Review for Angkor to the Bay
I don’t know where to start other than with the word ‘exceptional’ my expectations were high from the pre tour support and interactions with Wendy Wu operational support however nothing could have prepared me for the care, professionalism and value that met me on tour! SOKHOEUN in Cambodia and HOI in Vietnam were amazing tour guides their vulnerability, insight and care was outstanding and gave such a warmth to the tour and depth of knowledge, alongside first hand experiences of their lives, families and history of the places. The write up wets your appetite, however every single day there was so much more, food, fun, stories, personal interactions - so hard to capture in a review however even the toughest of critics would struggle to find fault with the content! Catering for the needs of the group from food to mobility was always top of mind and carried out to the letter. The events / extras were such fun! Shows, boats, tuk tuks, craft demos, rooftop cocktails all executed with precision and so many laughs - for 16 days “we were family” and thank you all @ wendywu for a job well done! I will be back and 5 stars is not enough!

Review for Inspiring India
Our tour of India was very well organised allowing us to easily see some of the great sights of India. Our tour guide was especially helpful, very well informed and was able to pass on the genuine fell of India. Thanks for a great holiday.

Review for Wonders of China
Best tour holiday we had. There is always room for improvement. Just a couple of suggestions:
1. Before flying would suggest to let know meeting time with the tour guide at the hotel.
2. Coaches to have a facility to charge a mobile phone.
3. A separate table for vegetarians as there is a big demand for them to travel to China. Non-vegetarians do not share vegetarian dishes.
Had a great holiday!

Review for Glories of China
As i write this review, i am very well aware that this is only my opinion ~ however, i genuinely enjoyed every single aspect of my visit to China 🇨🇳 👍. When i arrived in Shanghai, i had approximately 30 minutes waiting for my driver. Looking back to this comment, i am in a different country, not knowing anyone or the language, but it is so clean and people are everywhere, so i knew that i had no problems or issues with anything. I was not anxious or worried about anything & this was my only issue in two weeks, so i will reiterate that my trip was absolutely amazing. The hotels, the tourist guides, the internal connections (both flights and train) were easy and stress free. Not only did i enjoy this trip, i can both recommend it & even do it again 👍. All of the excursions were amazing and we were able to jump the queues every time. The guides were helpful, knowledgeable and friendly, so communication was not a problem either 👍.

Review for Jewels of Japan
We had a fantastic time - we arrived in Tokyo after spending 3 days in Hong Kong and met up with the group. The meal at the Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel that evening was horrible - the chicken legs were undercooked and several people had to send their food back to the kitchen. However, after that meal everything was fantastic. Our guide was Hiro who was excellent. We saw some amazing things and Hiro was so informative and told us about so many things. Mount Fuji and Hiroshima were particularly memorable although everywhere we went to was worth visiting. We all had lanyards with cards with our names on and on the back was a message in Japanese for us to show someone in the event we got lost - which proved invaluable during a couple of incidents when we had free time and a couple of people asked someone to contact Hiro - who went to find them. Having said that, Hiro was always checking we were all there! The coaches taking us from A to B were comfortable, so were the bullet trains. We were all issued with “whispers” with headphones so we could hear what Hiro was telling us. We specifically chose to go on this trip during the cherry blossom season - I was expecting pinker and more blossom and so, if I were to go again, I wouldn’t choose to go at the same time as the blossom as it attracts crowds of people and I don’t think it’s worth visiting when there are extra people there. Making the soba noodles was fun as well as making an origami crane - and we enjoyed the tea ceremony. The food was amazing and a real mixture - forks were always available for people who struggled with chopsticks. Some of the food we cooked ourselves. I’m not sure the Japanese had grasped some of the dietary requirements but my only request was that I didn’t have anything too spicy and the food I was served with was perfect for me. There were a lot of steps but, the brochure did warn that there were a lot of steps so I was expecting this. There was a lot of walking but, again, the brochure did warn about this and the itinerary tells you how long to expect to be on your feet. There were 26 people in our group ages ranging from 40s to 80s - we all got on really well. Now, back at home, I’ve got the task of choosing the best photos from the ones my husband and I took to have a book printed to take and show all our friends!
