Glad to have Jenny as English speaking tour guide - I reserved a private English speaking tour for my two big boys. They would be bored just looking at the temple without knowing the history and knowledge. Jenny did an excellent job introducing the origin of Feilaifeng and then some sculptures known to Chinese. We also learned a lot about Lingyin temple and various gods in Buddhism. Jenny was also flexible in time. The traffic was very heavy from the train station to Lingyin temple and I was afraid of missing 2pm schedule. I emailed Jenny and she told us no worry as she will be waiting for us. After the tour Jenny also accompanied us taking bus to a station that we can get a Didi easily. Overall we truly enjoyed the tour and glad to have Jenny helping us before and after the tour.

Great tour of the Lingyin Temple. - Highly recommend to those who are interested in an English guided tour of the Lingyin Temple. We booked the tour pretty last minute the day before so Jenny arranged for her colleague Han to provide us of the tour. Han did a great job in explaining the significance of the site and the history of Buddhism in China. Han was friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The tour lasted a little over two hours, which we all felt was enough time but if you wanted to, you could explore the area on your own after the tour.
