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

“Haruna Shrine and "Initial D" related places in Shibukawa”

We had a fantastic time on the Initial D tour with Rieko! Her passion and knowledge of Initial D were truly amazing, and visiting the iconic landmarks brought the experience to life for our family. We were all thoroughly impressed. Rieko is a wonderful guide who is professional, knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, friendly and incredibly helpful. She engaged with us throughout the tour, answered our questions enthusiastically and made us feel welcome from start to finish. It was clear how much she loves what she does, and she went above and beyond to make the experience memorable for us. We highly recommend Rieko to anyone considering an Initial D tour. She did an excellent job and we would absolutely use her services again when we return to Japan. Thank you Rieko, for such a wonderful and memorable experience!

It was a great pleasure to be a part of your journey in Japan. I enjoyed talking with you all about various topics during the drive and lunch. I was so happy to see your husband and son taking many photos at the places we visited together. I hope that someday, when your husband and son come across places they photographed in manga or anime, they’ll remember this trip fondly. Thank you again for choosing me as your guide. I hope the memories of your trip will stay with you for many years to come.

“Fruit Picking and Tanigawadake”

Thank you Rieko for another great tour. It was my first time to see apples growing on trees, so I was glad I could experience seeing and eating them. I couldn't believe how much apples we saw growing while driving through Numata to get to that beautiful rest stop you took us to visit for souvenirs and gifts. The view from Mt. Tanigawa was beautiful that day and clear! Look forward to touring with you again soon.

I’m very honored to guide you again, and I’m so glad you enjoyed your first apple-picking experience! It makes me happy that you and your friends were able to appreciate the beauty of Minakami in both spring and autumn. Gunma has many more places with beautiful scenery and natural wonders, and I hope to take you on another tour you’ll enjoy someday.
