"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!

Overview Rating:
Our Tour: Good
Lots of positives and some negatives.
Breakdown of days after arrival.

Explore Kuching. Quite Interesting.

Bako National Park. Good.

Semenggoh & Sri Aman. Very good. Lucky enough to see orangutans.

Iban Longhouse. Lots of travel but well worth it.

Return to Kuching. Nothing day.

Fly to Kota Kinabalu Nothing day.

Explore Kota Kinabalu Some good.

Kinabalu Park Trails Good.

Fly to Sandakan. Got up at 3.00am to visit Sandakan Memorial Park to see the remains of an old boiler. Went to a church that was closed. Went up loads of steps to see a monument of William Pryer. Very enjoyable English meal at a very good location.

Sepilok Orangutan Rehab Centre. Superb day.

Kinabatangan River Explorations. Superb day.

Return to Kota Kinabalu. Good day.

To summarise.

Too much moving and packing and returning to same place.

Palace Hotel in the middle of nowhere. We had a lovely last evening meal a bus ride away. It would have been better staying in that area.

We were lucky enough to see orangutans, pygmy elephants, snow bears, proboscis monkeys and crocodiles.

We stayed at some very good locations.

Finally and very importantly our guides Selvam & Wayne were the best you could have asked for. They were very knowledgeable extremely kind and helpful.

Just returned from Borneo with Wendy Wu Tours, the guide Selvan was amazing, educated, caring, professional, friendly - goes above and beyond.  You are so lucky to have such a person acting on your behalf in Borneo.  I had to write and tell you. He is a credit to his home to Malaysia to himself to his family to Borneo and to Wendy Wu Tours.

Third holiday with Wendy Wu and left with so many good memories. WARNING, Wendy Wu holidays are not suitable for beach bums, who want to lie on a beach doing doing nothing!
If, however, you want to engage with nature (in Borneo much of nature is unique to this island), learn more about Asian cultures, eat in different restaurants, with different themes, then Wendy Wu cuts it!
Your camera will be in overtime when visiting such as the Orang Utan sanctuaries and Chinese temples. Staying at the Riverside (Kinabatangan river) for a few days, was particularly interesting. Jungle walks (day & night), visit ox bow lakes, see Crocodiles on the banks and see the fascinating Fireflies. Even our journey, returning to Sandakan, we got a close up of a Tree Paradise snake and our largest croc (about 5m long). Lots of interesting birds and Proboscis monkeys have to be seen!
Well organised trip with agents meeting/picking up/dropping off at airports. Covid disrupted elements of the booking, but the WW team worked hard to surmount with such as alternative flights. WARNING keep vaccs up to date.
There is an option to add such as a couple of days in Singapore. Recommend this, although my wife and I paid for an extension to make this element a week long (good move). Singapore, not cheap but fascinating. We ate at Hawkers (these days food halls below the many shopping malls) keeping eating costs down. Hotel was at the Tanglin/Orchard rd junction (heart of the city).
Holiday to remember!

itinerary very good transport during our stay in Kuching was very uncomfortable and not fit for purpose too small for the group + luggage Waterfront Hotel good .Hotel Seri Simanggang in Sri Aman very poor food and service poor .Horizon hotel in Kota Kinabalu inSaba good Guides at all resorts first class we were looked after very well. Would have preferred to have had more time in Sepilok nature resort a beautiful setting. Abai Jungle lodge in Kinabatangan also lovely .wondered why we had a flights home one day later than the rest of the group?

Well structured tour.
Too much time eating. Could have done more sightseeing. Cut out / reduce lunch...
Meals were too samey (Chinese style). Needed more of other local styles. I know there was restriction post covid.
Excellent tour guide (Selvan).
In Kuching visit to Malay village was not good. Better to get ferry across to see Fort Margherita (excellent refurb) and will be even better when tea house is completed. Could also get a Malay village experience there (on walk through to fort). Some of the old style restaurants looked interesting too.
On last morning in Kuching here is an hour to kill; the Ranee museum (next to Waterfront hotel) is fab.

Once again Wendy Wu delivered on a fabulous holiday to Borneo. From meeting us at the arrivals in Kuching to saying farewell in the departures of Kota Kinabalu they looked after us all the way. The three local guides we had throughout the tour were very knowledgeable and helpful in both cities and jungles. We were lucky enough to see a huge range of animals while at both Abai Jungle Lodge and at Bako National Park. Also during both visits to the orangutan centres at Semenggoh and Sepilok we had the good fortune of seeing these wonderful animals.

Product :

A good price for this all inclusive holiday and well looked after.
