Jolly good!

This is a review of the Wendy Wu Grand India Tour which was approximately 30 days, and undertaken in October 2025.
The tour certainly covered a huge range of amazing sights and included some wonderful experiences that would be very difficult to arrange as an individual. In fact, as an ex-travel agent I simply wouldn't attempt to book a journey of this intensity for my wife and self in India.
There was a good mixture of transport types - plane, train, coach, camel, boat, etc which made it extra interesting.
Accommodation was of a good standard ranging from extremely good - historic old forts to fairly average Hotel in Mumbai.
All meals were provided, usually as a buffet. Lunches and dinners were all options of Indian dishes, so best that you enjoy Indian food.
Probably one of the real highlights of the trip for us was our Guide "M K" who you could see was genuinely interested in making sure that the group experienced the very best of India and went out of his way to ensure that every person in the group (14 of us) was well looked after and that we gained as much knowledge of India as was possible in 4 weeks.

a great experience with a lot packed in over seven days. the guides we had on the tour were wonderful.

From start to finish the arrangements were impeccable. The guides were all attentive and you got great service. Accommodation and food was excellent too.

Friendly and helpful advice about our holiday booking.

Excellent: knowledgeable, helpful and happy to make changes even once booked. This will be trip no 3, previous two were excellent

Great itinerary, great service from Wendy Wu staff in Australia and a wonderful guide in Japan (Mariko Hirata).

The tour was full-on but delivered on everything I was thinking of. Accommodation was great, destinations and activities were excellent. The daily organisation also managed to avoid heavy tourist numbers at a number of sites and that was much appreciated.

Happy to travel again to Japan and with Wendy Wu, am already planning the next trip.

Fantastic adventurous holiday…so very well arranged with the expertise of Wendy Wu !!!
The guides were of the highest standard with their knowledge and were only too pleased to give us the full history of the sights we visited.

I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone who is thinking of visiting Cambodia and Vietnam. It is good value as all meals and porterage tips are included as well as accommodation and excursions.

Excellent tour !!!!

Superb organisation ,excellent hotels and delicious food in these beautiful and very interesting countries.The group and the tour guides made my holiday a very happy and fun time.
Travel arrangements went well ,only a bit tricky in transfer from Hanoi ,Ho Chi Minh City and Heathrow on my own after Hanoi.Vietnamese people were a great help and messages from people in my group to help me.

Matt was very professional and efficient when dealing with my booking

I love the fact that everything is included, the travel, all our food, tickets into places.
Taken to local restaurants and the food was amazing, every meal I had was delicious. I have coeliac disease and was very anxious that I would be ill as restaurants would not understand but the guide was on top of it making sure at every meal was gluten free.
Very well organised. Local guides where ever we went. Every thing ran smoothly.
There is a lot of travelling. The train journeys were fun and enjoyed with fashion show, food, band and dancing. Loved my time in Peru.

We spent 4 Nights on the Mekong Victoria and it was fabulous. Everything from the decor, to the food and the wonderful staff was 5*. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Vietnam and/or Cambodia. It is the best way to travel between the two countries and an experience not to be missed.

Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide, Kumar Apoorva. It would not have been the same without him. He accompanied us through hotels, trains, airports and local areas with decisiveness and humour. His experience eased our route around local beggars, merchants, customs, tipping and health issues. We visited very memorable and beautiful sites like the Taj Mahal and Shimla and many others, giving history and background and then letting us wander ourselves to take photos and absorb the atmosphere.
As travellers, we thought the hotels were ok but would have chosen ones that were more up-market. The food was nice but we feel, was pitched for the inexperienced or unadventurous palette, so we would have liked more varied local options.
All in all, a fabulous trip through beautiful parts of India, with a lovely group of people.

Great trip, lovely locations, great tour guides.

Especially tender treatment of Kymer Rouge period from our Cambodian guide, Socly.

Cruising on the Mekong was a delight. The crew on the ship were wonderful and the food was especially delicious.

Working with the Wendy Wu team in Sydney was especially easy. They anticipated a lot of our questions and were there with prompt and helpful answers.

What they promised, we got! And good value too, getting breakfast, lunch and dinner each day.

The "Noire" dinner in Saigon was extraordinary. We were a bit nervous about it, but it was a wonderful experience.
