Macau plans November return for mainland Chinese tour groups

MACAU aims to open to mainland Chinese tour groups in November for the first time in almost 3 years, the city’s chief executive, Ho Iat Seng, said on Saturday (Sep 24).

The gambling hub has implemented stringent pandemic restrictions, with tight border controls in place since 2020 having a major impact on its casino industry.

Mainland tour groups are a key source of visitors for the city’s casinos. REUTERS
