As avid skiers, we thought that it would be a kick to ski in the shadow of the Great Wall. Austria it's not, but it was a cultural experience we will not soon forget. We spent the afternoon visiting the Great Wall, which was another serious wow. We are so glad that, despite warnings that China is cold in the winter, we did visit in the winter. There were no crowds wherever we went, including the Great Wall, which, given the huge empty parking structure, is not the case the rest of the year. Jenny was a charming, knowledgeable tour guide. We had a fabulous day with her and she stayed in touch with us during the rest of our visit to Beijing to make sure that we were well cared for. We highly recommend Lily's service and Jenny in particular.
