Review for Grand Tour of China
I should start with mentioning Frank, our tour guide, who was excellent in not only acting as a shepherd with his "flock" but was extremely knowledgable about places visited and ever so helpful when problems arose such as sickness, emergencies, hospital visits, medication etc. Always patient, good natured and a great sense of humour. This was a once in a lifetime trip and the destinations visited fulfilled all our desires - Xian, Beijing, Dali, Kunming, Yangtze river, Chongqing, ChengDu, Guillin, Yangshuo, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and Hong Kong! It truly was stunning and unforgettable, and exhausting! This tour requires a good degree of fitness as there will be substantial walking involved. It also involves a high degree of transport and frequent packing / unpacking between accommodations. If there was one criticsm I would have to make, it would be able to spend more "me time" in some of the destinations even if this reduces the itinerary.

Vishal was wonderful and had an answer for every question.
He looked after all of us above and beyond expectations.
Our group of 17 was just the right amount.
Hotels and food were great.

Review for Treasures of South America
The holiday of a lifetime and the best holiday I have ever had. Peru - the Andes, Machu Picchu, Lamas and Alpacas, Chocolate and Pisco Sour, Lake Titicaca and Floating Islands. Buenos Aires - Tango lessons, Gauchos and horse riding. Rio de Janiero - Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf Mountain, Copacabana Beach, Carnival experience and Samba. The Iguaza Falls were amazing with the option to view them by helicopter and boat - brilliant experiences. Learning about the different cultures and history was fascinating and visiting Indigenous families and sampling their ancient rituals was a privilege. Al the places visited were fantastic and I cannot pick out a favourite - they were all brilliant.
The Hotels and food were all excellent. We sampled lots of different restaurants and cuisine. Dinner was usually in a local restaurant and included great entertainment.
Everything was extremely well organised and it all ran very smoothly, we did not have to worry about a thing. Claudio - our guide for the whole tour - was knowledgeable and passionate. He looked after us extremely well, he was pleasant, friendly, caring, thoughtful and extremely efficient. He worked very hard and attended to every detail. In addition to Claudio there were local guides who specialised in a particular area and they were all brilliant too. Transport was always ready and waiting for us, and all the drivers were pleasant, friendly and helpful.
It was full on and fast paced, lots packed in and so as expected very little downtime. I found it all very exciting and in my view if you are going to travel that far you might as well do as much as possible.
We have lots and lots of photos, many happy memories and have made some lovely new friends.
Fantastic experience, brilliant holiday and worth every penny - thank you Wendy Wu.

Review for Japan Uncovered - HN
The whole experience from start to finish was first class. Our tour guide "Hiroko Abe" went above and beyond by including a couple of visits that were not on the tour itinerary.

Booking Experience for Gems of China
Matt was very polite and helpful. He explained everything very clearly. I asked him lots of questions and he was more than happy to answer all my questions. I felt very reassured and well informed.
