From start to finish the tour was a show stopper. Every day was a highlight and more. Stop, and pinch yourself, you are in China. Travel further West and you arrive in Lhasa. What a fantastic city and experience. And then fly back into China to continue your adventure. Between all the major sights you get to experience every day life and marvel at the river and landscapes.
Our accompanying National Guide was brilliant throughout the trip and each Local Guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. This trip was additionally made exceptional by my fellow travellers. We had a fantastic time.
Would I do it again? Yes I would.

The whole tour was amazing packed with a variety of things and experiences. The guide Jacky on our China and Tibet went the extra mile to make our tour exceptional. The food was amazing such a variety of flavours. There was one day when we had a very late internal flight the guide did his best to give us a variety of experiences while we waited for our flight at 22.00hrs. I think it would have been better to have had an earlier flight. This is my first holiday with Wendy wu I will definitely book again. Although the admin staff at the office really need to be mote professional and have a "yes I can help "attitude rather than making it feel it really is inconvenient for you to call us.

Phenomenal tour - saw all the major sites that you'd expect when visiting China for the 1st time. The tours were well organised and the guides were great. The hotels were generally ok, although not great - somewhat tired and out in the suburbs.

Very good, Arti is knowledgeable, personable, and non pushy. Great experience so far, and very excited about our trip of a lifetime next year.

Very full on, sometimes 12-14 hour days and lots of travelling but we saw amazing things. Would like to say that this is nature with lots of shuttle buses and lots of people so don’t expect it all to yourself. 45,000 people allowed up each day and you are walking on boardwalks with the others almost in a conveyor belt style. I didnt expect this so wanted to pass on. Food for vegetarians very bland - same every lunch and dinner pretty much. Guides were excellent and we took advantage of all the extra shoes etc would recommend as it was amazing and we saw so much but don’t miss the amount of people, toilets or the food!! Makes London feel empty!

We had a fantastic holiday. China is a fascinating place and the Wendy Wu tour gave us a really good mix of sights, sounds, experiences and tastes. There were so many highlights it would take too long to list them all. The national and local guides were all great - very friendly and welcoming - and China felt much less forbidding than I’d feared.

First rate holiday superbly organized with many interesting and fascinating locations and activities. Everything exceeded expectations . Hotels and food was first class.

We both had an excellent experience and would definitely recommend Wendy wu tours

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Our guide Amanda was outstanding. All the accommodation was good and the food fine. Nothing negative to say, though perhaps grading could be moved upwards from moderate as the pace was quite quick at times.

THe trip was very good value for money. W
We did everything on the itinery and more. THe tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. She could not have been nicer. It was a trip of a lifetime

The glories of China tour is excellent, Wendy Wu organisation works so very well, taking us through very crowded venues efficiently allowing us good time to see as well as be told the the history of places. Would recommend to any interested party

Jason, the National guide, was an absolute gem himself. Wendy Wu are so fortunate to have him as part of the team.
The tour was everything I hoped it would be and more. The Forbidden Palace was a delight, especially with so many in national costumes. The Terracotta Warriors were a dream come true and my main reason for travelling to China. However, the pandas of Chengdu were a very close second and hold a special place in my heart. There were so many memorable experiences that I will treasure and I am so very happy that I chose Wendy Wu as my tour operator.
My only constructive feedback is that the trip should have been rated as a 3 level difficulty. It was very full on and quite exhausting. Also it would be good to have more detail about the additional shows and excursions, as I felt 'all showed out' before the end of the trip and unsure whether I had seen the best on offer. The inability to switch off the announcements on the cruise was an annoyance as I had specifically booked this trip to have 3 days of rest and this was not made possible by such early and repeated announcements.
Thank you

Just got back from china and couldn’t recommend the tour guides enough

From our arrival in Beijing to our departure from Shanghai this was an excellent holiday with our guide, Betty, going above and beyond to make sure we had a fabulous time.
There were quite a few early starts - this isn't a trip if your idea of a holiday is relaxing with a good book - but there was so much to see!
In Beijing we saw Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden Palace, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, the Great Wall and more.
We then took a bullet train to Xian (amazing experience - totally smooth journey travelling at up to 250mph). We explored the city including the Muslim food quarter and the restored city walls and then went to the Terracotta Warriors.
The next day we took an early flight to Yichang and made our way to Maoping docks near the Three Gorges on the Yangtze river where we boarded the almost brand new Victoria Isabella. The weather was dreadful for our 4 days on the boat but the facilities and staff were excellent and we did get a few excursions.
We left the boat at Chongqing and went to the zoo where we saw pandas (a real highlight) and many other animals. A second bullet train took us to Guilin where we spent a night in the Waterfall Hotel (at 2030 every day a massive waterfall cascades down the outside of the building).
The next day, the sun came out and we took a boat trip down the beautiful River Li to Yangshuo. After a night there, we made our way back through the countryside to Guilin, seeing local people and the rice harvest.
After a second night in Guilin (a small but beautiful city) we took a flight to Shanghai, arriving in the early evening. A boat trip on the river Huangpu lets you see the Bund area with the most amazing lights display.
Our final day was spent exploring the city of Shanghai including the beautiful Yu gardens.
China is spotlessly clean. There are reasonable, free public toilets everywhere and the people are friendly (several conversation attempts via Google translate). There are security cameras and police everywhere and you are constantly asked for your passport but it never felt oppressive.

Excellent, extremely well organised tour with an exciting varied itinerary that covered many of China's iconic sights. Lovely group of people of varying ages, delicious meals and comfortable hotels. Jason, our national guide, was wonderful. He had a great sense of humour, was very knowledgeable and took great care of the group every step of the way. This was my first organised tour and I would thoroughly recommend Wendy Wu to anyone thinking of booking an adventure.
