Over 7 million tourists can’t get enough of Macau

Macau is winning over its guests, and leaving them wanting more. GGRAsia is reporting Macau’s Statistics and Census Service has released a report indicating that approximately 7.53 million visitors to the gambling hub in 2018 were repeat visitors in the calendar year.

Overall, Macau recorded 32.2 million tourist arrivals for the first 11 months of 2018. Of that number, only 10.2 million visited once and felt it was enough, with the majority of the entries coming from repeat tourists. In other words, those who enjoy Macau like it a lot.

Of the 7.53 million unique repeat visitors, approximately 62 percent visited the city as many as three times in that time period.

Leonardo Dioko, director of Macau’s IFT Tourism Research Centre, noted that the majority of these repeat visitors were from Mainland China, the Unites States, and other nearby countries. The 5.4 million repeat visitors from neighboring Mainland China could be thanked in part to the new Hong Kong-Zuhai-Macau bridge.
