Working with Macanese agencies

How Explera supports the Macau trade.

For Macanese travellers, Japan is a short-break staple, with demand spiking around school holidays, Lunar New Year and regional long-weekend clusters. A named account manager quotes in your working currency and returns FIT pricing within 24 hours.

You get net rates quoted in your currency, a single point of contact, and proposals you can forward to clients under your own brand. Deposit and final-payment schedules are sized to your lead times, with secure card and bank-transfer settlement.

On the ground in Japan, Macanese guests are met by English-speaking staff, with Mandarin, Japanese and Korean guides assigned wherever the file calls for them. Everything is operated in-house — guides, vehicles and coordinators — so one accountable team owns the experience.
