MANUEL MASCARENHAS managing director UK Wendy Wu “Vietnam is a unique
country, where traditions that are thousands of years old are still alive and respected. Wendy Wu Tours offers a local insight into Vietnam’s culture through our highly knowledgeable guides. Fully-inclusive prices make budgeting easy and agents’ commission is on the full cost of the holiday. We also provide sales support, training, point-of- sale collateral (including the new easy selling guide for agents) and help host customer evenings. Our annual agent road show will start in September 2012 – and we host regular fam trips."
