First Class Holidays has entered into a partnership with Wendy Wu Tours, which will see it selling the Asia specialist’s holidays to Japan.

It will be the first Asia touring programme for First Class Holidays, which said it will offer an ‘extensive’ portfolio of itineraries.

The tours, available for 2025 and 2026, are a ‘perfect fit’ for First Class Holidays’ clients travelling to and from Australaia, the companies said in a joint statement.

Wendy Wu Head of Trade Sales Gary King said: “We are thrilled to partner with First Class Holidays for the launch of their Japan touring program. 

“Our Japan tours offer the largest range of departure dates and itineraries, ensuring agents can provide their customers with the most comprehensive options on the market. 

“From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene beauty of rural Japan, we’ve designed these tours to showcase the very best of the country. No other operator can match the variety and depth of experiences we offer.”

First Class Holidays Head of Product Lorna Curry added: “Japan is a natural fit for our portfolio, and the demand for travel to Japan is at an all-time high. 

“Partnering with Wendy Wu Tours allows us to provide our agents with the best Japan itineraries available. From must-see destinations like Kyoto and Hiroshima to hidden gems that only a specialist like Wendy Wu can uncover, these tours will offer travellers authentic and unforgettable experiences.”
