This was a holiday of a life time for me. I researched for holidays in Cambodia for a while and decided to book with Wendy Wu Tours as it incorporated Vietnam too. Both the countries were amazing, their people, cuisine and historical buildings were incredible. The guides for both countries were extremely knowledgeable about current affairs and the history and made the whole travel experience feel seamless. My fellow travellers were also great fun and helped with making the holiday enjoyable. I had such an amazing experience that when I got back to the UK, I booked next years holiday with Wendy Wu.

It was a magical holiday. As a fairly recent widower I was concerned about being one of only three singletons but this was not to be as everyone was really friendly - 'A good bunch of Brits and Aussies!'.
Observations/Comments:
* Slightly disappointed in the 'Sabi River Sun Resort' hotel compared to all the others but understand this was a rescheduled venue for some reason and it was for only one night.
* Lizwe Ndlovu was an excellet ****** for the first part of the tour however disappointed by Nabeel Daniels who was the ****** from Port Elizabeth through to the end of the holiday:
- he made no attempt to get to know 'who was who'. This became evident when one person missing on a 'head count'.
- he did not represent Wendy Wu well in appearance wearing 'joggers' for most of the time and only a 'WW' poloshirt on our arrival at Port Elizabeth and on departure day.
- no formal 'goodbyes' for those leaving at different times.
- he kept reminding us to provide a good review!
* As an observation the double wine tour together with the final night event at 'Gold' was a bit much for the final day even though all much enjoyed.
A great trip and I'll be back for another 'WW' tour - last year was Vietnam and Cambodia (incl Mekong Cruise).

Amazing Holiday with excellent guides throughout

Very efficient and friendly

Excellent tour to Cambodia and Vietnam although very full on! All the major attractions visited. The cruise to Halong Bay on the Auca2 was amazing although could be a bit longer…one night and it felt like we didn’t get the full 2 days’ cruise! The guides were very knowledgeable and looked after us very well, cannot fault them at all.
Most of the restaurants’ set meals, sharing at times were good except a 2 restaurants where there wasn’t enough of a dish to go round and when this was pointed out we were told it’s to be shared between 4 people and made to feel like we couldn’t count! - the portion allocated was enough for 3 people! Lol!

Really great tour, only frustration was the last day, where we had to check out at 12.00 noon, but were not picked up for our flight until 9.30pm and no late check outs available, and nowhere to shower or change. Long day !

The tour itself was fine. The meals were the same things for lunch and dinner and after 12 days everyone on the tour was fed up and wanted something different. It would have been nice to have some time to do things on your own, like shopping. It was an early starts every day and then about 1 hour to get ready for the evening meals. The tours were very long winded at times in the very hot weather and people started to walk off. The guide was very good and helpful. Very disappointed that we did not go to the show as advertised. We were told before travelling that the Tonkin show was not running and it would be a similar one. The night before we saw this show from across the river and it looked brilliant but when we were taken to a show it was not the one we had seen the previous evening it was just acrobats which was very boring. Hoi An is famous for its lanterns at night but we never even saw this. Wendy Wu needs to realise that people do not want to know about the very ancient history all the time but would like to see the way of life in Vietnam now. I love history but it goes over your head when there is too much of it.

I did everything on line and it was very easy. I have confidence in Wendy Wu as I have used them for China, Japan, Ecuador and Cambodia/ Vietnam already. I have always wanted to do the Five stans, however a level "5" holiday is too much for me these days. Seeing Uzbekistan was a level "1" and within a capable price bracket and was offering a discount, I jumped straight in.

Arti has been very helpful with my friend and I booking for next year to go to Vietnam. She gave us all the information that we needed to decide and explained what was covered in the price.
I already have recommended WW to a friend at work who has registered with you.

Phone call centre to enquire about additional nights on published tour. Natasha handled all my questions very professionally adding suggestions from her own experience. Called back two days later to book holiday. Different operator but not a problem. All details were on screen with additional flights and hotels. All very smooth now booked and looking forward to my trip.

The staff were extremely helpful when we were booking our holiday and very patient in answering our questions. Nothing was too much trouble and we are really looking forward to our holiday to Vietnam and Cambodia next year.

very informative, lady was very helpful

Able to sort out problems efficiently, no hassle, excellent service

Good information about flights, hotels, visa etc. very knowledgeable and friendly advice.

This was an amazing experience from start to finish.
Booking was easy, with super friendly and professional staff who were more than willing to help us with extra flights for a 2 week trip before we joined the cruise.
The Victoria Meekong boat was impressive………new, modern and impeccably spotless with every need catered for. The cabins were extremely spacious with a small private balcony to relax and enjoy the scenery en route.
The crew were so friendly, always happy and smiling, going above and beyond to ensure our every need was catered for.
The food was delicious with breakfast, lunch and dinner included everyday in the package. It was a mix of Western and Asian cuisine and there was definitely no chance of ever going hungry! Hot drinks, soft beverages and beer were available at no extra cost throughout the day and also wine during lunch and dinner.
There were excursions most days ( morning and afternoon) which were entirely optional. As, it was 40 degrees throughout our cruise, we chose to just do one per day as it was completely exhausting in the heat. Instead we took advantage to recharge and relax on the sun loungers, dipping in and out of the pool to cool off.
If I had to be super critical of one aspect of the cruise ( and it did not in the least affect our enjoyment of the holiday!), was that some of the excursions did not meet our expectations. Too many similar experiences and duplications ( temple visits and silk making for example). Also, the floating market was a disappointment and did not look like the picture advertised on the website.
Finally, the Tour Guides we had for both Vietnam and Cambodia were brilliant. Great characters, full of life, funny and extremely knowledgable.
A great trip and wonderful memories made!
