NEW Wendy WU Deluxe Tours from $999 Business Class Upgrade

Wendy Wu Tours have released its 2017 brochure featuring a selection of new tours to experience China, India, Indochina and Japan with an incredible launch offer.

Following the success of its inaugural Deluxe Brochure last year, the ‘champagne moments’ Wendy Wu Tours offers its customers ensures each traveler has, according to General Manager Andrew Mulholland, “a taste of luxury.”

“This offer epitomizes what the Deluxe Collection is all about – ‘champagne moments,’ Mulholland said. “It allows customers the chance to experience a luxurious holiday from the minute they step out their front door until they return home inclusive of business class travel with an award-winning airline.”

He added that the range of once-in-a-lifetime experiences, many of which are exclusive to Wendy Wu Tours, means “this product range positions itself as an ideal upsell to our classic touring range.”

The value and quality of Wendy Wu’s new tours and independent programs are exceptional, as clients who book a selected deluxe tour to either China, Indochina or Japan can upgrade to business class return with Singapore Airlines from only $999 per person, as well as receive complimentary airport private car transfers and lounge access.

Offers are on sale until December 16, unless sold out prior.

Active Travel is offering Australians a rare opportunity to visit both North and South Korea.

A unique chance to view both North and South Korea from the famous Demilitarized Zone that divides both nations, the two vastly different countries will be an out-of-the-box destination for any intrepid Aussie explorer.

With Beijing as a starting point, the 16-day tour will provide unique insight into Korean history and current world events.

Highlights of the visit to North Korea include seeing the 22-metre-high bronze statues of Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-il, as well as the elaborate mausoleum where their bodies lie, hiking up the scenic Mount Myohyang, exploring the extensive Ryongmun cave network with its underground rivers and strange rock formations, and visiting the International Friendship Exhibition – where gifts from foreigners to North Korean leaders are stored. And more!
