My first guide at Meiji Shrine in TCGC English group.

I first conducted foreign visitors at Meiji Shrine and Harajuku Area during the tour of TCGC (Tokyo City Guide Club, Nonprofit organization (NPO)).
It was a 2-hours walking tour in Meiji Shrine, Harajuku, and Omotesando area.
The guests of our group came from Nigeria,  the U.S, the Philippine and Singapore.
I’m a beginner guide in TCGC, so I guided as a pair guide with another beginner’s guide.

At first, I was a lit bit nervous, but the guests were very cooperative and listened to our explanation very enthusiastically, so the tour went off smoothly.

It was a pleasant experience for me, but I need to study more and more to make guests enjoy my guiding.
These pictures were our preliminary visit last week.
