According to the listing, the morning starts with a horse ride at a ranch. You then see the outside of the basilica, stop at the market for lunch and visit a traditional tobacco factory. The tour closes with a short photo stop at Macao Beach.
A town day, not a beach day
This is an outing about architecture, markets and crafts. The beach appears only as a brief stop, so it does not suit anyone who wants to swim. For coffee and cacao with more beach time, look at the Macao excursion.
