Phenomenal tour - saw all the major sites that you'd expect when visiting China for the 1st time. The tours were well organised and the guides were great. The hotels were generally ok, although not great - somewhat tired and out in the suburbs.

We both had an excellent experience and would definitely recommend Wendy wu tours

I have recently returned from a Wendy Wu Wonders of China Tour (10-24 Oct) and wish to place on record how much I enjoyed the tour. That enjoyment stemmed not only from the comprehensive Itinerary and places visited but also to the highly knowledgeable, hard working, dedicated and caring Tour Guide 'Betty' (an English name given to herself to make it easier for us to address her). She spoke excellent English and led the tour with a smile and sense of humour but always ensured the group knew exactly where to be and at what time whilst giving us detailed information about the place(s) we were visiting and their history and heritage which, of course, enabled us to more fully understand the purposes of what we saw, the origins of what we saw and so much more. I cannot speak highly enough of this lady and if I were to visit China again, I would hope that 'Betty' would be my guide again.

The meals and wide range of Chinese cuisine we experienced were also first class with all tastes catered for.

Can I also add that the information and advice provided pre-tour by Wendy Wu Tours was excellent and ensured that I was fully prepared for this tour and helped ensure my enjoyment and fulfillment whilst on this tour. Thank you.

This is the second time we have travelled with Wendy Wu Tours and cannot fault them in any way whatsoever and will definitely be travelling with them again in the future. The tour was extremely well organised from start to finish and our guide was with us all the way and really helped to make the holiday perfect. I had a dietary requirement and I was catered for on every occasion above and beyond. The tour takes in all the essence of Japan, its lifestyle and culture. Absolutely perfect in every way.

This was my first holiday with Wendy Wu tours and it was brilliant. The tour guide was absolutely superb and everything ran like clockwork.

5 star tour leader, Luis- Always looking out for group members. Very well organized.
5 star local tour guide, Jackie. Friendly, excellent communication. Sad to see him finish.
4 star other local guides - too much talking and information which will not be remembered, and English not always up to 5 star level.
5 star and wonderful food.- No need to do Pizza Hut lunch or Radisson Hotel steak and chips. Neither up to expected standard. We loved Chinese food.
Cut out the 3 days across Desert. Fly Turpan to Kashgar. What we saw in these 3 days was not interesting enough to warrant the long bus rides.
Three lots of Budhist caves on the tour was overkill. especially the one in Kuqa.
Excellent consideration of toilet stops on long bus rides with good facilities.
Needs a day, mid tour, with no activity in a city where the hotel is close to main shops. End of day after dinner and a long day was insufficient opportunity to fulfill any shopping desires, especially non tourist souvenir shopping. Came home having not been able to buy anything on my shopping list.
Hotels were all excellent and where small fridge (for medication storage) was not in the room, Luis made suitable arrangements.
Almost all the group had been to China before. Guides need to consider this when talking non stop. WWT needs to consider this choosing sightseeing in Beijing and Shanghai. Pre tour questionnaire would enable WWT to plan different sights new to many of the group. Nearly all the group had already been to Beijing.
Beijing on Golden week, weekend was a disaster. Both days were total repeats for me and others and not enjoyed. The crowds were a nightmare. Millions locals sightseeing and enjoying the holiday weekend.
ESim - Recommendations for ESim not to include Airalo. No connection for 2 of us while in Gusan province. Big disappointment. Do not recommend this ESim.
I loved that everything was taken care of and led by a really superb, very intelligent and caring Tour Leader, Luis. Would book with Wendy Wu Tours again.
Thank you. Edreen

Tour was excellent.
Made SPECIAL by our tour guide Aimee.
A warm, kind and bubbly personality.
Most definitely an asset to the organisation.
A relatively small group, 17 people.
All well traveled.
Highlights, too many to mentioned.
Tibet stood out for me.
I have to state clearly that all the days were absolutely noteworthy.
Will recommend Wendy Wu Tours to anybody interested.
I am interested in a combined Sth Korea tour or cruise.
Also, I am interested in Sri Lanka and Maldives combined tour or cruise.
Not sure whether your company Wendy Wu does Sth America.
My rating would be higher than 80%.

