Half a day before we got to Xi’an, I was able to find this organization and Jenny. They met us in the morning and had a great start to the day with a little history on Xi’an and all of China from Jenny during the 2 hr trip to the Famen Temple. I can’t say enough about Jenny. She really knew her stuff. She also knew when to let us take in everything we are seeing. It really was the perfect day. I will definitely be requesting her the next time I am here.
