About Tour Guide Rika F.
I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and my love for this city led me to switch from nursing to guiding. As a guide, I specialize in Hiroshima city downtown, Miyajima, Futaba no Sato, Onomichi, and Tomo-no-Ura. I also introduce secret photo spots and hidden gems. Using my experience as a nurse, I prioritize meticulous care and bring my natural brightness, aiming to provide a guide experience that allows you to fully enjoy Hiroshima.

“A memorable visit to Hiroshima ”
We spent half a day with Rika in Hiroshima. It was very memorable and educational. She's a very lively and engaging guide who knows history and off the beaten path places. She also brought us to a local place for lunch, which was both tasty and entertaining. We couldn't be happier with her tour!

Thank you very much for your lovely review. Although it was only a half-day tour, I’m truly happy that both families showed interest in Hiroshima’s history and recovery, and that we had the chance to talk about so many things together. I still have a lot to learn myself, and I continue to hope for peace in the world. I sincerely hope to see you all again someday. Thank you so much to both families for joining the tour. Rika

From the moment we met her, Rika’s warmth and kindness made us feel completely at ease. She was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing the city’s rich and complex history with thoughtfulness, clarity, and deep respect. making the tour meaningful and memorable. Beyond her expertise, Rika was also wonderfully accommodating—always attentive to our needs, patient with our questions, and flexible with our pace. She went out of her way to ensure we had the best possible experience, and her genuine enthusiasm for her city was infectious. Spending the day with her felt like exploring Hiroshima with a trusted friend. We cannot recommend Rika highly enough.
