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.

“Memorable Moments ”
Rika was an incredible tour guide. My family can't say thank you enough for such a great day. We were able to see the beauty of Hiroshima through her eyes. She gave us memories that we will have for a lifetime. Rika truly made it a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend her.

“A Meaningful and Personal Hiroshima Experience with Rika”
We were two couples visiting Hiroshima for one day. We arrived by cruise ship and took a taxi to the first metro station, where Rika was waiting for us. With her, we experienced Hiroshima in a different and more personal way than a standard cruise excursion. This was exactly what we liked very much. The weather was not perfect and we had some rain during the day, but Rika organized the route very well and adapted everything smoothly. She has excellent knowledge about Hiroshima, its history and its meaning, which added a lot of value to our visit. During a coffee break, she also taught us how to fold paper cranes in memory of Sadako, which was a very touching and special moment for us. Rika was kind, well prepared, organized and very attentive throughout the day. She helped us understand Hiroshima not only as a historical place, but also as a city with deep emotion, memory and culture. We ended the day beautifully with her choice of a local restaurant, where we tried Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. It was a perfect and authentic finish to our visit. We had a great time with Rika. She was not only a very good guide, but also a very pleasant person to spend the day with. She made our Hiroshima visit feel personal, meaningful and memorable. We would warmly recommend her to anyone visiting Hiroshima..

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. Although the weather was unfortunately rainy that day, spending time with the four of you was truly enjoyable for me as well. I’m very happy to know that your time in Hiroshima was meaningful and memorable. I still remember us laughing together while enjoying the okonomiyaki, along with the warm atmosphere of the restaurant itself. I hope those moments will remain as special memories for all of you. Thank you as well for the delicious chocolates, they were wonderful! I was also very happy to learn more about your country through our conversations. Meeting people from different backgrounds is one of the things I truly love about being a guide. Please come visit Japan and Hiroshima again someday. I sincerely hope we will meet again in the future. Rika
