Southern China Scenic Getaway

Welcome to Wendy Wei Tours

The concept of Wendy Wei Tours actually started in the summer of 2005 when I first began guiding visitors who were traveling to Guilin. I was a trainee tour guide but quickly learnt two very important things.

Many visitors didn't want to just visit famous attractions but also experience a different culture;

Most visitors didn't want to waste their time visiting various 'shopping stops'

During this time, whilst guiding for various different agencies, I actually began to feel sorry for these clients who were directly expressing to me their feelings of wanting to do something different to the standard tours. They were longing to taste local cuisine, travel to local families houses and visit off the beaten track places but were unable to due to the language barrier and fact that no other agencies offered these types of unique experiences.

I raised these points to various managers of the different agencies I was contracting for, assuming they'd be interested in exploring the opportunities to offer unique type  of tours to differentiate themselves. To my shock, they completely dismissed the idea and advised that all visitors were happy with the same tour routes they've proposed.  A few months later, after receiving encouragement from a number of visitors (thank you!). I thought to myself that non-forced shopping tours would also suit me as I'm not a very good saleslady and didn't feel comfortable with the whole commission/forced shopping model employed across the industry. Thereafter, I listed my details on a guiding website and went completely freelance until the opportunity became available to start 'Wendy Wei Tours' under the Tianli International Travel Service tour company license. All Wendy Wei Tours are proudly without any forced shopping stops or other unscrupulous practices - no 'ifs', 'buts' or 'excuses'!
