Wendy Wu Tours

Both guides for China ( Ryan) and Japan ( Hiroshi) were amazing. Looked after the group well and extremely helpful in assisting especially with diet requirements as much as they were able to

Saw lots of interesting places.
Hotels in Japan were not up to the standard of China which surprised us.
Very small rooms , not well appointed ( especially the bathrooms) and extremely crowded.. waiting for a lift or question for breakfast in Japan was frustrating.

Bring Coeliac on these countries was exceptionally challenging. Options were very limited and understanding of cross contamination very poor. Breakfast options were also limited due to it always being a buffet. Not all places were able to cook uncontaminated food.
Have translations available but still difficult.

Traveled on bus, trains. Planes, boats , cable cars
Learnt a lot about the history and also the current lifestyle..
Great mix of people on the tour who all got on well together and looked out for each other.

Hotels excellent with exception of Continental Samarkand. Not the same standard as other hotels on the tour.
Recommend voice box for travellers as guide had to compete with other guides to be heard

We had a fantastic experience on 2 Wendy Wu Tours. A China Experience tour was just brilliant. We had a fantastic tour guide Dan in China he looked after everyone he is so knowledgeable and fun to be around. We had many highlights on this tour. Dan made everything run smoothly. Then we went to Japan on Japan uncovered tour this was also brilliant a different cultural experience. Emico our tour guide made the tour so enjoyable with her knowledge of each place in Japan, Emico looked after everyone. Happy with only 28 people Max on both tours. This made it enjoyable to meet people easily. Hotel locations for both tours were great. We thoroughly enjoyed our Wendy Wu Tours.

life changing

Excellent organisation throughout. At 72 years old I found the pace very good, occaionally hard work. Some of the castle stairs were very steep...upto 61 degrees!
Some fair distances covered by coach but itinerary and breaks were well planned.

"Why Namibia?" I was asked prior to embarking on this holiday. I am not sure that I can, even now, answer the question. However, I can strongly recommend Namibia, particularly as presented by Wendy Wu Holidays. In some ways, an Agony and Ecstasy holiday, it involved long road/track journeys that brought one to amazing locations, where words such as "wonderful" and "superb" became inadequate. Throw in very comfortable hotels, a great guide, an amazing driver and a lovely group of fellow travellers - what more could one ask for?

Very straightforward, answered all our questions, very professional.

efficient, polite, patient employee. she helped book the trip we had chosen

Excellent guide. A little ambitious time-wise, days could have been 1 hour shorter before dinner as all days had early starts. Would have preferred to spend more time in Hanoi and skip Hei. Commentary so good, big build up to Ha Long Bay which was an anticlimax, possibly because I live in Sydney with its beautiful harbour and foreshores. Enjoyed all the food and the people on the tour.
Thank you
