Venetian is like a death star sucking gamblers from all the other casinos to their rather ulu location due to its novelty. The only way to get to the old city is either using expensive taxis or Venetian complimentary bus service to downtown Sands or the old ferry terminal. But downtown is where the Macanese eat so prices are not higher than HK$30. Still high by Singapore standards but cheaper than Hong Kong or Venetian. BTW, make sure you ask for change in HK$. Macau dollars can only be used in Macau plus lower exchange rate.
Old Stanley Ho knows the value of his in-house street walkers. There are so many that they work on shifts. You'll find different girls working at different times. Once a while AV conduct raids complete with "FBI" style vests. The girls are soon released at the police station.
