Overview
Hi everyone. I'm Onur Erturk, an archaeologist and licensed tour guide who was born and grew up in Ankara. I guide my guests at the Ankara Castle, The Alaeddin Mosque, Anatolian Civilizations Museum, Temple of Augustus and the Hacı Bayram Mosque and the Mausoleum of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. I guide all around Turkey, but I mainly live in Ankara. So, I'm very informative, experienced and knowledgeable about the history, archaeology and the culture of the city.
As an archaeologist I would describe the archaeology of Turkey and the artifacts in the museums in a more detailed way, therefore you will have the real idea of the ancient civilizations, their connections with the modern Turkish people and culture. And on our daily Ankara City Tour you will have a chance to taste the local and traditional cuisine as in the lunch.
This tour is great for Archaeology, History and Culture enthusiasts and people who would like to learn about the history of the establishment of the Turkish Republic.

Ankara CastleThe Ankara Castle is actually the birth place and the heart of the Ancient City which dates back to the 3rd Century BC and constructed by the Celtic People. The later civilizations upgraded the fortress and the Old Town was formed around it before the Turkish Republic was established in 1923.
- This is the oldest mosque of Ankara which was constructed in the 12th Century by the Seljuk Turks. Some Roman-Byzantine Columns or bricks were recycled in its construction. (pass by)
-
It was declared as the Best Museum of Europe in 1997 and displaces some of the unique Anatolian Archaeology Artifacts date back to the periods from the Palaeolithic and Neolithic to the Hittite, Phrygian and Urartian Civilizations. Most of the archaeologically precious items from the Hittite Civilization, mainly from Hattusa and Alacahöyük as well as the Çatalhöyük Neolithic Settlement etc are in this wonderful museum.
