We recently finished a 17 day Enchanting China Trip. From the moment we were picked up in Beijing airport to drop-off at Shanghei airport everything was extremely well organised and easy.
We were able to pick and choose optional tours and had downtime as well so not too hectic.
Downloading an e sim and alipay before getting to China made communication and payment simple as was getting cash from ATM at recommended banks.
China was great to visit , made especially enjoyable by our fantastic guide George Pu . He was well organised and kept our group of 17-Brits,Australians and Kiwis on track and had a wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of his homeland. Our local guides Mi, Penny and Darcy added to the experience in their respective cities.
Overall a great experience and would thoroughly recommend to anyone visiting China for the first time.

To Whom It May Concern
Ref: Goes-UKQ932272 China May 8th
I was part of the above group who travelled to China with Wendy Wu tours and I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for Alison Li, who served as our National Escort during our tailor-made tour of China organised by Wendy Wu Tours.
Our group consisted of ten travellers, all in our seventies — four couples and two friends — and from the very moment Alison met us at Beijing Airport, she made us feel completely at ease. Within minutes of arriving at our first hotel, the Fairmont Beijing, she had already won us over with her warmth, enthusiasm, and genuine care for every member of our group.
Over the course of our remarkable journey — taking in Beijing, Xi’an, Chengdu, Chongqing, Zhangjiajie, Guilin, Yangzhou, Hangzhou, Suzhou, and Shanghai — Alison was with us every step of the way. She ensured that every detail was perfectly arranged, from dinner reservations on our very first evening to seamless transfers throughout the entire tour. Nothing was ever too much trouble.
What truly sets Alison apart is her personality. She is gregarious, attentive, and wonderfully caring — qualities that transformed a group of ten individuals into a family. She brought China to life for us, not just as a professional guide, but as a genuine ambassador for her country and its culture. We laughed together, explored together, and felt completely safe and looked after throughout.
Alison is, without question, one of the finest guides any of us have ever had the pleasure of travelling with. She is a tremendous credit to Wendy Wu Tours, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Any group fortunate enough to travel with Alison is in the very best of hands.
Yours sincerely,
Dinesh Patel

Our tour guide, Louis was excellent. We had a very well organised tour and enjoyed it throroughly. We saw so many sights and enjoyed sampling the various Chinese dishes from all the regions we travelled in.

We have just returned from an outstanding Enchanting China tour. Beijing, Xian, ,Chengdu and Shanghai, huge cities with fascinating histories, modern skyscrapers, and linked by bullet trains, left us amazed. But the tour would not have been the same without our superb tour guide, George Pu, whose knowledge, sense of humour and dedication tour members' welfare we will never forget. Highly recommended.

Wendy Wu - Tibetan Railroad - Mt Everest
The 17‑day Wendy Wu tour of China, Tibet and Mt Everest was exceptionally well organised, with the itinerary carefully planned so that those of us not accustomed to high altitude could adjust comfortably. China and Tibet were truly eye‑opening — remarkable places that challenged many of our assumptions as Western travellers.
Our local guide, Addison, made the entire journey even more enjoyable. His knowledge, warmth and ability to explain the history and rapid development across the regions we visited gave us a much deeper understanding of what we were seeing.
The tour is easily a five‑star experience, as is the wonderful 10‑minute video Addison created from the trip. Overall, we had a fabulous time.
Well done Addison.

Everything about the tour was really well organised, including 2 late alterations to our internal connecting flights into & out of China.
the National Tour guide, Nick, was with us from start to finish and did a fantastic job of involving everyone in the group and keeping us all well informed.
the local guides were also very good and informative.
if anything there was too much food!!
The only minor criticism was that on most of the days there was little time to change before dinner so we were in the same clothes all day!

Just back from an amazing and enjoyable group tour of China 🇨🇳 and Japan 🇯🇵. It did what it said in the tin - we saw everything on the list.
In China, George was a fabulous guide, great knowledge and commentary and a really nice guy - nothing was too much trouble- couldn’t have been better.
The same could be said of Hiroshi in Japan , who went out of his way to make our trip so enjoyable- luck not on our side when the only day of bad weather forced cancellation of Lough Ashi cruise and cable car but he substituted the Art Museum and the famous Tokyo Shibuya scramble crossing.
In addition the local guides were all excellent and entertaining.
We also enjoyed the fact that we had a lovely group of people with us and got on so well together.
Personally we would have liked a few longer breaks, especially to settle into each new hotel but appreciate the fact that it was a once- off trip and the aim was to cover as much as possible in 19 days !
Thoroughly recommend Wendy Wu for China and Japan - thanks so much again to George and Hiroshi for making it the trip of a lifetime !

