The Spring Festival Golden Week is about to unfold between 31 January and 6 February 2022. Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO) has been carrying out a variety of preparations to welcome visitors and publicize information about pandemic prevention via various channels to ensure safe and quality travel. The Office will hold Chinese New Year festivities in strict compliance with the guidelines on pandemic prevention.
Promote pandemic prevention info in line with the latest guidelines
MGTO leverages different channels to inform visitors comprehensively about pandemic prevention, including posting pandemic prevention guidelines on its website, displaying pandemic prevention info at MGTO’s Tourist Information counters at various ports of entry, while calling for compliance with pandemic prevention measures on its official accounts on WeChat and Weibo. The Office also reminds travel industry operators to carry out pandemic preventive measures in accordance with related advices and guidelines issued by Health Bureau against COVID-19. Hotels and tourism businesses also continue to help spread messages about pandemic prevention among visitors.
In accord with Health Bureau’s requirement of venue code posting, MGTO has informed the licensed establishments concerned under its supervision and assisted with issuance of venue codes for them. The establishments, including hotel establishments, restaurants, simple catering establishments, bars, nightclubs, saunas and massage parlours, health clubs and karaoke lounges, are required to post venue codes and actively remind individuals upon admission to scan the venue codes through their mobile app of Macao Health Code for itinerary record. Venue codes are also posted at MGTO’s venues for public reception including the Macao Grand Prix Museum and Ritz Building.
Rigorous patrols
During the Spring Festival Golden Week, the Office will conduct patrols at various tourist spots, ports of entry and districts, besides overseeing measures taken by hotels and other licensed establishments under MGTO’s supervision against the pandemic, with MGTO inspectors standing by round-the-clock. Tourist Information counters tend to visitors’ enquiries, whereas MGTO’s Tourism Hotline (853) 2833 3000 maintains its 24-hour operator service.
