China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC), is a unitary sovereign state in East Asia and the world's most populous country, with a population of around 1.404 billion. Covering approximately 9,600,000 square kilometers (3,700,000 sq mi), it is the third- or fourth-largest country by total area, depending on the source consulted. China also has the most neighbor countries in the world. Governed by the Communist Party of China, it exercises jurisdiction over 22 provinces, five autonomous regions, four direct-controlled municipalities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing), and the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau.

Dongchang road ferryThis is such a cheap and easy way to cross the river and even though you only have windows, the views are really great. Note that there are limited seats and you may need to wait a while for the Ferry to complete its roundabout trip

Our hotel is booked in Tsim Sha Tsui HK and Cotai Water Jet HK China Ferry Terminal is just 10 mins away. Our departure to Macau is at 12:15, we left our hotel at 11:45, arrived at the terminal at 12:00 and we were boarding before 12:15. The online reservation I did, the less lines in immigration, custom less scanning is very convenient. No stress and we even maximized the morning in HK. Their fleet is designed by Austal shipyard of Australia. I recommend this ferry service and terminal if your hotel is near the area because it is less crowded than the other terminal - HK Macau Ferry terminal which is farther than Tsim Sha Tsui. The ride took approximately 1 hour an d very comfortable. We arrived at Macau's Taipa Ferry terminal. Special disability access is also provided for those in need and the terminal is very clean, less crowded and spacious. The regular ticket costs us around HKD 171 per person. So, if you plan to go to Macau and stay around Tsim Sha Tsui then this is what you need.

First Ferry’s five main routes record a daily traffic footfall up to 38,000 passengers (as of 30 June, 2013)

A comfortable return trip to Mui Wo from Central on the ordinary (slow) ferry. We travelled deluxe class, which offers airconditioned comfort away from the crowds. Well worth the extra few dollars to upgrade the seats from those downstairs.

TurboJet

Reviewed By LarryL764 - Lanaken, Belgium

We used the Turbojet services roundtrip between Hong Kong and Macau - excellent service and a fun and exciting experience. Both ways the trips were on time and comfortable with very nice service in the terminals and onboard. We used Super Class which provided more comfortable seating (and it was not full so room to spread out) and food service - we were more than satisfied. Premier Grand Class is available on some departures but probably not worth the money for the hour journey. A jetfoil ride is an essential part of a day trip to Macau from Hong Kong! Note that complimentary shuttle buses are available to all passengers to/from the Macau ferry terminal to all major hotel-casinos.
