Find a Travel Companion
in Macau
Where Portuguese cobblestones meet neon casino lights, and the world's best egg tart is never more than five minutes away.
Travel better in Macau with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Macau spends about ~$55–85 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Macau.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Macau (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style
Roammate filters by travel pace, budget range, and interests, so you connect with someone genuinely compatible, not just whoever's in the same hostel dorm.
Meeting someone new in Macau
Agreeing to travel with someone you met online is a real decision. Here is what sits between matching and meeting.
Verified profiles
Travellers can verify their identity with a government-ID and liveness check, and verified accounts carry a badge you can filter on.
Chat before you commit
Message in the app and get a sense of someone first. Nothing obliges you to share contact details, or to meet at all.
Report and block
If someone makes you uncomfortable, report or block them at any point, before or after you have arranged anything.
Emergency SOS
Add emergency contacts before you travel. If something goes wrong in Macau, raise an alert to them from inside the app.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Casino Etiquette
Casinos are free to enter (18+ with ID). No photography on the gaming floor. Minimum bets start from MOP$100–300 at table games. If you gamble, set a strict budget. The house always wins long term.
Temple Manners
Remove hats at temples. Don't step on door thresholds, step over them. Incense is often free to light. Walk clockwise around temple halls. Photography is usually fine outside prayer areas.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Macau travel guide.
