If planning a trip to China or Southeast Asia then take a look at Wendy Wu’s tours. They are celebrating a 40 per cent increase in bookings by launching a Discovery Tour collection.
The 16 itineraries take guests off the beaten track showing the real China and Southeast Asia. You can visit a less busy section of the Great Wall, ride a tuk tuk through Angkor Wat and see pandas in the more authentic and natural surroundings of the Bifengxia Panda Reserve.
Wendy Wu also has a great flight offer but be quick – you can upgrade to business class for £99 – for tours booked before September 30.
The itineraries across China, Tibet, Mongolia, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia range from 10 to 28 days. They include:
