Rami was an amazing guide - he was very knowledgeable about both the city and the war. He is a photographer/history buff but you don't have to be to enjoy this tour!
His communication before the tour was stellar, including an email the morning of to remind us to dress warmly since there had been a drop in temperature. The tour was well paced and really was a unique way to learn about the history of Oslo and make our way around the city.

We thoroughly enjoyed learning about WW2 in Oslo - 1940-1945 - from our researched and passionate guide, Rami Kafarov.
He shared history and stories about the people and city during its occupation. He even included pictures from the same spots 80 years later! Rami was very professional and pleasant and shared a wealth of information with us during our tour immersion. We purchased his beautiful book full of details and pictures of the tour.
We definitely recommend Rami as your tour guide. This will be a tour you will remember fondly! Thank you, Rami! God bless you and yours!

Rami was very engaging and informative and his tour was the highlight of our stay in Oslo. He directed his presentation towards our interests as well as bringing to our attention points that were off the beaten teack but added significantly to our appreciation of the time period. Highly recommended!

Rami's guided walk is meticulously researched, combining original 1940s photos with a photographer's eye and a good guides ability to bring stories to life. From collaborators and Quisling, the heroes of the resistance and the fate of Norway 's Jewish community, we were fascinated and moved. I am a guide myself, and can wholeheartedly recommend this guide. Easy to find and book direct too if you wish.

I have always had a deep interest in WWII history. On our first visit to Norway we took this tour with Rami. AMAZING!!!!
Not only did he work with me to find a date/time that worked for both our schedules he gladly went over the amount of time scheduled for the tour and gave my wife and myself a tour of a lifetime. To say it was like drinking from a WWII history firehose would be an understatement.
Rami has stayed in touch with emails on topics of interest we discussed during our tour in Oslo.
So glad we took his tour!
