About Tour Guide Rieko S.

Hello! I am Rieko, a licensed tour guide with a deep passion for sharing the wonders of Gunma.

Located in the center of the main island of Japan, Gunma has been a place where travelers from various parts of Japan, like Tokyo, Niigata, and Nagano, come and go. Some would relax in a hot spring, others would be encouraged by beautiful scenery. Gunma has helped them rejuvenate and keep traveling with energy.

Drawing from my experience as a local tour guide and knowledge of Japanese culture, history, and traditions, I offer you a seamless and immersive journey. Embark on an adventure with me and discover the untold stories, hidden treasures, and vibrant local communities that make Gunma a truly remarkable destination. I hope to see you soon!

Reviews

Customized Initial D Tour with Yamba Dam Exploration

We highly recommend this tour to fellow Initial D fans as Rieko took us to must see sites featured in the anime. Rieko was also very friendly, flexible, and fluent in English. She even went out of her way to help us spot all the Initial D manholes in Shibukawa. The process of pre-planning and customization of the places to we want to visit were smooth.

Thank you for your wonderful review. It sounds like you successfully completed your manhole-hunting, and I’m glad to hear that. Since you were staying in Ikaho, it was a pleasure to show you one of my favorite places in Gunma. Thank you again for choosing me as your guide.

Subaru factory tour

Rieko did a wonderful job interpreting the Subaru factory tour for our group of 5. She was very friendly and helped us with any questions we had during the tour. Even before the tour communication was easy and she responded quickly. Thank you again Rieko!!
