The tour was arranged really well with excellent hotels and two very good guides, one in Cambodia one in Vietnam, it was pretty intense with a lot of travel, but all the time there were visits to some wonderful places, the veitnam guide in particular giving an insight into the history of the country.

This holiday really lived up to its description in Wendy Wu's brochure. Cambodia was an unknown quantity for us prior to going there and we learned so much about its culture, national treasures and its people in the space of a few days thanks to our more than excellent guide. We particularly enjoyed our visits to Angkor Wat and the floating village at Chong Kneas. Vietnam was exceptionally interesting, with boat trips on the Mekong Delta, the Perfume River and Halong Bay. Visits to Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum and his dwelling places in Hanoi were fascinating as was seeing the French Quarter there. The area round the Citadel at Hue, the Citadel and the Royal Palace and purple City makes Hue a very special place. No trip to Vietnam would be complete without checking out the Cu Chi tunnels. There is not enough space here to describe all the main features of this trip which more than fulfilled our expectations
Travel, hotels, and ticketing arrangements all worked like clockwork and the guides could not have been better.

We were a little apprehensive about all the food being provided. Would it be mostly buffet style? Would it be cold? In fact the food throughout the tour was all freshly-prepared, very flavoursome, plentiful and varied. Wendy Wu had clearly put a lot of thought into the tour. The itinerary worked very well and was at just the right pace for us. We had separate tour guides in Laos and Cambodia and both were excellent. I really liked Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Siem Reap and most of all the whole Angkor Wat complex. I think Luang Prabang was my wife's favourite place.

We've come home exhausted from a truly fabulous trip around Cambodia and Vietnam and feel that we've seen pretty much everything these beautiful countries have to offer. The tour guides/managers, Vutha and Hoang, were both fantastic and extremely knowledgeable, all the hotels were excellent and the food all very good, if a bit repetitive and too plentiful at lunchtimes. A very busy full-on tour with very little relaxation time, but everything ran like clockwork and we were never kept waiting long for the coach or food or anything, which allowed us to see so many lovely things in the short time we were there.

Fabulous holiday- very intense with little down time but packed so much in plus a few extras. Both Cambodia & Vietnam guides were superb and very knowledgeable.

Mostly very positive
Thiep, the guide in Vietnam, was excellent.
The guide in Laos was good. The guide in Cambodia was very pleasant but left me behind when I gave way to a large group of children so I visited Angkor Wat, the main reason for my booking the tour, mostly on my own.
A more central location in Luang Prabang would have been appreciated - to be able to relax in the town
The Vietnam airlines booking was a big mix up with the wrong data inserted for one passenger. So early choice of seats was not possible. More info on alternative flights at the booking stage would have been helpful as we would have preferred to arrive in HCM not Hanoi.

‘Around Cambodia’ This was an excellent tour giving insight to Cambodia’s past and present. The itinerary was very well organised, involving visits to temples and sites of interest, plus visiting and learning the processes of producing pepper, pottery and rice paper, to name a few. With a sunset cruise, cocktails at sky bars, cycle and tuk tuk rides all organised for us, we were a very fortunate group of tourists.
The hotels were all extremely comfortable with very good facilities and friendly staff. The restaurants for lunches and dinners were very well chosen, I do not think we could have found such wonderful places ourselves.
Our kind and thoughtful guide Vuttha Dam, aka Ta and driver Kea helped to make this a most memorable holiday.

A fabulous tour of Cambodia & Vietnam which was a great & varied experience on many levels. The local guides were amazing sharing their own personal experiences and keeping us all informed on the history and traditions relevant to the countries. They were both constantly ensuring the group were happy and aware of arrangements to keep us on track. The choice of hotels, coaches & their drivers and restaurants were all of a very high standard. The whole experience was definitely inline with the commitments made in the brochure.

This was an amazing trip, filled with all of the things you would want to explore in Cambodia and Vietnam. It is more of an overview than a deeper exploration but was great to experience so many wonderful places.
I would have given 5 stars but felt that the food let the trip down. There was a lot of food and mainly the quality was great but there was far too much food served at each meal, 4 courses for lunch and then the same for dinner. There was not a lot of variation in the menus and this was disappointing not to experience the vibrant culnerary experiences of both countries.
Both guides were great, especially Ky in Vietnam who quietly went above and beyond.
As a single traveller I was disappointed not to have been offered one of the "better" rooms on occasions, especially when I had paid more than most of the couples.
That said the whole trip was a gorgeous experience and one that I am still processing as there was so much I saw. I met wonderful people on the trip and the experiences will stay with me a lifetime.
I would have no hesitation in booking with Wendy Wuu again.
