The whole Glories of China tour was perfect, great sites to visit, smooth and quick transfers, good hotels and restaurants, friendly and helpful guides (esp Helen Liao) but best of all it was great fun. It was faultless - best tour we have ever had!!

I have recently been on the glories of China tour and have been overwhelmed by the all that I saw. This was a wonderful trip that was smooth from start to finish. Our tour guide Sean was superb as were the local guides Christie, Cindy and Andy. I can only highly recommend the flawless organisational skills which ensured everyone was treated equally and extremely well. A truly unforgettable experience which tested my ability to walk more than the few steps to my car! I returned exhausted but fitter and more knowledgeable about this 'closed' country. I am so pleased that I did this and say to all my friends to be prepared for something really different than a usual sunshine holiday.

I went on the Yunnan adventure tour, 16 days in Yunnan province. Tour guides were excellent, they handled everything with great patience and competence, and some members of the group were 'difficult' to be polite. Food was abundant and very delicious. The only suggestion I would make would be to reduce the number of places on the itinerary, so that we could spend more time on the adventure and less time on the coach.

We have been amazed at the high standard of care, professionalism and outstanding knowledge of our tour guide Vuttha Dan. We could not have asked for a better person to guide us. He considered every detail of our needs including giving us the forecast for the following day so we would know what clothes to wear. His humble and helpful personality was so impressive. We had no doubt that all our needs would be catered for. His knowledge of history was incredible and he brought a wonderfully entertaining sense of humour to our tour. I highly recommend him.

My husband and I have just returned from China. This was a cruise to start with, getting off in Shanghai and starting our 12 day Wendy Wu tour of China. It was seamless, we were met by our tour guide Mark Wong at the cruise terminal and transferred to our hotel for a 2 night stay in Shanghai at the beginning of tour. All the hotels we stayed in were at the least 4☆ the breakfast were great, buffet style that suited all tastes All meals were provided breakfast, lunch and dinner. If we were flying to another part of China that day we would have an early lunch and sandwiches and snacks would be provided for the plane journey On the food side I never eat Chinese food in UK I just don't like it. But I went with an open mind and tried it I found it to be delicious. It was quite samey each day with slight changes but nonetheless really tasty. The only time I did struggle was in the Sichuan province as the food is a little more spicy but hey i survived and the rest of the our group seemed to enjoy it . Our tour also included a 4 night cruise on the Yangtze River. I really enjoyed this, ok it's not a 5 ☆cruise ship but it was clean and comfortable staff were great really accommodating they put on shows for us a really talented bunch. Food was good. We had the most amazing time, far exceeded anything I may have expected. If you have a bucket list to see China then go I would recommend a tour like this we travelled over 3000 miles including 8 cities we went on the longest, the fastest the highest of adventures from the Pandas at Chengdu, Amazing Terracotta warriors in Xian. The great Wall of China in Beijing and so so much more The tour guide and all local guides made sure we experienced as much as possible whilst we were there from going on the Maglev train to a Chinese opera and tea house. And much more We could not have put this your together ourselves over 12 nights It was absolutely seamless, everything was provided for to be honest I got fed up of being fed I just couldn't eat any more Yes you can be picky and find fault with little things someone always does. But from my experience it was amazing and I can only praise our tour guide Mark who really looked after our group, making sure no one was left behind ( various ages from 40 to 84) and we all knew what was happening and when and always finding us a western style toilet which turned out to be fun ( take toilet paper) He was a great Ambassador for Wendy Wu and for his country . Every country has its issues but you will certainly change your view of China when you experience and learn about their culture and the way they live you will be pleasantly surprised . I am very well travelled so feel I can give this review . If anyone thinking of doing this tour or something similar would like to know anymore I would be happy to guide or answer any questions Thank you again for such a wonderful experience Lyne and Paul

This is our third WW experience. China 4star, India 5star. We travel independently but with WW backup. This year in Japan this was important when we found ourselves in a typhoon. WW/ Buffalo were helpful, supportive and organised everything. We too were disappointed the offers did not apply to us e.g. upgrade to business class despite constantly receiving emails advertising offers. Guides in China mostly good, India mostly excellent, Japan satisfactory/good. We loved being pushed a little out of our comfort zone with traditional hotels in Japan including local food which we enjoyed trying but didn't like much. Surprised we didn't get asked for feedback as in other years. We wish to go to South America next time but have been put off by some reviews.

