About
Take a journey back in the time to the 1940´s, where the Nazi-German forces had occupied Oslo. On this guided walking tour we will pass along main streets of Oslo, but we will look at them from a broader vision. The war left many traces in the city, but it's not so easy to notice them.

An extraordinary day's exploratoration of Oslo and in depth history of the Jews of Norway
Aug 2019
We selected Rami as our guide when seeking a tour of Jewish Oslo and found him to be a superbly well informed guide of the history of Norway, its culture and alliances. Part of his tour of Jewish Oslo included specially arranged visits to the Jewish Museum and the synagogue from the 1920s. His tour of the incredible Vigeland Sculpture Park included his knowledge and insights into the background of Vigeland, the artist and the statues themselves. His visit to this world renown park should not be missed. He has another tour focused on the war years of occupation. His was one of the most meaningful tours we have ever had on our many travels.
