Our first escorted tour and probably the best holiday we had! From being greeted off our delayed flight in Osaka with a big smile from our Wendy Wu greeter, ensured we were on our way to our hotel. A big smile and greeting from our guide, Taichi Imamura at the hotel although late, made us feel "at home" and he ensured that we had our bentobox dinner.
Words cannot describe how Taichi made sure that everyone knew what was happening at each place we stopped at, where the best rest rooms were, places to pick up snacks. Even taking photos for everyone with their cameras and phones to ensure all memories were saved of the magnificent sights we saw. All the coach drivers were fantastic throughout the tour, hotels were very good and generally spacious and the places we were taken to for lunch and dinner had excellent facilities and good quality food. I can safely say that all the people on the tour, which comprised Australians, New Zealanders, Tasmanians and English, from the very first evening to the last all got on and mixed amongst each other and some great fun times were had by all.
We even found time to locate a few "Irish hubs"(pub) on the evenings and had some great laughs with Brian and Brenda from New Zealand, Tom and Kim and Stella/Julia in them. There were so many places we saw including Mount Fuji, Hiroshima dome and museum (which brought the heartache of suffering to mind), so many beautiful shrines and temples, finishing with seeing Sumo wrestling and the gorgeous Imperial East gardens and Shabuya scramble crossing.The views from the Sky Tree Tower were unbelievable too!
So clean, so cultural, so friendly, so beautiful. That was Japan uncovered for us!
Thank you Wendy Wu Tours

Gems of China

Looked at several Wendy wu tours to China but this one seemed to cover a lot of what we wanted to see . Did not disappoint, very well organised by our fantastic tour guide Penny and aided by brilliant local guides . She really helped the group gel with her positive outlook and happy personality. Nothing was to much trouble and every experience amazing .
We were lucky to share the trip with a great group of people and have many great memories .
It is a very full on tour which we expected from the itinerary. It was lovely to dine out in local restaurants and try some local dishes .
Well done Wendy wu and especially Penny .

Mongolia blew my mind. From the Gobi desert to the steppes. The steppes reminded me of Switzerland, but on steroids. It was lovely to see so many animals roaming freely. It was everything I wanted in my adventure in Mongolia . Staying in the yurts, 14 of them was an experience. Like everything some were better than others. The opening ceremony of the Naadam festival was as good as anything I’ve seen at the Olympics.

The trip as a whole was above our expectations. The changing scenery was fantastic. The drives outside of Ulaanbaatar were rough but as described in the itinerary and the scenery made up for the conditions. The gers and food on the whole were much better than I was expecting. The guide was ok but at times did not give accurate instructions for the next day and slower members of the group were often left behind on walks. We were given 2 packed lunches that I considered inappropriate as both the main meals contained warm meat and rice or veg that may have been hot in the morning but by lunch time just warm. They had just been kept in bags in the bus and not cooled at all. I considered this a health hazard. The breakfast provided on the final day in comparison was very good. It was difficult as we could not use the return flight to Ulaanbaatar from the lake due to flight delays I think but this resulted in a two day drive back to the capital and reduced our time there and made the days before the festival very tiring. The opening ceremony was fantastic and very colourful. The wrestling archery and knuckle bone contests interesting. The final day for the horse racing was a long very slow drive due to the amount of traffic and resulted in us having to walk a long way to the start of the race. The race was delayed and all you saw was a few riders setting off then about an hour after the riders crossing the finish line. It was a long time for not much entertainment.

Brilliant holiday in a very diverse, amazing country. Exceeded my expectations as I didn’t realise how vast and different areas of the country were. A very proud nation of people who have kept to their traditions and roots which is sadly lacking in some places around the world. I would describe this break as an adventure rather than a holiday and would definitely recommend for the adventurers out there, the take it as you find it type of traveller 👍. Some of the scenery is breath taking

A very enjoyable holiday that took in the major attractions in Japan. There was a full programme of visits and activities and we especially enjoyed Kyoto, Tokyo and Himeji Castle. The food was enjoyable, especially the Authentic Japanese cuisine. There is never too much free time on these tours, but we would have appreciated a bit more free time to shop or explore independently.
Add on days at the beginning in Tokyo and at the end in Osaka to get the most out of your trip.
Great bunch of fellow travellers with the majority from Australia and New Zealand. Our guide was excellent and kept us organised.

Amazing trip, very well organised! Yang was a fantastic tour guide and managed everything superbly. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to explore China!

EXCELLENT HOLIDAY AND REALLY GOOD AND HELPFUL GUIDE

Had the most amazing holiday on our recent visit to China. The tour was so well planned allowing us to see and do so much. We upgraded on the river cruise which was good value for money. The standard of hotels were very good in every city.
We had an exceptional tour guide called Ivy who attended to our every need and often went above and beyond to help our group. Would definitely recommend Wendy Wu tours for excellent service.

Excellent variety and standard of accommodation with lovely food. Our guides in every country were wonderful and so passionate and each of the five countries were so different.

It was indeed a Grand Tour of China- from East to West and North to South. Excellent itinerary. There is so much to see in China and is never enough but we experienced most of the important sites and experienced how modern China is along with natural buties and historical sites. This was also a culinary tour with different tastes from different regions of China. Tour manager Hoffman was superb. He was very organised, knowledgable , efficient and indeed with sense of humour.
Will recommend Wendy Wu for anyone interested in an escorted tour of China.

This was a great holiday touring South Korea with a three day stop over in Hong Kong on the way back. The tour guide was excellent and was always available to resolve any queries and onward travel departure times for the different nationalities. The tour bus was also very good with plenty of leg room even for me at 6' 5".

a very enjoyable trip. we were well looked after at all times. a first visit to the country, everything went well .
