Knowledgeable and engaged guide

Engaged and knowledgeable guide. There were only 2 of us and we got space to ask questions. All the highlights were covered, and he contacted us well in advance on Whatsapp so we knew exactly where we were going to meet and other information. Very good! Recommended

The best way to explore Antalya's Old City

​I had an incredible Antalya Old City tour, and our guide made it an absolute highlight of our trip! He was deeply knowledgeable about the history of Kaleiçi, bringing every site to life with fascinating stories, but what really set him apart was his personality. He was so funny, kept us entertained the entire time, and showed incredible patience and helpfulness with our group. If you are exploring Antalya, do yourself a favor and book a tour with him. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Worth the money for his knowledge

Onder was a very knowledgeable guide. If we didn’t have him while in old town we would have missed so much and just walked by it. He was very personable and not only gave you the history but tied in his own family and life there. Worth it.

Highly recommend!

Very glad to have found Onder! He made sure to include our teens who had a wonderful time *because of him*. He perfectly adapts to the energy of his audience. Onder knows so much we could probably do the tour a few times and still hear amazing new stories. Be sure to include the tasting in your booking because it is heaven. Even our picky eater loved it. Onder also had many tips for our city visit which were very helpful, it made our day in Antalya even better. Thank you so much!

Onder was an amazing guide, full of passion and love for his city. He did not spare any moment to share in this wonderful history of the old city and the treasures it holds. He gave us a wonderful 2.5hr tour full of everything you need to bring the old city to life.
