Quick question for the Hong Kong & Macau regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there last year and had a great time but I've heard things are quieter than usual.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers
Budget trip to Hong Kong & Macau

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.