Our tour of Vietnam was booked after a satisfactory tour of China with Wendy Wu and we expected the same quality experience, only to be disappointed. We covered a lot of ground, south to north with a great deal of time spent on buses and internal flights but without the cultural delights of China. We learned little beyond the 'American' war and much of the tour concerned war museums and war artifacts such as the Cu Chi tunnels, one of the more interesting days out. My main grouse was with the quality of the hotels - 2 - 3 star rated at best by our standards. The Vietnamese don't do maintenance well!! The food too was a major failing. Vietnam offers some of the world's most exciting cuisine but we didn't see any of it. We were fed plentifully but poorly. In one restaurant, in Nah Trang, a course consisted of a single steamed prawn. We certainly didn't see much other evidence of shellfish during the 17 days. There is no question that food was provided on a very limited budget. Looking at standard prices we estimate less than £4 per head for lunch! Wendy Wu operate through an agent, Buffalo Tours, in Vietnam and two companies taking a profit may explain the parsimony. In essence, a long way to go, a long, not very clean country to explore with not a lot to see and if the hotels and the food don't come up to snuff, a great disappointment.

Having just returned from a 12 day tour of Cambodia Wendy Wu Tours and their team completely fulfilled our expectations and more. An exceptional tour guide, Mr. Sokhoeun Bout, proudly guided us around his beautiful country with nothing too much to ask. If you are considering Cambodia as a destination I would thoroughly recommend Wendy Wu Tours to take good care of you on your holiday. Thank you Mr. Sokhoeun Bout and Wendy Wu.

We have just returned from a "Wonders of China" tour. It was an amazing experience. We saw and learned so much about this fascinating country. The whole tour was managed superbly and the travel, accommodation etc. were all of a really good standard. Our enjoyment was very much enhanced by our delightful National Tour Guide Raymond Lu. He is an excellent ambassador for Wendy Wu because of his people skills, humour and vitality. Raymond ensured that we always felt safe and, as a superb organiser, he made sure that things ran smoothly.His philosophy and his knowledge of the places we visited helped us to appreciate this complex society. Wendy Wu should be proud of him - he brings great credit to the company.

We have just returned from our trip with Wendy Wu Spirit of the Yangtze. It was an exceptional trip with every aspect well thought out and obviously very well researched. We got to see such a wealth of interesting places but without feeling in any way rushed. We wanted, in particular, to commend our national guide, Clara Lei, who looked after us from our arrival in Beijing to our departure from Shanghai. Clara was on duty 24/7 making sure that everything went smoothly and anticipating our every need. Despite having to concentrate on everything that was happening at all times, Clara created a wonderful atmosphere for our group. She's a credit to your organisation, extremely knowledgeable with her kind and caring personality making us all feel extremely well looked after and cared for. Congratulations and thanks to all at Wendy Wu Tours for giving us a holiday that lived up to every expectation. Richard and Dinah Masters

We have just returned from your 26 day Grand Tour of China. We had an experience which far exceeded our expectations, from the initial booking process to the most efficient organisation throughout the tour. The tour is go go go and covers over 7000km with 4 internal flights, 4 night river cruise and an overnight train journey; not for those with mobility issues. Our National Guide Jason Gao was amazing, patient and very organised. He is a great asset to your company. Our group of 18 was an ideal number and Jason said we were blessed with the weather. Indeed, we began to be concerned that every time we left somewhere it was immediately hit by flooding. To cap off the holiday, our Business Class return was upgraded by Air China to First Class, I could get used to being well and truly pampered. We will be back with Wendy Wu soon and have recommended the company to everyone we meet. Pete and Sue McGinnety

Wendy Wu was one of four travel companies that I contacted regarding our plan to visit China this autumn. After considerable evaluation of the various programs/tours provided by these companies, we chose Wendy Wu, not only because of the suitability of the Wendy Wu itinerary but also because of rhe agent that dealt with us - Miss Arti Gondalia. She was particularly helpful and informative in the matter of our tour, particularly as we are both in our mid 70s and slightly concerned about the fairly busy programme. We are really looking forward to visiting China in September and will be happy to provide a post-tour report. Regards and thanks, Ronald Smith Booking Reference: UK113957 ,
