Fantastic - this tour covered so much in a short time. We were quite apprehensive after our initial planning of the holiday. The visa requirements changed & the London office of Wendy Woo gave us conflicting advice. We had nothing to worry about once we left Heathrow. From the moment our National Guide, Ivan met us at Beijing airport we didn't have to worry about anything as he faultlessly saw to our party's every need. He worked very very hard to give us all the most wonderful holiday in his country. We could not have done it without him! We enjoyed an early morning visit to the Great Wall -,something we shall never forget, a morning at the Terracotta Warriors museum, 2 Panda conservation centres plus 4 evening shows. The local guides were also informative with walking tours of several towns, palaces & parks. The food was plentiful and experienced in many differing restaurants giving us a taste of the local cuisine. Our plane journeys were well organised as was our trip on the bullet train - all thanks to Ivan who must have worked tirelessly behind the scenes. We had a good mix of people on the tour & Ivan really was our guide in a million. He was great!
An amazing trip! If you want to make the most out of a trip to China, this is the way to do it. Our national guide, Ivan, could not have been more helpful, patient and informative. We saw so much in a relatively short amount of time, including the Great Wall, Terracotta Warriors and giant pandas. The local guides (Alice, Lee and Fen) were also all very informative and helpful. The trip was seamless from start to finish. I definitely recommend a Wendy Wu tour - ideally with Ivan, he was brilliant.
Yes Amanda the National guide treated us like family .
My wife is Anaphylaxis to LUPIN we only found out 4 weeks before we left we were told by the staff at Wendy Wu office that this would be no problem as the tour guide would make sure the food was safe and she did even to the point she would have a special meal for my wife if she was not sure.
We had a wonderful holiday thanks to Wendy Wu Tours and Thank You Amanda

We have recently completed the Wendy Wu Glories of China tour and it exceeded all expectations. The service provided to us by our National Escort Grace Gaw was exceptional. From day one her knowledge and love of her home country China was evident. Her amazing knowledge and insight into Chinese history and culture made our tour absolutely amazing. The diversity of activities on our trip was fantastic. Our first stop was Shanghai where we were treated to attractions such as the beautiful Yu Gardens, a walk on the Bund to see where the old meets the new. Then an evening river cruise to witness the spectacular lights of Shanghai at night. A visit to the ancient water town Zhujiajiao was a glimpse into China's history.Our next major stop was Guilin with its beautiful lake and amazing Sun and Moon pagodas. Next we were off on a river cruise on the Li River to Yangshou seeing the picturesque karst peaks along the way. We were then taken to a small farming village to experiece everyday farm life of the locals. Such diversity within our tour made it so much more memorable. The wonders of Xian with its ancient history and the Terracotta Warriors is unforgettable. Finishing in Beijing and marveling at The Great Wall, The Forbidden City, The Summer Palace and Tenanmen Square finished the best tour we could have imagined. All accommodation was of a very high standard and centrally located. Wendy Wu offered several optional tours which were well worth the extra cost and most times due to the Wendy Wu name our tickets were upgraded. Each city had its own Local Guide in addition to your National Guide who offered additional information on each area.Our first 3 local guides , Grace, John and Grace were excellent with only our last guide in Beijing not so informative which was our only disappointment.. We will definitely travel with Wendy Wu again if travelling to other countries. Once again thanks to Grace Gaw our national escort. China you did not disappoint.
Recently returned from a 2 week tour starting in Shanghai, then flying to Guilin, Xian and taking the bullet train to Beijing. It was a group of 13 on an all inclusive tour. The whole trip was fantastic, with a great itinerary which made sure we packed in a lot of experiences without it being too exhausting, staying in 4 & 5 star hotels and with fresh, locally cooked food organised for us. We were accompanied throughout by a National escort called David Zhao who was an excellent guide; warm, funny and knowledgeable. He made sure our experience was unforgettable and could not have done more to make us feel looked after. We also had local guides in every city that were friendly and mines of information. We would not hesitate to recommend this trip, and Wendy Wu Tours, who made the booking procedure straightforward, helped us to apply for our visas, and provided us with plenty of pre-trip information to make sure that we got the most out of our experience.
I have just returned from a wonderful 14 day with Wendy Wu where we went from one side of China to another which included a 4 day cruise on the Yangtze river.
Beijing, The Great Wall, Terracotta Warriors,viewing the Pandas ,the wonderful sites of Shanghai including the light show on the Bing are memories which shall remain with me for ever.The wonderful people who shared this trip with me was great as well. Our group was made up of 26 in total and each and everyone of us got on fabulously well.
The lynch pin to the whole tour was having such a wonderful and engaging Tour Guide in Addison; his smiling face each day and catering to all of our individual needs was truly amazing.Traveling in China can be extremely challenging obviously with the language barrier & all the security of going to so many places.
Having Addison on hand took away any potential stressful situations and allowed us to fully enjoy our holiday.
