Onmulti-country trips this amount will bepaid in stages on arrival in each country.For tours with fewer than 10 passengers,tipping will be slightly higher than statedon the Group Tour pages. 10Your experience takes off hereYour flights are an important part of your Wendy Wu Tours experience, which is why we only work with scheduledairlines with the best reputations forservice, reliability and punctuality.
