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

Very competent and helpful staff. Good value flight upgrades offered and easy and quick to book including flight seats. As a previous customer we had a great experience touring China and our national tour guide was exceptional. Lots of good authentic local food in local restaurants. Great company for escorted tours particularly China and far east.

I’ve just taken advantage of the current discounts being offered. Actually booked two exciting trips for this year. As usual your customer service teams are excellent, very polite and efficient. I know that the actual tours will be as good.

Where do you start with a review of a 21 day holiday? Overall, it was good, but there are things to be aware of when booking.
Wendy Wu is positioned as at the higher end of group tours in Asia but some of the hotels were below the standard I would have expected. For instance, the Lotus Blanc rooms in Siem Reap were damp, mosquito infested and the aircon control unit didn't work. In addition, room service although offered, was non existent. Other hotels were ok, but not really of a high standard.
Food was included for all meals but the timings were sometimes odd. For example, in Haling bay, we had breakfast at 7, went on a quick excursion and then had a full brunch offered at 9.30 - just so that we could get to an airport transfer. It would have been better to have been given a voucher for food and drink at the airport. Another example was the house vitit in Hue with a "snack" that turned out to be a fantastic meal, only to be immediately followed by lunch. Often, late lunches were followed by early dinners which seemed a little unreasonable. Also in regard to food, the constant set menus got so samey and boring, we opted to miss a few. A little creativity around the set menus would have made the food a much more interesting part of the tour. I have a lot more to say but have limited space :-(

I recently completed a wonderful group tour of Vietnam with Wendy Wu Tours, which I booked direct. The package was all-inclusive, covering all flights, accommodation, transfers, sightseeing, and meals. It was incredibly convenient, as I only had to manage my own travel to and from my local airport and drinks.

Wendy and our national tour guide, Duc, managed every detail perfectly to ensure the trip was memorable and that we experienced the best of Vietnam. This was my second trip with this company, having previously traveled with them to China over ten years ago.

I highly recommend Wendy Wu Tours for anyone looking for a well-organised travel experience.

I contacted Wendy Wu Tours on 30/01/26 to enquire about information on maybe booking a holiday? Before i knew what was happening, the holiday was booked & paid in full!!! Flights, transfers, hotels, meals and visa all included!!! It may well be in the small print somewhere ~ but no mention that i couldn’t cancel without incurring a 30% cancellation fee the moment my call ended 🤬🤬. I received an email on 02/02/26 informing me that i need to sort my own visa!!!!!! I rang Wendy Wu tours asking for help with regards to the visa (as i don’t have access to a computer and printer) and the response from Lucy “well if you want to cancel it is in the small print in the brochure”!!!!!!!
So three days after booking i am now told that i could cancel and lose 30% of my money paid ~ just 3 days later and the ever so sympathetic (NOT!!!!!), Lucy can only tell me it’s “in the small print”!!!! After reading the letter again; Dear “name” thanks for booking, “WE WILL BE WITH YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY”!!!! I am certainly not happy 😡 with this behaviour and had i known beforehand about their behaviour, i definitely wouldn’t have booked a holiday through this company!!!!!!! Sorting out my visa application is a nightmare, made worse by my lack of a computer and my lack of confidence, but knowing that they are there “every step of the way” ~ that’s a joke, i could end up being out of pocket by hundreds and hundreds of pounds 🤬😡🤬😡

Wendy Wu Tours are the best company that I have ever travelled with. They take care of everything so that you can fully immerse yourself in the wonderful experience of travel to many destinations that they cover. Cannot fault them and would find it hard to go with any other company. Excellent service from start to finish.

great attention to detail in finding the tour which included the greatest number of the places my Japanese friend had recommended I visit and then real effort to find the best possible deal on business class flights. I want to China with Wendy Wu tours last year which was Superbad I have every confidence this year's trip to Japan will be up to the same very high standard

I have traveled with Wendy Wu several times and their staff have always been very helpful, accommodating, efficient and cheerful
I keep going back to them because their tours are well planned, and the itinerary is just what I am after - their tour managers and local tour guides have not been bettered by other companies

On the whole this was an amazing trip, marred but a disappointing Christmas Day. What was supposed to be a trip highlight turned out to be a fly-ridden starter, followed by a cold roast dinner and an OK dessert. All served next to the toilet! There were tables available in the restaurant that would have accommodated us. Looking at the reviews, it looks like the Vineyard only puts tours by the smelly toilets!

Our Response

Thank you for your feedback.

We are very pleased to hear that, overall, your trip was amazing. We are, however, sorry to learn that the Christmas Day meal did not meet expectations, particularly regarding the location and quality of the food. Your comments are important, and we will ensure they are passed on to the relevant partners so improvements can be made for future guests. We trust that the rest of your holiday with Wendy Wu Tours remained enjoyable and memorable.

Kind regards,

Overall this was enjoyable holiday but not worth the price paid. It was an all inclusive holiday which included hotels, excursions, travel and food (3 meals a day).

Started off in Cambodia which was lovely. The tour guide and bus driver were great, very attentive, knowledgeable and helpful. Excursions such as Angkor Wat were amazing. Food was of a good standard as were the facilities we were taken to during our trips and the hotel was clean and the service was very good.

Travel in between places was mostly by coach which was comfortable enough and air conditioned. There were supposed to be more flights but for some reason only 1 internal flight was taken.

Mekong River cruise was good overall although probably not worth paying extra for the upper deck. Excursions and local tour guide were very good.

Vietnam was OK although the tour guide wasn't as attentive, helpful and didn't keep the group together on tours and seemed to care more about moving on when other groups were waiting for each point of interest rather then providing our group with a decent amount of info.
Hotels in Vietnam were satisfactory on the whole except for Rice Fields which was very poor to say the least. Dirty, damp, bug ridden, had no hot water and not well maintained. Food and service was awful and certainly not the minimum 4 star accommodation we'd paid for. I had complained immediately to Wendy Wu but heard nothing until I followed it up twice when I returned home. We received a credit towards our next holiday which was poor compensation or rather no compensation unless we take another holiday with WW! I was incorrectly lead to believe Wendy Wu had very good customer service.

Food provided throughout the holiday was of a good quality but lunch and dinners were very samey and got very boring. There was little opportunity to choose from a menu other than on 1 occasion and thankfully on the last day when only breakfast was included.

There was limited free time, so shopping had to be squeezed in. Cambodia was very good value for money in comparison to Vietnam who add a 'tourist' tax on everything and most goods are also imported from China.

Many thanks for your time on the telephone yesterday and allowing me to address your feedback. I am delighted we have resolved matters to your satisfaction and do let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Kind regards, Jimmy McLean, Customer Service Manager
