"We are never satisfied until you come back and travel with us again" - Wendy Wu, Founder & Chairwoman

At Wendy Wu Tours, we want to know what you think about the service you receive when you book with us and what you thought about your tour itself. It's this vital information that helps us to improve in the future.

With this in mind, we have teamed up with independent review company feefo. Once you have made a booking or returned from one of our tours, you'll receive an email from feefo asking you to rate your experience with us.

We then display these reviews right here, completely untouched by us, so you can trust them 100%.

We were humbled to receive so much positive feedback from clients affected by the onset of the Coronavirus crisis. We hope the positive experience of customers, who still managed to enjoy their tours even as the pandemic hit, shows how wonderful your experience will be once we all get travelling again.



We also have more fantastic reviews from around the globe on TripAdvisor, including many 5 star!

Majestic Yangtze

This was our first tour and we were extremely impressed by the organisation and the standards. The size of our group (19) was not overwhelming and allowed us to get to know our fellow travellers well. Our guide Jason was absolutely outstanding at his job. He was caring and knowledgeable with a good sense of humour, which added to the experience.

All the people we met were very friendly, great variety of landscapes. Some of the meals took a long time which made some of the days very long, not arriving at the hotel till after 9.00. The food in general was too much.

Moroccan Odyssey

Our Tour: Good
The trip was very enjoyable in many ways and covered most of the important sites in Morocco, although I personally would have preferred a little more time in the archaeological sites and would have benefited from visiting an archaeological museum in Rabat. The main problem was that almost every member of our group fell ill with a stomach complaint at some point or other, despite taking precautions such as not drinking the water or using it for teeth cleaning, not eating salads and trying to eat only cooked food. Having said this, the buffet food that we were offered was often only lukewarm and therefore may have been a source of diarrhea-inducing bugs. Since we had been told not to eat salad, it seemed perverse that we were often offered salad as a first course for any of our included meals. The penultimate hotel in Essaouira was not up to standard and we were grateful that the company moved us to somewhere better, but unfortunately as this was done at the last minute we were lodged a long way outside the resort. The bus driver was excellent; our guide was very good and taught us a great deal about Moroccan culture. The only problem was that his English was not always accurate or even comprehensible, although this didn't matter to me and my friend as we speak French.
Most members of the group enjoyed themselves and the many experiences the trip offered, but thought that this trip, only in its second year, could benefit from some refinement and the health problems we had really detracted from our enjoyment.

Wonderful jam packed tour. Key sites. From mountain to ocean to city. Wonderful guides that really cared about us making the most of the experience. Wide range of local dishes. Some very nice hotels with onsens so we were in comfort. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to get the broadest experience. The tea ceremony and paper making were excellent too.

China by Rail

An amazing holiday that feasts your eyes (Haung Pao river tour at night), nourishes your soul (Guilin River Tour) and exercise your legs (walking the Great Wall), these are among the many highlights of the tour. This tour covers many of the must-see tourist attractions of China and then some, at a price that offers astonishing value. The standard of hotels and meals are (with exception of Huangshan and YangShou), above expectation. The high speed rails journeys are the ideal way to cover long distances in this great country. Our national tour guide George skillfully sherperds us through vast railway stations, security checks and e-ticket inspections; depicts the development of modern China engagingly and addresses sensitive questions with diplomacy, subtlety - the way of tai chi. I would have no hesitation to book another Wenfy Wu tour if it was led by George! May be a trip along the silk route?

We saw a lot of the country, with beautiful scenery especially in the alps. The autumn colours were spectacular. This necessitated some very long coach journeys.
The hotels were mostly very good except for the one in Kanazawa which was an absolute dive. It was dark and had no natural light. Our room was very small and the one window was sealed and frosted, so no light or air came in. Breakfast was presented cold in a box, and was largely inedible.
The food was mostly repetitive, tasteless and either chewy or slimey. As vegetarians we had tofu with boiled cabbage and mushrooms twice a day for virtually every meal.
The guide was highly organised and pleasant but his English was difficult to follow. Information was often read to us in a very stilted manner. Key information had to be picked out of a jumble of words.
There was far too much time allocated to shopping!
The gardens we saw were disappointing.
I don’t think the Wendy Wu have vetted the tour properly or listened to feedback.

An excellent trip made special by our national tour leader Addison, and his great work with the local guides. The pace was good and everything was handled in a professional and caring way. Very enjoyable.

Secrets of Saudi Arabia

Our Tour: average
The holiday attempted to cram too much into too short a time frame. Often, we were travelling in the dark after nightfall, so couldn't see the scenery, and arrived at our hotel very late, going straight in to dinner (sometimes at about 10. p.m.) with no chance to change, or wash and brush up. Then off again first thing in the morning. I didn't manage to get a good night's 8 hour sleep the whole time I was there.

On the plus side, the second part of the holiday had some impressive sights - the Nabatean tombs, the rock art, and old Jeddah - and at least Wendy Wu got me to Saudi Arabia - other tour companies have failed - so I fulfilled a long ambition.

This was the first time that we took a group tour. Japan Uncovered met our expectations in every way with the locations and sights visited. It was convenient having all our meals included in the tour and we enjoyed the variety of meals that we received. Though we thought we might have some very early starts or late finishes to our day, we had just one earlier start of 07:30. Our guide, Kiki, was terrific. She was always ready to answer questions and helped to ensure our group enjoyed the tour and maximize how we spent our free time. The group size was 28 but it never felt large.

Amazing trip with lots to see and do. To fit so much in requires quite a lot of bus and train trips but we got to see many sides of Japan from large famous cities to smaller towns and activities. Hiroshima was very moving. Paper making was great fun too. Mount Fuji showed itself on both days we were in the area. You get time to shop in Tokyo and on the way. Go up every tall building you can. We did 2 in Osaka and the very high Skytree in Tokyo. We had a 3 night stopover in Hong Kong which was great as well. As on option if ending in Tokyo maybe stay a few more nights as there was a lot more to see than we could manage in 3 nights. The group we were with had a great time together. Highly recommended.
