Wendy Wu Tours Review:
"Just thought I would drop you a quick email and let you know that I had a fantastic time on the tour – couldn’t fault anything and just loved it... have to plan the next one soon.
The itinerary was really well organised, and we had plenty of variety and enough time in each location.... as always, I would like to stay longer in some, but overall it certainly gave you a great overview of each area.
The accommodation and coaches were great and the time we spent on Halong Bay was magical, and couldn’t fault our tour guides.
Thank you again."

Wendy Wu Tours Review:
"This is my second tour with Wendy Wu Tours and I cannot speak highly enough her company. I did Wonders of China, 28 days and now Angkor to the Bay. Both were excellent value for money. Our guide in Vietnam, Nguyen Hung was the most pleasant and helpful guide I have encountered. His humour was an added bonus. His knowledge of the history of his country surpassed my expectations by far. He, along with Wendy Wu Tours made my holiday most enjoyable and memorable – never to be forgotten."