Wonders of China trip May 26 with Wendy Wu was amazing. China itself is a fascinating country to visit. The organisation of the trip was perfect. Our guides were informative about the history and culture of China. A big shout out to Addison, 5* is not enough. To Linda , Oscar and all our other guides who made the trips a wonderful experience. We will definitely travel with Wendy Wu again in the future.

This trip to China was due to our knowledgeable guide who was on top of everything. All the things we saw and experienced were beyond expectations. So well organised and great deal of thought in planning. We could never have done all this on our own. Lovely mixture of people too.

Extremely well organised tour with a very knowledgeable guide, Babur. We saw everything we were expecting to see in Uzbekistan plus the extra experiences that added a much appreciated local culture touch.

Reply from Wendy Wu Tours
The tour was great due to having a fantastic tour guide in Addison, the most handsome man in China!! We also had a great group of travellers on tour which also added to the experience being wonderful. Our tour The Wonders Of China was also value added by having great local guides providing valuable knowledge of the sights we visited so well done to them. The highlights were many but in particular the boat trip down the Yangtze, the Great Wall and the marvellous Terracotta Warriors great to have experienced these highlights of China. Now a little more about our amazing guide who was also a highlight, his humour, insights about Chinese culture, incredible organisation and genuine care of all to ensure we all got the best out of the trip was greatly appreciated. All the best Addison and you never know we may be back and our paths may cross again, lets hope so!! Regards John [Alan] and Jocelyn Chadwick

We travelled to India with Wendy Wu Tours and overall the trip was a mixed experience. India itself was fascinating and full of incredible sights, but there were definitely some aspects of the tour that fell well below expectations, especially considering this was a five-figure holiday.
The biggest disappointment was the food. Much of it was repetitive, often lukewarm, and lacked quality considering the premium price paid for the tour. After a while, meal times became something to endure rather than enjoy.
The hotels were average at best. Some were clean and acceptable, but many felt tired, dated, and clearly chosen to keep costs down rather than provide a quality experience for guests. When you are paying this kind of money, you expect far better accommodation standards.
Transport was another major let-down. The coach was old, uncomfortable, and extremely bumpy on long journeys. It certainly did not feel like a modern touring coach with proper air suspension. On India’s rough roads this made travelling exhausting, and again it felt like corners had been cut to maximise profit rather than comfort for customers.
It was disappointing because the itinerary itself was very good, but it became obvious where savings were being made — mainly on hotels and transport — despite the high overall cost of the holiday.
The one thing that truly made the trip worthwhile was our guide, who was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable, organised, and endlessly patient, he brought the history and culture of India to life and genuinely cared about the group having a good experience. Without him, the tour would have been far less enjoyable. I was planning to book tours to China as well as Japan with Wendy Wu, but no chance now.

Wonders of China
My friend Jackie and I returned last week from a 2 week Wonders of China trip. I can only repeat all the glowing and eloquent reviews given here by Stuart Steva Damien Jacqueline and Carly. We were a lovely group of 27 people from England Ireland Scotland Australia and New Zealand. Our guide Addison was exceptional in all the ways mentioned. He went out of his way to help us all in so many different ways including arranging a battery pack to be delivered to me on day one. The local guides were all very knowledgeable too. The trip was very full on, which is not a criticism, we fitted in so many things. You can sleep when you get home was our mantra. Addison chose lots of interesting restaurants and dishes for us all. I highly recommend Wendy Wu tours and will be looking at their brochure for our next long haul trip. Big up Addison and Wendy Wu.

Excellent tour of China. The guides were outstanding, especially our lead guide Andy. High standard hotels and food. We saw everything we had hoped to see and more,

Reply from Wendy Wu Tours
Andy has been an outstanding ambassador for Wendy Wu, and should be an example to all guides. Kathy and Jennifer were also fantastic local guides, very engaging. This has been a fantastic first touring holiday for us, we were spoilt by having a such lovely group. China has been a wonderful place to visit and cannot recommend it high enough.

Reply from Wendy Wu Tours
Top tour Andy bought and kept the group together with good humour and helpfulness
Both Cathy and Jennifer were ideal local guides
Andy should be retained by Wendy wu as a model guide for all future guides to learn from
