Review for Japan Uncovered
Our guide Kumiko was excellent. Vert knowledgeable, very friendly and great fun. The schedule was a bit hectic but we saw so much of Japan.the lovely countryside and gardens, the castles, temples and shrines as well as the cities. Kumi helped to bring the history alive.
We also went to a miss brewery., a was wasabi farm, a paper making factory and watched a tea ceremony and made and drank our own macha tea! We travelled on the bullet train and also had several boat trips. There are so many marvellous memories. Our group of 28 got on very well aided by the lively Australians.
It was my first experience of Japanese food which I thoroughly enjoyed. Everyone was so friendly and courteous and everywhere was so clean. My granddaughter didn't want to leave and wants to return to Japan in the future.

Review for Scenic South Korea
Alexia was very helpful and knowledgeable. I liked the fact I was informed every step of my booking to the last minute when my ticket and itinerary arrived. Everything about this holiday was great, The scenery was breathtaking. The food was excellent. There was something different to visit and marvel. The Tour Guide was friendly and easy to get on with. I will definitely book with Wendy Tours again. I fell in love with South Korea and I can’t wait to return.

Review for Scenic South Korea
A visit to S. Korea with Wendy Wu was a great shorthand to know a little more and to highlight where to come back to. It’s a fascinating place with an incredible history. The tour was well organised with a joyful guide who made the trip a stress free pleasure. No one can really see a country in two weeks but a trip touching on so many sides of the place was a great way to get a feel of it and feel confident enough to go again independently. I would go again after this trip and also I’d use Wendy Wu Tours again to see other countries to get a feel for if I’d return.

Review for Off-Beat Japan
Our guide was lovely and helpful. Tour was very full on but we got to see so much in a relatively short space of time.

Review for Journey through Japan
The tour guide Mariko handled this mixed group of 26 from three different countries extremely well.
Setting up a WhatsApp group from Day 1 with names and photos of all participants worked really well. It enabled the group to ‘gel’ quickly and gave a clear outline of times, activities etc.
The days were action packed, which meant that we were able to see and experience life in Japan as it really is. The downside was that little time was available in the evenings to enjoy the excellent hotels and facilities.
Of outstanding value was Grand Nico in Tokyo where we were all upgraded.
We were pleased to learn when we booked the holiday that all meals would be provided. We wouldn’t want to change this. However, there was a downside. Most restaurants (mid day and evening) provided basically the same food. Hence by the second week our diet was much the same, with a lot of raw fish (not to everyone’s taste)! We only had one buffet meal and that was in the evening. So a greater choice of food would have suited us better.

Review for Classic China
We had a great tour with Wendy Wu. Our ******, Ivy was excellent. She was always ready to help, especially with our vegetarian diet. Our group bonded very well, which made it more enjoyable.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
Excellent. The itinerary was busy but that meant you saw a great deal and experienced so much of what Turkey has to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable, informative, approachable and kind. Our group was made up of ‘seasoned travellers’ so everyone was aware of being on time which was important given the number of hotel changes on the tour. Would definitely recommend and use Wendy Wu as a tour operator again if this trip is representative of their experience and organisational skills which were first class.
