AJ Hackett

Macau Tower, at 338m, is the 10th-tallest freestanding structure in the world; it stands on the narrow isthmus of land southeast of Avenida da República. The tower houses observation decks on the 58th and 61st floors, and restaurants and bars such as the revolving 360° Café on the 60th floor, and the 180° Lounge one floor below it. If none of this takes your fancy, you might be interested in the activities of the New Zealand–based extreme-sports company AJ Hackett , which organises all kinds of adventure climbs up and around the tower. The intrepid will go for the Mast Climb (MOP$1688), in which you go up and down the mast’s 100m of vertical ladders to the top in two hours. Skywalk X (MOP$588) is a rail-less walk around the outer rim, some 233m high, on the 61st floor. Bungy (MOP$1488) is the world’s highest free fall, from a 233m-high platform. Sky Jump (MOP$888) or Tandem Sky Jump (MOP$1688 per two people) are slower versions of Bungy.
