AUGood responsive tour operator but tour had issues We did a tour from Buenos Aries to Rio via Iguassu Falls. It started and finished well but Iguassu was a major mess and then the first hotel in Rio was very substandard. Wanderful flew us to Iguassu into the Argentinian airport which is located close to the Argentine side of the falls. These falls were not included in the base price of the tour but were part of a hefty add on of USD$240+ for Tango night in BA, Argentine falls visit and more plane luggage. The hotel they booked us into was in Brazil and way out in the country side with no amenities nearby and it was nothing special, carpets worn out etc. Whereas there are numerous hotels in the Brazilian town of Foz Iguassu. Wanderful said Foz Iguassu was unsafe which is daft as there were multitudes of people and good hotels in town. All of the above ruined what could have been a great experience. Easily solvable by 1) break the tango, tour, extra luggage option up. Have the Argentinian falls tour from the Argentine Airport on arrival. have a hotel in town not 5km in the country. Then we flew to Rio and got placed in B@B hotel at Wanderful's recommendation. Others who were on the same tour at the same rate were put in the Arena Hotel on Copacabana Beach. B&B was 2 star, dirty and a complete disaster compared the 4 star Arena. Wanderful was very good and upgraded us for two nights to Arena, which made our holiday and for which we are grateful. Wanderful should leave B&B off its list of hotels. Wanderful tried very hard and communicated well and politely to all our issues, but they need to take note of the above and will have better product to sell.

BRBuenos Aires to Rio De Janeiro Great communication with the company and with daily reminders and updates made travel in South America much easier. Plenty of free time to further explore after organised tours with excellent guides. Good quality accommodation in safe and well located areas.

SAGreat Team The team really helped in making everything run smoothly. Thank you so much to Hannah, Lily, Rose, Wendy, Alberto and Sam for all that you did. I was unhappy with one of the hotels that I checked into at night, but the team got me booked into another hotel the next morning. Their quick problem solving was very much appreciated. A short while before my trip, I had requested to add on another country. The team advised me as to what would be the best option and when to add in the additional tour and sorted this out for me without any hassle.

GBWendy and her team did a wonderful job… Wendy and her team did a wonderful job planning our trip! We took a 10-day trip throughout Central Europe: Budapest, Vienna, and Prague. Each city was unique and beautiful! The excursions for each city were well thought out and every transfer was very reliable. The highlight of our trip was a convertible vintage car ride in Prague where we saw the city sites and were provided commentary by the driver. This is something we would not have planned ourselves: pretty special experience! Each hotel was in a good location and outstanding breakfast buffets were included at all hotels. Most impressive was that Wendy and her team checked in on us each and every day and confirmed each tour and transfer in advance each day. This was a fantastic trip that we will remember for a long time! Thank you again Wendy and team!

GBItaly We just got back from an incredible vacation in Italy. We traveled to 4 cities via train and had tours and great experiences the entire way. All of the hotels were fabulous with great locations and beautiful accommodations. The tours were perfect. The team from Wanderful Holidays communicated with us every day to make sure we knew where to go and that everything was going well. Thank you to the entire team (Rose, Wendy, Sam and Alberto) for your expertise and care in planning our memorable and amazing trip.
