Title: What Is a Private Full-Day Tokyo Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Meiji Shrine, Asakusa, and the Tokyo National Museum
I was wondering what topics to focus on for the tour, but the guest mentioned an interest in history, so we started by discussing an outline of Japanese history in the car. I believe this proved helpful when I gave explanations at Meiji Shrine, Asakusa, and the Tokyo National Museum. We had ramen at a shop in Tsukiji, but quite a bit was left uneaten. The guest said they were full, but I am a little concerned that it may not have suited their taste. I had some as well, and honestly it was not especially delicious. The driver was very pleasant, and everything ran on schedule, so I think it went well.
