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

“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

“What a day! Unforgettable experience.”
We had an amazing day with Rika during our cruise stop in Hiroshima. Rika communicated regularly before our tour and arranged a visit to a school teaching "The way of the Tea" direct from the port. It was something we will never forget. We then visited the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and surrounding area which was incredibly moving, Rika imparted all the information in perfect English. We also experienced the local delicacy Okinomiyaki at an authentic local cafe, it was delicious. We really enjoyed our time with Rika and would highly recommend using her at this special city. We only wish we had more time here to see more. Thank you Rika

Thank you so much for your kind words. I truly enjoyed spending time with both of you, and I was deeply moved by the way you listened so sincerely and showed such a genuine interest in learning about our history and culture—both during the tea ceremony and at the Peace Park. I would be delighted to welcome you back to Hiroshima one day, and I very much look forward to seeing you two again. Rika
