The history of Jews in Oslo and Norway is brief and distinctive. This tour is also unusual as it covers all the history on one street. We will begin in front of the location where the first Jewish family settled in Oslo and continue down the city's main street. The street was always bustling with activity, and it's no surprise that Jewish businessmen also opened stores there. Monuments, the Parliament building, and even the city's main church all have some connection to Jewish history. Imagine that even the Royal family has something in common with a Jewish boy from Tunisia. The tour is accompanied by many visual materials and stories from Oslo's Jewish community. A visit to the Jewish Museum (located in the former synagogue building) can be included in the itinerary upon request.

Our tour guide, was exceptional! He showed us many places and related little-known facts about the Jewish history of Oslo and Norway in general. Great sense of humor, too!

Rami is an excellent guide. He also is an artist and historian. He was very responsive to emails. We booked directly with him so we had much more flexibility in planning. He an interesting person and has a great personality.
Our tour covered more than Jewish heritage including Oslo City Hall and Vigeland Sculpture Park. His commentary enhanced our appreciation of Oslo and those sites. Oslo City Hall has stunning murals that depict Norwegian history including WWII.
Rami made suggestions that helped us to capture the best photos with our phones. We highly recommend Rami Kasparov and Oslo Photo Tour. Our time with him was extremely well spent and definitely made our visit to Oslo better.

I found this Jewish History Tour by searching in Google, and I was able to arrange for the tour according to my limited schedule, and I'm VERY glad that I took the tour. Previously, I had known only the outlines of the history of Jews in Norway, and I found Rami to be very knowledgeable and engaging -- we visited the key sites and I learned a lot of interesting facts regarding the history of Jews as well as about the country as a whole. I highly recommend anybody who is interested in these subjects to contact Rami and book his tour.
