Absolutely fantastic, cram packed tour with so may contrasting places and experiences. Walking along the Great Walk and strolling round mountain tops where we stood above the clouds and looked down at the brown Yangtze where it met with its green tributaries. The deep crevices of the rift valley with its shafts of daylight poking through. We went under overhanging boulders and deep dark gorges. Such contrasting features.

We experienced the hustle and bustle of huge cities like Beijing and Shanghai and smaller towns like Guilin with a slower pace. We met Mr. Wong the fisherman, with his cormorants and asked him about his life, a way of life that's dying out as youngsters don't want to fish. They'd rather have city jobs.

I loved the .people's parks and the tea rooms with beautiful traditional music playing in one area and live singers backed by musicians in another part. Whilst visiting a rural settings just outside Guilin with its serene, tranquil, stunning scenery, we stumbled on a village wedding and were greeted with sweeties and peanuts as soon as we were spotted.

I will never forget the magnificent sight of the Terra-cotta army in their original burial sites and close encounters with a few of the warriors preserved in glass cases for closer inspection. And of course watching those lazy laid back pandas strolling around their grounds and leisurely climbing trees.

We went to four shows all very diverse and highly entertaining from the unique singing of the Beijing Opera, to the spectacular water show on the lake and then the jaw dropping acrobats and bikers in Shanghai.

Out on the streets and particularly in historic places, were lots of young ladies wearing stunning , traditional very evocative of a traditional Chinese culture. They were very beautiful.

There was so much more to see but I've already written more than I probably should.

Our tour guide, Alice was very professional with all the qualities necessary to keep us well fed, entertained, safe and well informed. She, along with Wendy Wu made this a trip of a life time. I loved every cram packed minute and crave those delicious banquet meals.

This is a superb tour for anyone looking to learn about the history and culture of China. There are numerous highlights but the Great Wall and the Hanging Temple were particular standout moments. It is a packed itinerary and perhaps one or two half days to self-explore a city/town or enjoy the hotel facilities would have enhanced the tour. All the hotels were of a very good standard apart from the one in Luoyang where the facilities and breakfast were poor. On the whole the food was enjoyable with a few exceptional meals and only one or two below average. More often than not there was too much food at each sitting and it seemed a great shame that it was going to waste. The tour organisation was excellent throughout the journey though perhaps we were fortunate there were only 19 in the group as I think any more may have led to more delays and chaos. All the regional tour guides were knowledgeable and helpful giving an insight into modern day China. In addition our national guide George was exceptional looking after our group as though we were his own family. Overall I would highly recommend this tour.

This was an excellent tour of China. We saw so much and would love to go back one day. Our tour guide Brittany could not have been better she was a credit to Wendy Wu and China.

Our guide Jay on the Wonders of China tour -19th September to 5th October 2025- was fantastic,.He could not have been more attentive and any questions or issues were addressed without question. From the start of the trip to the end was seamless. I would fully recommend this trip to anyone and if they were lucky enough to have Jay as a Tour guide then that would be a bonus !!!

An excellent trip to China, well organised, excellent itinerary and top class guides.
Accommodation was well.selected, food was great, and the balance of trips was spot on.

Amazing, especially if you’re looking to go beyond the usual sites, go deeper into the culture and history. Well organised and focused, with high quality accommodation and food. Definitely recommend!

The inclusive itinerary is by far great value for money. The person who makes this tour is the guide known as Brittany. She worked 24/7 to ensure everyone was safe and looked after. Detailed information for each person or couple even down to the gates to check in for return flight home. I can not recommend this tour or this guide highly enough. Booking in UK is flexible with different airlines and airports. 11/10

The Wendy Wu, China by Land, section with Ken, their guide was exceptional in all aspects. We would rather not have done the Japan by Sea section. It was a very big ship catering for the Asian market and we considered that both the food and entertainment was no very good. The gripe for us is that the ships organized tours were a bad joke. Very expensive to see one or two temples and then left to sped the rest of the time in shopping areas. We got no feel for the real Japan and based on this experience alone, we would not go back there.

Excellent Tour, varied, educational, fast paced. An introduction to a great country which changed attitudes. Our Tour Guide Mark was brilliant; nothing was too much trouble for him. Everything ran efficiently. The eating places were very good. The hotels were, in the main, excellent. A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Absolutely amazing holiday. Wendy Wu takes great care of you from start to finish with everything included and a guide who stays with you on the whole trip. We started at Shanghai and then on to Guilin and Yangshuo which for me were the highlights of the tour. Then on to Xian and finishing up at Beijing. There were optional extras available and everywhere we went the food was excellent. I felt we did all the major sights and learned so much about the culture and life in China.

We had a shaky start to the tour where our friends who we were travelling with were in a different group to ours. We had been told by the company we would be in the same group as there was only one Grand Tour. I am pleased to say this was resolved quickly and we were able to enjoy the tour together.
The tour included so many incredible sights and we experienced different modes of transport. It was almost too much to take in and was a busy time. Our tour leader Jessie and the local guides did a wonderful job at keeping us together and dealing with any problems along the way. By the end of the trip we felt like family.
The hotel accommodation for the most part was good and the food gave us a good taste of Chinese food and different tastes in different areas. We enjoyed the round tables and turntables and made some good friends around it.
We feel we have had a great taster of China but know there are still many more things to see in China.

An excellent guided holiday covering the favourite tourist spots in three weeks. Great food, sights and good English speaking national and local guides. Well organised, with good customer support, and flexibility for flights, and extras like extensions.

It was rather hot and humid in September; probably mid October would be better. Should also be less crowded then. Physically not that demanding except walking up to the Great Wall with steep steps and some patches without handrails.

An excellent holiday to see as many places as possible in a given time without all the hassle of organising it.

Absolute brilliant holiday tour of China with Wendy wu , our guide Jessie was great with our every need and very patient as we were party of 28 . The timing were so perfected , I can honestly say we had the best time ever on holiday and I throughly recommend people go to China, it’s a wonderful country, the people are very welcoming and thanks to Wendy wu tour we got to experience the real China from small city to large city.
Thank you Jessie and our local guides throughout our 26days they made us feel at home. Jessie’s family.
