My name is Rami, and I’m an authorized Oslo guide and professional driver. Although I wasn’t born in Norway, this country has truly become my home over the years. As a schoolboy, I was fascinated by the stories of polar explorers—especially Roald Amundsen and Fridtjof Nansen. Norway felt like a distant, almost mythical place back then. Today, I have the privilege of living here, guiding guests through the very streets connected to those stories, and even standing at the helm of the legendary Fram, the ship that reached both poles. I’d be happy to take you on a journey through time—from the Viking Age to modern Oslo—sharing both the well-known history and the smaller, local stories that bring the city to life. I hold the following degrees: Associate Engineer (Bachelor) in Photography and Digital Media from Hadassah College, Jerusalem Master’s degree in International Business and Marketing from Lauder Business School, Vienna

This tour is the result of years of dedicated research, carefully assembling a mosaic of historical facts and personal stories from Oslo’s wartime past. Today, I’m proud to offer a truly one-of-a-kind experience in the city’s tour landscape. To bring the journey to life, I share rare illustrations and original documents from my personal collection, all tied to the dramatic years of 1940–1945. As a non-native Norwegian, I offer a neutral and balanced perspective—one that highlights not only courage and resistance, but also collaboration and the often-overlooked stories of silenced war heroes. In light of recent discoveries, we’ll also delve into ongoing debates about right and wrong, truth and myth. Our walk begins at the Royal Palace and leads through central Oslo. Even if you’ve explored the city before, I promise you’ll see it with new eyes. As a bonus, we’ll also visit filming locations from The King’s Choice and Number 24—adding another cinematic layer to this historical journey.
Rami knows Oslo history and especially the WWII occupation. If you are not into a lot of facts and details about the occupation, resistance, and the Jewish situation in Oslo this is not the tour for you. But, if you are I highly recommend this one for you. To see the old pictures and know you are standing in the EXACT spot where that action/history occurred is pretty moving. He can talk your ears off about an subject he clearly is an expert.
This tour was excellent! Rami was very knowledgeable and has collected unique pictures and artifacts related to Oslo's WWII history and the Nazi occupation. Our family has a wide range of ages, including a younger child that is very interested in WWII history, and Rami did a wonderful job of tailoring the tour to match the different age ranges. Would definitely recommend this tour for anyone that is interested in Oslo's WWII history!
A memorable tour by a dedicated and informative guide. I learned a lot.
An excellent tour guide, very well informed and enjoys sharing his knowledge. Would recommend anyone interested in WW II.
Wonderful and informative tour with a guide who clearly loves his topic. Rumi is very respectful to the topic and the people who were impacted. It was a great morning, I definitely recommend this tour.
Rami gave a great tour! He's not native Norwegian and gave a balanced view of aspects of Norway's WWII. The tour covered much of Central Oslo and was very informative. Rami has a nice personality and the tour was well paced. I recommend him if you are interested in this topic!
