I had an amazing 2 week trip to China in April 2026 with Wendy Wu Tours where I managed to visit all the highlights guided by Yang Tao who is a very experienced and knowledgeable guide. His vast experience was evident as he knew the right times to go to the main attractions like the Terracotta Warriors and the Great Wall to avoid the vast crowds. He also provided support throughout the trip and nothing was too much trouble for him. This was my first escorted group tour and the whole process with Wendy Wu Tours was seamless. On returning home I immediately booked another tour with them to India. I can’t speak highly enough of Yang and Wendy Wu Tours.

Had a great booking experience with Joe. He was very knowledgeable about the tours I was looking at and gave good advice to pick the right one for my needs.

Excellent tour extremely well organised knowledgeable tour guides

Vanessa was outstanding and helped me professionally and effectively with the booking

An amazingly full schedule for 16 days. Saw China's amazing historic sites. Tour guide was excellent. Would travel with Wendy Wu again.

Very helpful nothing was too much trouble. The tour was explained perfectly. Katie my assistant was just lovely and got back to me promptly with any questions I had.
Would definitely recommend travelling with WendyWu tours and I plan to travel with them again in the future.

They explain everything in simple terms, nothing is too much trouble for them. This is my 3rd Wendy Wu tour but only the 2nd I have booked directly through them. Absolutely amazing, friendly staff. I recommend these tours to my friends.

An excellent tour that covered a lot of ground in such a short timescale. Very well organised too.

Our guide Qui was brilliant as well as professional and very funny, which brightened up the journey. Nothing was too much trouble, and he went the extra mile.

Hotels were nice and comfortable and I thoroughly enjoyed trying the food and different flavours.

I can definitely recommend the tour.

Both tours had excellent national guides and wonderful tours experiences. The coaches were reasonably comfortable but we were disappointed that the coach windows in China were not clean. The hotels in China were normally 4 star whereas in Japan most were 3 star. The China tour was more strenuous and fast paced.

Fabulous company Mina was an amazing guide. The chance to look around the sights by yourself after good explanation. Good hotels and food . Opened my eyes to Japan and planning to return. Now thinking of booking China with them next year.

Japan Uncovered was an excellent and well organised tour and Akiko our guide was superb. Only comments would be for more evening entertainment and a few more Western food options for those who do not like fish or tofu.
Gems of China was again an excellent and well organised tour and the options for evening shows gave a the trip a fuller program. CiCi our guide was fabulous and the local guides also added to the whole experience, will recommend both tours to family and friends.
Thankyou Wendy Wu for anther fabulous experience and interesting trip and your Office staff were excellent with sorting out all the questions we had prior to arrival in Japan & China.

I was met at the airport and taken to the hotel without fuss. I joined my longer tour the next day and I did not have access to the tour guide but the hotel was well situated and it was easy to walk around and settle in before the tour.

Really enjoyed this tour! A good mixture of cities, countryside and wildlife. So many highlights on this trip although if I had to pick I would say the Cameron Highlands, the wildlife of Borneo and the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. The food was good and varied. The weather was hot & humid so be prepared clothes wise. I purposefully brought longer trousers as the itinerary said to dress conservatively however shorts of a decent length were perfectly fine for most places & our guide would highlight where longer trousers were needed the day prior (only the Batu Caves as I remember). I was glad I brought the longer trousers for Borneo though to avoid the pesky mosquitos (also bring bug spray). Also, definitely take a change of clothes for the river cruise in Kota Kinabalu in case of a sudden downpour as it's a 2 hour coach ride back to the hotel which is not pleasant in damp clothes.

I would highlight that this tour has a physical rating of level 1. For me (as some aged in my 30's with a good level of fitness) I would classify it as a level 2 given the heat & humidity along with the intensity of some of the walks with a lot of stairs and uneven ground! Just something to bear in mind when considering this tour as the general consensus in my group was that it was A LOT more physically demanding that any of us expected. This includes people on their 2nd, 3rd, 4th. . . Wendy Wu tour.

The tour only includes one day in Singapore. Given the amount of things to see in this incredible city I think it would be worthwhile staying for an extra night or two if possible.

Overall I would definitely recommend this tour! Had a fantastic two weeks with a brilliant group of people. Thank you to our wonderful guides - especially Kugan in Peninsular Malaysia and Kurt in Borneo - if you are lucky enough to have these guides in the future you're in good hands!

It was the usual Wendy Wu experience. Full on and covered a lot.
Accommodation was great and hotel catering was good. However, some of the external eateries left something to be desired. The street food experience was not great and the last meal in Singapore left a few of us unwell.
