If you’re planning a trip to Turkey, don’t miss the chance to explore its capital city, Ankara. I recently joined the Ankara Private Walking Tour with a Professional Guide, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made during my travels.
This tour is perfect for anyone who wants a more personal and relaxed way to see the city. It’s a private walking tour, which means it’s just you (or your small group) and the guide no crowds, no big tour buses, just a peaceful and fun day walking through the heart of Ankara.
We started the day by meeting our professional guide right in the center of the city. Our guide was not only super friendly but also full of knowledge about Ankara’s history, culture, and hidden spots. It felt like walking with a local friend who really knew their stuff!
First stop: Anitkabir, the impressive mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey. This place gave me chills in a good way! The architecture was stunning, and hearing the stories behind the monuments made it even more meaningful.
From there, we headed toward the old town (Ulus), where you can really feel the city’s past come alive. We wandered through narrow streets, saw ancient Roman ruins, and even passed by traditional Turkish houses. One of my favorite parts was visiting the Ankara Castle, where you get amazing views over the whole city. It’s the perfect spot for photos, and our guide even helped take a few great shots.
Along the way, we stopped at a few small shops and cafes. It wasn’t rushed at all. We had time to sip Turkish tea, try local snacks, and even chat with some shopkeepers. I loved how the tour blended the big sights with simple, authentic local experiences.
What really made the tour special was how our guide tailored it just for us. They asked what we were most interested in and adjusted the stops and stories to match. Want more history? They’ve got it. Curious about local life or food? No problem. It felt really personal.
By the end of the tour, I felt like I had seen not just the famous landmarks, but also the soul of the city. I learned so much, had fun, and got a real taste of Turkish hospitality.
If you’re visiting Ankara, I highly recommend this private walking tour. It’s a great way to get to know the city in a relaxed and meaningful way. Whether you’re into history, culture, or just want to explore beautiful streets with a friendly local guide, this tour is for you.
So pack your walking shoes, bring your camera, and get ready to fall in love with Ankara one step at a time!
