    • Meet the tour guide and start walking from Republic Square (Cumhuriyet Meydanı). Here, enjoy the fantastic view of the Old Town.

While you enjoy the views, your guide will share the settlement story of Antalya and the general history of it and the sites you will see from the terrace. After that, visit some of the places one by one.
    • Start with Yivli Minare Mosque, which is described as Fluted Minaret Mosque. This place consists of a public bath from the 12th century and a madrasah, a university during the first Turkish period in Antalya. Have a chance to see these buildings from the inside. 
    • Move to Clock Tower and get the details about it. Continue walking into the old town. Immerse in the magic of Ottoman streets, which date back to the 17th and 18th centuries A.D.

    Guide with multilingual talent

    What an incredible tour led by our guide! His deep knowledge of the city's history, coupled with his fluency in both English and German, truly impressed us. He is not only knowledgeable but also exceptionally friendly and kind.

    Crowdy yet a blast

    It was awesome diving into Antalya's history! We checked out a mosque, caught some harbor views, and got the lowdown on the statues' significance. However, city had a big crowd idk why, out guide said, it not common for this type of crowd, which got pretty annoying. Still, learning about Antalya was a blast!
