A private car is the door-to-door way from Grand Hyatt Hong Kong to Macau: one seven-seat car collects you on the Harbour Road driveway, crosses the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macao Bridge and sets you down at your Macau address. The catch of this address is that no ferry sails to Macau from Wan Chai — every crossing plan starts with a ride somewhere else.
- Door-to-door car from Harbour Road to your Macau address over the bridge.
- Nearest published reference fare: Central to HZMB Macau Port, daytime HK$2,068 whole car.
- No Macau ferry from Wan Chai — the two Macau terminals are in Tsim Sha Tsui and Sheung Wan.
- The Wan Chai Star Ferry crosses to Tsim Sha Tsui only, but that pier is a short walk west from China Ferry Terminal.
- Gold Bus is HK$65/70 per person but port to port only.
Where the Grand Hyatt sits — and what that decides
Grand Hyatt Hong Kong occupies the waterfront at 1 Harbour Road, Wan Chai North, beside the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Three facts about this spot shape the trip to Macau.
First, there is no ferry terminal to Macau in Wan Chai. The Macau sailings leave from China Ferry Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui and Shun Tak Centre in Sheung Wan, and both need a ride from here. Second, the Wan Chai Star Ferry pier is on the hotel's doorstep, but it crosses Victoria Harbour to Tsim Sha Tsui only — useful, because from that Kowloon pier it is a short walk west along the waterfront to China Ferry Terminal, the Kowloon Macau terminal. Third, the bridge to Macau starts at a checkpoint near the airport on Lantau Island, so the car route crosses the harbour by road before the crossing.

A private car over the bridge
The car is the only option from this address that moves you and your bags together from the hotel door to a Macau address — and here it matters more than usual, because every ferry plan begins with a cross-harbour or cross-district ride. Mayline Travel Services (美佳旅遊) runs the route with seven-seat luxury MPVs, mainly Toyota Alphard, for up to 6 passengers with 3 large suitcases or 6 small bags. Child seats are free; write the number and ages of the children in the booking notes and the seats are fitted before pick-up.
The booking page shows a one-way reference fare for 2026 of HK$2,068 daytime for Central to HZMB Macau Port as the nearest published example — for 2 passengers on a non-holiday date with no extra stops or meet-and-greet. A trip from the hotel's exact door to a Macau hotel is priced on your route and time; your instant quote is final. The fare is locked when you book and never rises for traffic, fuel or exchange rates, and tolls, tunnel charges and border fees are inside it.
A seamless transfer option changes cars once at a designated transfer point and costs about HK$300 less; both choices appear side by side in your quote. Night pick-ups between 23:00 and 07:00 add HK$100–400 on city routes like this (HK$400 applies on Hong Kong Airport ⇄ Macau). Meet-and-greet with a name board is an optional HK$200 add-on.
Book 3 or more days ahead and the car is guaranteed. Inside 3 days it is usually confirmed within about 5 minutes of payment, or you get a full refund. Cancel 6 hours or more before pick-up for a 95% refund; 3–6 hours is 50%; under 3 hours or after the driver sets off, no refund. If Mayline cannot supply a car, the refund is full.
China Ferry Terminal: the Kowloon sailing
China Ferry Terminal occupies China Hong Kong City at 33 Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui — departures from the 1/F hall, arrivals from the 2/F, per TurboJET's terminal page. The Kowloon to Macau Taipa route resumed on 1 December 2023 and currently runs two round trips a day: Kowloon to Taipa at 09:15 and 15:00, Taipa to Kowloon at 13:15 and 17:00 (TurboJET's announcement, checked 17 October 2026).
From the Grand Hyatt the honest light-luggage route is the Star Ferry from the Wan Chai pier to Tsim Sha Tsui, then a walk west along the harbourfront to the terminal. It works with a cabin bag and stops working with four suitcases. With luggage, a taxi across the Cross-Harbour Tunnel is the straightforward way. Two sailings a day is the hard limit either way, and a day trip has to catch the 13:15 or 17:00 back. In Macau, Taipa Ferry Terminal connects to the Macau Light Rapid Transit at its own stop (Exit A), with city buses outside — then a taxi or hotel shuttle for the last leg to the Cotai strip or the peninsula.
Sheung Wan: the frequent sailings
If the two Kowloon sailings do not fit your day, the frequent ones leave from the Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal at Shun Tak Centre, 200 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan. TurboJET sails Sheung Wan to Macau Outer Harbour roughly hourly through the day with night sailings to 23:00 (schedule effective 16 October 2026), and serves Taipa at 10:30, 11:30 and 15:00 plus a 19:00 night sailing. Cotai Water Jet sails Sheung Wan to Taipa through the day until 23:59. A standard weekday Taipa fare starts at HK$192 (from the operators' fare pages, sourced on 8 October 2026); premium classes and weekend or night sailings cost more.
From Wan Chai North, Shun Tak Centre is a few Island Line stops west from Wan Chai station — Shun Tak Centre connects directly to Sheung Wan station, Exit D — or a taxi along Gloucester Road and Connaught Road with luggage.
The HZMB shuttle bus (Gold Bus)
The HZMB shuttle crosses the bridge between HZMB Hong Kong Port and Macau Port for HK$65 daytime or HK$70 night per person, 24 hours a day, according to the Transport Department and Macau DSAT pages. The bus runs port to port only: HZMB Hong Kong Port sits near the airport on Lantau Island, so you first ride out to the port, get off at both checkpoints, and on the Macau side still need a taxi or hotel shuttle to your address.
For one traveller with a cabin bag it is the cheapest full crossing in the market. For a family with suitcases it stacks at least two changes on each side.
Pick-up at the Grand Hyatt
The hotel's entrance sits on the Harbour Road driveway at the water's edge, below the main podium. The exact meeting point for a car should be confirmed with the hotel's door team or written into your booking notes; never assume a bay without asking the property. If anyone in your party needs step-free boarding or extra time, say so in the booking notes so the driver plans the approach. Your driver's name, phone number and number plate appear on the My order page no later than 1 hour before pick-up, and one chat thread covers you, customer service and the driver in your own language.
Border and passport rules for Macau
Macau's Public Security Police Force runs immigration at HZMB Macao Port. For a private-car arrival the rules are concrete:
- Visa-free passport holders may stay in the car at HZMB Macao Port with a valid passport; documents are handed to the officers.
- Anyone needing a Macau visa or Entry Permit clears at the arrival hall or the on-board passenger inspection hall, then rejoins the same car.
- Passports of Bangladesh, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Vietnam holders need a Macau visa arranged in advance — applied since 1 July 2010.
- Your passport must be valid for at least 90 days beyond your intended stay in Macau.
- Leaving Hong Kong at HZMB Hong Kong Port, and any return from Macau, works differently: officers decide on the day whether passengers step out of the car. No operator can promise you never leave the car.
On the ferry routes, immigration happens inside each terminal in both directions — every traveller needs a passport, children included.
What the journey costs
