shuttle buses from The Venetian make getting around super easy (hit Taipa Ferry, HZMB Macao Port, airport, and key spots).
- Coloane is a hidden gem, so carve out time for it even if your itinerary looks packed.
- The Venetian’s rooms are plush but expect possible long waits during check-in, and some facilities feel a bit retro—patience pays off for the experience!

Worth a try: Grab dim sum at one of Venetian’s restaurants, and don’t miss local cafes around Coloane for snacks!
