"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 were humbled to receive so much positive feedback from clients affected by the onset of the Coronavirus crisis. We hope the positive experience of customers, who still managed to enjoy their tours even as the pandemic hit, shows how wonderful your experience will be once we all get travelling again.



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

Our national tour guide was Mark Wong, he was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, always available to help with any issues. He made the trip the wonderful experience it was. He was the total professional.
Also Cherry one of the local guides (in the one of the photos below) was very good as well, her jokes made us all laugh.
So many highlights, like the Wall, the scenery around the Three Gouges, & the panda bears to mention a few. Great trip.

Absolutely fantastic, cram packed tour with so may contrasting places and experiences. Walking along the Great Walk and strolling round mountain tops where we stood above the clouds and looked down at the brown Yangtze where it met with its green tributaries. The deep crevices of the rift valley with its shafts of daylight poking through. We went under overhanging boulders and deep dark gorges. Such contrasting features.

We experienced the hustle and bustle of huge cities like Beijing and Shanghai and smaller towns like Guilin with a slower pace. We met Mr. Wong the fisherman, with his cormorants and asked him about his life, a way of life that's dying out as youngsters don't want to fish. They'd rather have city jobs.

I loved the .people's parks and the tea rooms with beautiful traditional music playing in one area and live singers backed by musicians in another part. Whilst visiting a rural settings just outside Guilin with its serene, tranquil, stunning scenery, we stumbled on a village wedding and were greeted with sweeties and peanuts as soon as we were spotted.

I will never forget the magnificent sight of the Terra-cotta army in their original burial sites and close encounters with a few of the warriors preserved in glass cases for closer inspection. And of course watching those lazy laid back pandas strolling around their grounds and leisurely climbing trees.

We went to four shows all very diverse and highly entertaining from the unique singing of the Beijing Opera, to the spectacular water show on the lake and then the jaw dropping acrobats and bikers in Shanghai.

Out on the streets and particularly in historic places, were lots of young ladies wearing stunning , traditional very evocative of a traditional Chinese culture. They were very beautiful.

There was so much more to see but I've already written more than I probably should.

Our tour guide, Alice was very professional with all the qualities necessary to keep us well fed, entertained, safe and well informed. She, along with Wendy Wu made this a trip of a life time. I loved every cram packed minute and crave those delicious banquet meals.

Excellent Tour, varied, educational, fast paced. An introduction to a great country which changed attitudes. Our Tour Guide Mark was brilliant; nothing was too much trouble for him. Everything ran efficiently. The eating places were very good. The hotels were, in the main, excellent. A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

An excellent guided holiday covering the favourite tourist spots in three weeks. Great food, sights and good English speaking national and local guides. Well organised, with good customer support, and flexibility for flights, and extras like extensions.

It was rather hot and humid in September; probably mid October would be better. Should also be less crowded then. Physically not that demanding except walking up to the Great Wall with steep steps and some patches without handrails.

An excellent holiday to see as many places as possible in a given time without all the hassle of organising it.

Our Response

Thank you for sharing your review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your three-week guided holiday and found it well organised, with great food, sights, and knowledgeable guides throughout.

We also appreciate your feedback about the weather, mid-October is indeed a lovely time to visit, the temperature is a little cooler than in September but it can still be very busy. Thank you once again for travelling with Wendy Wu Tours, and we hope to welcome you on another tour soon! Jimmy, Wendy Wu Tours.

Very well organised, superb guide throughout.
It's a busy schedule. So be prepared for busy morning afternoon and evenings. That said you get through an amazing range of experiences.
Read wendy wu description of tour it is very clear and representative of the trip.
Each hotel had convenience stores very close by, so we were able to get a few essentials, beer, water, toiletries etc.

The wendy wu booking agent organised stopovers on the outbound and tweaks to arrival that gave us some time to take the journey to beijing more leisurely, thanks.
Only thing we would do differently is book a stopover on the way back. Our choice, but shanghai to uk was a long day with the 7 hour difference.
I recommend wendy wu and this tour to you.
We are in our 70's, and maybe if your older or mobility is not so good, and more leisurely wendy wu tour might be better.

This really was a 'Magnificent' holiday. So much was packed into it and nothing was too much trouble for our tour guide, Betty, to make it as enjoyable as possible. We saw and and did such a great variety of things - well done to Wendy Wu Tours for putting together this great itinerary. It has been a really memorable holiday.

This was a very interesting tour and we covered a huge area and enjoyed a tremendous amount of activities, sites and entertainments. It gave us a real insight into modern China and how impressively it is developing into a super modern country whilst retaining traditional culture and values.
Because China is so vast the tour entailed a lot of travelling which could be tiring, but without which we would not have seen so much.
Special mention must be made of our National guide Jason. He was tremendous; managing a group which included a number of people with mobility issues. Jason was painstaking in ensuring everyone was looked after; nothing was too much trouble for him and he really made the holiday special for all of us. All the local guides were also very good, especially Grace in Shanghai who was lovely.

Overall a good tour with two seats per person in coach.
Hotels: Good except the one in Chengdu. No aircon was at times hard to sleep as you couldn't open window in rooms and it was rather hot and airless.
Food: Plenty and tasty but no fish to speak of and no desert but just a slice of watermelon.
Guide: Penny was throughout excellent except in Xian, her hometown. There she made us dressed up with cheap chinese sort of shirts and a cheap fan and took us to the main street to stroll with the locals. All was OK until the following day when she told us that the "experience which we couldn't miss" was Y280/each! and she made us be part of the spectacle... it was not proper. She should have told us the short coach transfer and her fees BEFORE she said we couldn't miss it. It was disappointing and many of us weren't happy. The experience was definitely NOT worth the cost.

I bought pyjamas for my granddaughters. a 4 generation jade Ball for myself.
2 silk pillows. 2 fans.
