Wendy Wu Tours

Amazing holiday started in Egypt with Cairo. The Pyramids & Sphinx took your breath away and the new museum GEM is fantastic.
My father fought in WWII at El Alamein so this was a personal part for me. Alexandria was different as it’s on the Med. The Nile Cruise was so relaxing with the pool getting used daily. The temples, hieroglyphics, cartouches, statues, Valley of the Kings with Seti I Tomb the most amazing. The best of the temples was Abu Simbel in such a beautiful setting with Temple of Philae also beautiful in Nubia. Our guide Egyptologist Yousef was amazing and his associate Shady was so good too.
Jordan with a new guide, Mohammed who was brilliant. We visited several Roman ruins in Jerash & Amman, mosaics in Madaba, the unbelievable Petra, atmospheric Wadi Rum and floated in the Dead Sea.
Our fellow travellers were a great crew and we had lots of laughs and many group photos.
The hotels were of a high quality as you would expect from Wendy Wu.
Two and a half weeks of incredible sights, smells, lots of shopping in the bazaars.
Another super holiday with you.

An amazing holiday that I would highly recommend to anyone interested in visiting China. There are some long days, but necessary to see as much as possible. Our National guide Jason was amazing, going out of his way to ensure that all his clients got the best out of the holiday. A special mention to LJ our local guide in Zhangjiajie who amended the itinerary in order to see as much as possible despite the disappointing weather. I also upgraded to the amenities package on the Yangtze which I really enjoyed, especially the a la carte service and generous wine with lunch and dinner. I also went to all the additional evening shows which I enjoyed. Do not miss the Romance of the Three Kingdoms show, it is spellbinding. The cruise in Shanghai was a lovely end to a fantastic holiday. Thank you so much Wendy Wu and your team.

Julia was very helpful and she answered all my questions.

Excellent tour guides regional and local. Excellent activities during holiday

Excellent trip , Jason our tour guide was amazing .
Very busy and full on trip , loved China and will definitely return .

A very full on holiday, you must be reasonable fit as they are a lot of climbing and walking at the castles

This is a fully escorted tour, our national guide Andy was knowledgeable, helpful and ensured the tour run smoothly. We saw all the sights/ events as advertised. We enjoyed the food and individual requirements were catered for.
Ithe touris full on with not too much time for individual sightseeing. Starting in Shanghai with a finish in Beijing I think is the best way round. The major sights of Great Wall, forbidden city, Terracotta Army and pandas were all to look forward to in the final week.

Fitted the description. Well organised. Pleasant informative National Guide and excellent use of local guides

Good value for money as all inclusive so only expenditure was personal drinks and any shopping.

I would definitely recommend this tour

Our tour guide, Emiko, was fabulous. I learned so much history and heard the many stories/fables associated with places around Japan. She was very helpful and answered so many questions from our group with a smile on her face the whole time.
I visited well-known places and areas that I hadn't heard of before, which was a good mix. There are lots of temples and shrines in Japan.
On Miyajima Island, near Hiroshima, there are wild deer wandering around. They are very aggressive. I was walking back to the ferry with a gelato & a deer bit my trousers, then jumped on me, then bit me on the hip (it left teeth marks) to get to my gelato. It was a scary & painful experience, unfortunately. I'm relating this in the review for people to be aware not to walk around with any food & be wary of the deer.
The tea ceremony and making washi paper were fun experiences.
I have unusual dietary requirements and although the restaurants are told ahead of time, they usually were not very good at giving me food without the items that I couldn't eat. Sometimes they tried to substitute foods for me. One restaurant substituted a bread roll with porridge! If you can eat anything, you'll have no problems. If you can't, bring snacks for yourself.
There are usually convenience stores near the hotels, so you can also buy food there.
The hotels were very nice and comfortable and in good locations. All had a buffet breakfast of both Japanese and Western style foods.
The coaches that transported us around had lovely drivers and were comfortable, although none of them had toilets. But we did make stop at services along our routes, which were really great.
Japan is a very clean country with the cleanest public toilets that I've ever seen.

Japan uncovered with Wendy Wu tours was fabulous.
It’s very full on, but very well organised, our tour guide was great.
I would recommend flying two days before tour begins as we flew day before our flight was delayed, on arrival to the first hotel after27 hours of travel we were rushed into the welcome meal, didn’t have time to refresh, the meal was very good as was all the food.
The tour takes you from one end of Japan to the other, if there is anything you want to see which isn’t included in the tour, there isn’t much free time but our guide was very helpful to organise anything else for you.
I would recommend Wendy Wu tours