With kind regards,

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.

I would highly recommend Wendy Wu tours , they are very well organised . The tour of Japan was excellent with the guide being very well informed and she went the extra mile , providing us with her favourite snacks to try , cooling wipes and giving us a lot of information about Japanese culture and history .

Our first escorted tour and probably the best holiday we had! From being greeted off our delayed flight in Osaka with a big smile from our Wendy Wu greeter, ensured we were on our way to our hotel. A big smile and greeting from our guide, Taichi Imamura at the hotel although late, made us feel "at home" and he ensured that we had our bentobox dinner.
Words cannot describe how Taichi made sure that everyone knew what was happening at each place we stopped at, where the best rest rooms were, places to pick up snacks. Even taking photos for everyone with their cameras and phones to ensure all memories were saved of the magnificent sights we saw. All the coach drivers were fantastic throughout the tour, hotels were very good and generally spacious and the places we were taken to for lunch and dinner had excellent facilities and good quality food. I can safely say that all the people on the tour, which comprised Australians, New Zealanders, Tasmanians and English, from the very first evening to the last all got on and mixed amongst each other and some great fun times were had by all.
We even found time to locate a few "Irish hubs"(pub) on the evenings and had some great laughs with Brian and Brenda from New Zealand, Tom and Kim and Stella/Julia in them. There were so many places we saw including Mount Fuji, Hiroshima dome and museum (which brought the heartache of suffering to mind), so many beautiful shrines and temples, finishing with seeing Sumo wrestling and the gorgeous Imperial East gardens and Shabuya scramble crossing.The views from the Sky Tree Tower were unbelievable too!
So clean, so cultural, so friendly, so beautiful. That was Japan uncovered for us!
Thank you Wendy Wu Tours

Gems of China

Looked at several Wendy wu tours to China but this one seemed to cover a lot of what we wanted to see . Did not disappoint, very well organised by our fantastic tour guide Penny and aided by brilliant local guides . She really helped the group gel with her positive outlook and happy personality. Nothing was to much trouble and every experience amazing .
We were lucky to share the trip with a great group of people and have many great memories .
It is a very full on tour which we expected from the itinerary. It was lovely to dine out in local restaurants and try some local dishes .
Well done Wendy wu and especially Penny .

Had the most amazing holiday on our recent visit to China. The tour was so well planned allowing us to see and do so much. We upgraded on the river cruise which was good value for money. The standard of hotels were very good in every city.
We had an exceptional tour guide called Ivy who attended to our every need and often went above and beyond to help our group. Would definitely recommend Wendy Wu tours for excellent service.

Really excellent tour. Visited all the iconic sights and places in China. Covered an amazing area of the country helped by bullet train and internal flights so this tour didn’t feel as strenuous as tours I have been on before with other operators. Wendy Wu and our lovely Chinese guide were extremely organised. I think China should be on everyone’s bucket list and I would have no hesitation in recommending Wendy Wu as the best company to travel with. Good standard of hotels and restaurants. Great value.

This was our first trip with Wendy Wu tours and it’s worth every penny.

They did everything they could to make this tour as memorable as possible, from personal pick up and drop off at the airports, arranging all the best sights, transport, food, knowledgeable local tour guides and just making sure that every single minute was a pleasure.

We started in Shanghai, then flew to Xian and finally took the bullet train to Beijing before coming back to the Uk via Hong Kong.

All credit to Louis, our hugely knowledgeable tour guide, photographer, interpreter and nanny. His hard work made this tour run like clockwork and we always felt safe and looked after where ever we went.

Go to China, the people are friendly, welcoming and they truly love their country and it’s amazing history.

An excellent tour of the most magnificent spots in Peru, a country of wonderful culture, cuisine and traditions. The organisation, hotels, meals and transport were all of a high standard. The transition to touring at altitude was made gradually so no significant altitude sickness issues in our group. However, Peruvian tour guide Frank Jare turned the trip from excellent to outstanding. His knowledge, organisation, support and most importantly passion for Peru is what puts Wendy Wu tours ahead of its competitors. Thank you Frank.
