About Tour Guide Rika F.

“The nicest guide in Hiroshima and probably Japan. ”

We always choose guides with great reviews, but Rika truly went above and beyond even our highest expectations. From the moment we met her, her warmth, enthusiasm, and professionalism made us feel completely at ease. Her English was excellent — clear, fluent, and full of personality — which made it so easy for our family of six (with “kids” in their 20s!) to connect with her and the stories she shared. Rika’s deep knowledge of Hiroshima’s history and culture was remarkable, but what stood out even more was how sensitively and thoughtfully she told those stories. She made a complex, emotional history come alive in a way that was informative, moving, and deeply human. Beyond her expertise, Rika is simply a lovely person — kind, engaging, and genuinely interested in making sure everyone had a meaningful experience. Every member of our family came away saying how much they enjoyed the day and how much they’d learned. If you’re visiting Hiroshima, don’t hesitate for a moment — book a tour with Rika. She’s not just a guide; she’s the kind of person who makes a great trip truly unforgettable.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It truly touched my heart—I was almost moved to tears. Spending time with you, your lovely family, and your friends (all six of you) was such a joyful and memorable experience. Everyone was so cheerful and kind, and you all warmed my heart. There are still many places in Hiroshima worth visiting, so I hope you’ll come back again someday. I’m really looking forward to the day we meet again. Rika

Thank you so much for your lovely review. Although our time together in Hiroshima was short, it was truly meaningful for me as well. I’m glad you were able to find the kitchen knife you were looking for, and I hope your son-in-law will be pleased with it! I hope you’ll visit Hiroshima again someday and I’d be so happy if we could meet again one day! Rika

“Understanding Hiroshima”

My wife, Janet and I would like to thank Rika-san with her enthusiasm in showcasing her Hiroshima to us. The entire day was well planned and exposed us to an area with joy. Kudos
