It takes me only about 1 hr to pass through GongBei. As holder of APEC business card, I do not really need to queue at GongBei custom (Can use diplomatic lane). A taxi from the Macau airport to Kwang Hao (Custom) is only about 60 HKD.

For those want to save on taxi, you can also take a bus from Airport to Venetian and then take another bus to Kwang Hao.

Some time, I will take a bus to Sand and then have dinner there. For about 200 hkd. You get excellent buffet especially the sashimi.

Please don't see CASH KING no up!
CASH KING don't go for anything that is FOC one!
He told me if he arrived at Macau Airport he'll only take taxi to Border Gate to enter ZH.

That's why he don't know all these wonderful casino shuttle buses that can take you to Border Gate, Macau Ferry Terminal, Taipa Ferry Terminal, Hengqin Border and Macau Airport! All FOC during operating hours. In Macau I don't even have to take public transport.

And thanks to all bros for the information ...

Operating hours is important. If your flight is after 10pm, most probably you need to take taxi liao. If I remember correctly, the last bus to airport is 8.30 or so. Please double check.

Last bus from casinos to Border Gate is usually 11:30pm but don't line up too late as there'll be many passengers taking the last bus also. Queue at 10:30-11:00pm is quite safe. It takes about 20-30min to reach the Border Gate depending on traffic conditions. At 11:30pm the immigration on both sides are very smooth even on weekends.

Yes better take note of operating hours.

Last bus from Venetian to Macau Airport is 9pm. Does anyone knows which other casino provides shuttle service to/fro Macau Airport? City Of Dreams used to have but have ceased the service since 2 months ago.

If I've a very late flight I walk from City Of Dreams/Venetian Casino to Macau Airport!

yes hengqin is quite far off... i got the feeling it was like no man's land haha.

so taxi fare will be expensive. once when i was in a rush, green taxi also tried to quote me 200rmb so i guess that's the standard rate they try to chop, but in the end i f--- the driver jialat jialat and paid 60rmb

btw bro how do u apply for the APEC card? always envy the diplomatic lane when the foreigner lane is damn damn long queue..

I've used hengqin custom for quite a few times during my trip to zhuhai. Taxi fare is mostly around 70RMB if u board in gongbei area.

Personally feel the money is well spent. I save alot on time and energy instead of sweating it out at gongbei custom. Upon exit the Venetian bus will take me to casino in less than 15mins.

Just take note hengqin closes at 8pm or so.

[tomjoe]
