What Is a Private Walking Tour of Tokyo Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Meiji Shrine and Shibuya
The guests were visitors from North America. The guide shared stories from time spent studying in North America, and a variety of conversations flowed naturally. The guests were calm and knowledgeable. They cheerfully remarked that they were glad the weather was cloudy as they walked energetically. Meiji Shrine was the first place we visited, and with few people around, the guests were deeply moved by its environment and natural surroundings. They also walked a great deal in Shibuya, and shabu-shabu was a first-time experience for them; they were pleased that the restaurant was spacious and relaxing. The guests kindly treated me to the meal as well. Although there was still time to spare, the guests said they were tired and wished to return to their accommodation, so I saw them off. It was a wonderful tour. Thank you very much.
