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.

Important

I can work on days when I don't have other reservations.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. Your kind words truly lifted my spirits as a guide. I really enjoyed our time together. I mentioned so often how much I hope you’ll come back that by the end, you joked, “We know already!” Still, I do hope you’ll visit Hiroshima again—when the cherry blossoms bloom or the autumn leaves are at their best. I’ll be waiting with all my heart. Rika

Yanai’s old town was a perfect day despite inclement weather.

My wife and I felt very lucky and fortunate to have Rika navigate the train schedules and explain old Yanai and also the history around hiroshima. Her English is fluent and her nursing background shines through in her attention to her clients. Highly recommended. Daniel and Lesley Tokawa, North Vancouver, Canada.

Thank you for your warm message. Although I didn’t have extensive knowledge about Yanai, I feel truly grateful for the opportunity to guide you and for the chance to reflect on family connections and history. After lunch, the rain was unfortunate, but I hope that someday, on a rainy day in Canada, it will bring back memories of today. Thank you so much once again. Rika

Hello, I'm HIDEo YOSHIda. Please call me HIDEYOSHI, the same name as the famous shogun who built the Osaka Castle in 1585. I was born in Kobe and worked in Osaka for nearly 40 years. I would like to introduce the Kansai region to you ,including Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Wakayama. Kobe is one of the two largest ports in Japan, along with Yokohama. After the opening of the Port of Kobe in 1868, foreigners built their residences on the hillside of the Kitano-cho area, overlooking the ocean. Many of the foreign residences are now open to the public as museums, including the Weathercock House, with it's symbol weathercock on the triangle-shaped roof. In Meriken Park, the red Port Tower (the city's landmark), creates a beautiful contrast against the white Kobe Marine Museum. The museum's design was inspired by the waves and sailing ships. When you have a chance to visit Osaka, please join my tour. I'm sure you'll enjoy the interesting and historical, scenic spots. For example, Shin-Sekai is a downtown area with a strange mix of nostalgic atmosphere and contemporary energy. You can try local foods (kushikatsu, sushi, tempura) at a reasonable price. Billiken (a famous statue of the spirit of luck) will be waiting for you!!. Dotombori is a popular street with a lot of flashy signboards. Osaka is widely known as a "Kuidaore-no-machi", or literally "drinking and eating luxuriously to death." Osaka Castle was built by Toyotomi HIDEYOSHI in 1585. Oh, it's my residence, isn't it ! These days "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" area in USJ, or Universal Studios Japan, is also attracting more and more people. I'll be looking forward to seeing you !!
