"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 also have more fantastic reviews from around the globe on TripAdvisor, including many 5 star!

Majestic Yangtze

Sunday 22 Mar 2026
Overview Rating:
Alison was a fantastic guide, managing a group of 15 very different people. Alison’s English was excellent and was always on hand to help with any issues 24/7. She made it very clear when we had things to do, what we needed to prepare and where we were going next. 
 
Alison is wonderfully energetic and good fun to be around, she taught us Mahjong while we were on the Yangtze cruise. A precious experience to learn mahjong in China with new friends. Thank you to Alison and all of our local guides who helped us in each location we arrived in.
 
Our Majestic Yangtze tour was awesome, and packed a great deal into a short space of time (2 weeks). 
 
We did all the must see and must do activities in China such as visiting Shanghai, travelling by bullet train, cruising on the Yangtze River, seeing the Chengdu Pandas and Xian Terracotta Warriors up close and of course walking the Great Chinese Wall early in the morning with beautiful blue skies above. 
 
In addition, on one of the optional tours, we visited the Tribe of the Three Gorges. The scenery was spectacular, the tribe guide, costumes, ships, monkeys and crying marriage show were spectacular, such a memorable highlight for us. 
 
What a fantastic tour and experience, thank you to all at Wendy Wu!

This was our first tour and we were extremely impressed by the organisation and the standards. The size of our group (19) was not overwhelming and allowed us to get to know our fellow travellers well. Our guide Jason was absolutely outstanding at his job. He was caring and knowledgeable with a good sense of humour, which added to the experience. 

Treasures of Malaysia, Borneo & Singapore

Our Tour: Excellent
Really enjoyed this tour! A good mixture of cities, countryside and wildlife. So many highlights on this trip although if I had to pick I would say the Cameron Highlands, the wildlife of Borneo and the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. The food was good and varied. The weather was hot & humid so be prepared clothes wise. I purposefully brought longer trousers as the itinerary said to dress conservatively however shorts of a decent length were perfectly fine for most places & our guide would highlight where longer trousers were needed the day prior (only the Batu Caves as I remember). I was glad I brought the longer trousers for Borneo though to avoid the pesky mosquitos (also bring bug spray). Also, definitely take a change of clothes for the river cruise in Kota Kinabalu in case of a sudden downpour as it's a 2 hour coach ride back to the hotel which is not pleasant in damp clothes.

I would highlight that this tour has a physical rating of level 1. For me (as some aged in my 30's with a good level of fitness) I would classify it as a level 2 given the heat & humidity along with the intensity of some of the walks with a lot of stairs and uneven ground! Just something to bear in mind when considering this tour as the general consensus in my group was that it was A LOT more physically demanding that any of us expected. This includes people on their 2nd, 3rd, 4th. . . Wendy Wu tour.

The tour only includes one day in Singapore. Given the amount of things to see in this incredible city I think it would be worthwhile staying for an extra night or two if possible.

Overall I would definitely recommend this tour! Had a fantastic two weeks with a brilliant group of people. Thank you to our wonderful guides - especially Kugan in Peninsular Malaysia and Kurt in Borneo - if you are lucky enough to have these guides in the future you're in good hands!

It was the usual Wendy Wu experience. Full on and covered a lot.
Accommodation was great and hotel catering was good. However, some of the external eateries left something to be desired. The street food experience was not great and the last meal in Singapore left a few of us unwell.

A China Experience

Although this trip was short, it was packed with lots of sights and experiences.
The National Guide Ivan was kind, generous with his time and so knowledgeable. The local guides also had a lot to offer.
Our schedule was full, early starts to beat queues and late finishes but the hotels were in good positions to be able to walk out if you wished.
It difficult to choose an highlight but for me it might just be The Great Wall, or maybe The Terracotta Army. I also found the robots amazing.
We all felt safe on the trip, found the people friendly and proud of their country

We had a wonderful time in Sri Lanka. Our trip was made so good by our guide Lathif, helper Jaya and our driver. Jaya greeted us with a fresh flower and a huge smile everyday. Our driver got us from a to b over some very narrow roads really well. Lathif was amazing. A few of us were ill during the trip and he was so kind and thoughtful. We also arrived a day late because of airline issues and he even called us in the car after we had been collected at the airport in Colombo. He has a great sense of humour and really brought the country alive for us all.

Japan by Rail

Our Tour: Excellent
A full on 21 day tour of castles, shrines, temples, gardens, sights and experiences from the comfort of the trains and coaches.
Our guide Mami San was fantastic throughout keeping a close eye on the itinerary and the group whilst imparting insights and information about the wonderful culture and history of Japan.
The tour takes in not just the major cities but historical towns and places within the 3 main islands that make up Japan. The food was amazing with many different types of food with breakfast, lunch and dinner all catered for and the hotels were really nice. All in all a fantastic way to explore the wonderful islands of Japan.

A bit of a hiccup on day one of the first Ecuador trip created, which I feel sure was rectified on later tours, but otherwise perfect on each and every tour that I have done; China; Japan x 2; Ecuador + Galapagos; Vietnam [though here, too much regarding the war and not enough beautiful scenery for my liking, but fabulous boat trip down the Mekong and in Halong Bay]; and most recently Uzbekistan. I have also booked next year in Kyrgyzstan with Wendy Wu. and have wishes for future trips that Wendy Wu do. They look after you throughout the day from Breakfast through Evening Meal and as I get older, I feel the need for the reassurance and trust they give me.

Tibetan Railroad

A very well thought out itinerary starting with the highest railroad in the world to help ease you into Lhasa. For me the iconic Potala Palace didn’t disappoint. Each monastery we visited had a different special feature and then the view of Everest at the base camp was majestic even though the scenery was stunning all the way with blue lakes and white topped mountains as background. Huge variety of food and tea!!

I couldn't fault them - from the telephone chat to decide on the right holiday for me, to the preparation of the paperwork and flight, the choice of hotels and the places we visited, and above all, the wonderful guide who was with us throughout.
This was my first solo holiday and I found some fabulous people to spend time with. The visits, which were plentiful, were not rushed.
It was so good, I've just booked again with them for next year.
