Record Agent Demand Sparks Wendy Wu Tours’ Biggest-Ever India & Central Asia Collection

#Traveltradetogether

With bucket-list enquiries surging to record levels and agents reporting the strongest demand in over a decade, Wendy Wu Tours has unveiled its biggest-ever India & Central Asia 2026/27 portfolio. The expanded collection introduces three blockbuster tours — Southern India & Sri Lanka, Best of Mongolia, and Beyond the Brahmaputra — alongside a line-up of bestselling favourites. Fuelled by soaring consumer appetite for longer, more immersive journeys, the launch is backed by exclusive offers including savings of up to £500 per person, Partner Flies Free deals and solo traveller specials — giving agents the ultimate edge to cash in on this extraordinary boom.

To meet this appetite for adventurous touring, Wendy Wu Tours has expanded its portfolio for 2026 and 2027 with three spectacular debuts. Southern India & Sri Lanka (16 days from £4,540) is a sensory feast combining Kerala’s tranquil backwaters, the ancient cities of Kandy and Polonnaruwa, and the golden sands of Galle. Best of Mongolia (15 days from £5,490) invites travellers to embrace nomadic life on the vast steppe, from the dramatic Gobi Desert to the legendary Naadam Festival. Meanwhile, Beyond the Brahmaputra (18 days from £6,090) pioneers a journey into Northeast India, with tea plantations, tribal cultures, and a cruise along the mighty Brahmaputra River.

Alongside these headline debuts, the brochure bursts with flagship favourites and bestselling journeys that continue to capture travellers’ imaginations. Inspiring India (14 days from £2,290) is a sweeping epic across Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and Varanasi, showcasing India’s Golden Triangle and sacred Ganges. The ever-popular Taj, Temples & Tigers (10 days from £1,990) combines the majesty of the Taj Mahal and the holy city of Khajuraho with thrilling tiger safaris in Ranthambore. For those seeking the spiritual heights of the Himalayas, Himalayan Kingdoms (24 days from £7,690) delivers an awe-inspiring trilogy through Bhutan, Nepal, and Tibet, rich with monasteries, mountains, and mystical culture.

The Central Asia collection shines with equal brilliance. Georgia, Armenia & Azerbaijan (23 days from £5,890)charts a fascinating path through the Caucasus, with wine valleys, medieval monasteries, and the Silk Road crossroads of Baku. Ultimate Uzbekistan (12 days from £3,490) brings Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva vividly to life with turquoise-domed mosques and caravanserai heritage, while the grand Journey Through Central Asia (27 days from £7,490) stretches across five countries — Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan — offering one of the most ambitious Silk Road adventures on the market.

The new brochure also demonstrates the diversification of Wendy Wu Tours’ collection beyond its core escorted group tours. For 2026/27, the portfolio now includes Cruise & Tour holidays, such as India by Land, Southeast Asia by Sea, as well as River Cruise & Tour, Tailormade and Private Touring options. Agents can also capitalise on a wide choice of Short Stays and Stopovers, including popular new extensions to Sri Lanka and Dubai.

To celebrate the launch, Wendy Wu Tours has released a series of exclusive agent offers across the India & Central Asia collection, including savings of up to £500 per person, Partner Flies Free deals, and special solo traveller offers. These promotions are designed not only to provide outstanding value to customers but also to give agents a powerful sales hook and competitive edge.

Gary King, Head of Trade Sales at Wendy Wu Tours, commented:

“Demand has gone off the scale — and we’ve built this collection to help agents cash in. With three brand-new tours and unbeatable launch offers, this brochure is designed to convert record enquiries into real bookings. Add in our iconic bestsellers, fully inclusive pricing, and award-winning guides, and it’s a game-changer for agents and their customers alike.”

The India & Central Asia 2026/27 brochure is available now. All tours feature Wendy Wu Tours’ renowned fully inclusive value, regional UK departures, visa service, and award-winning national guides.
