Kaleiçi’s streets are uneven and narrow, so comfortable walking shoes are essential. Many areas are pedestrian-only, adding to its charm. Most attractions are open year-round, but check opening times for museums or specific sites. Bring cash for smaller vendors, though many establishments accept cards.

From central Antalya, Kaleiçi is easily accessible by tram, bus, or taxi. If you’re near Konyaaltı Beach or Lara Beach, it’s a short ride. The tram stops at Kalekapısı, the gateway to Kaleiçi, making public transport a convenient option.

Kaleiçi is best visited in the early morning or late afternoon to avoid the heat and enjoy fewer crowds. Evening visits are magical, with atmospheric lighting enhancing the historic architecture. Many shops, restaurants, and cafes stay open late, offering plenty of time to explore.

Spend a day immersing yourself in Kaleiçi’s rich history and culture. Start with Hadrian’s Gate and walk through the charming streets. Visit the Suna-Inan Kıraç Museum for a glimpse into Turkish heritage, and end with a sunset view at the marina. Boat tours departing from the harbor are a relaxing way to conclude your visit.
