This Diyarbakır private tour takes one day, with hotel pick-up and drop-off in the city. A licensed guide, a minivan with driver, lunch and entrance fees are included. You walk the UNESCO-listed basalt walls of the Sur district, the İçkale citadel and the Great Mosque, then go down to the Hevsel Gardens and the Ten-Eyed Bridge on the Tigris.

Who this tour suits

This tour suits travelers who have one day in Diyarbakır and want the city walls, the citadel and the gardens without spending the day on logistics. Couples, friends and families can book the whole group as one private party, so the pace and the number of stops match the people on the tour. It also suits visitors who want a guide to explain how the walls were built and rebuilt over many centuries. Anyone who finds long stretches of walking hard should say so before booking, because most of the day is spent on foot along the fortress and the garden paths.

Spring, autumn and getting to Diyarbakır

Summers in Diyarbakır are hot, so walking the walls is easier in spring and autumn. Winters are cold, so bring layers. Flights are not included in the tour price, so book your own flight to Diyarbakır Airport and plan to arrive the day before the pick-up. The tour starts at your hotel, so you only need to be ready at the time your guide sets, and the day ends back at the same hotel. The fortress walk and the garden paths are both on foot, so wear comfortable shoes.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the Diyarbakır walls tour?

It is a one-day private tour. Your guide and driver collect you from your hotel in Diyarbakır, and the day ends at the same hotel. The route covers the city walls, İçkale, the Great Mosque, the Hevsel Gardens and the Ten-Eyed Bridge, with lunch in the middle. The stops and pace can be changed with your guide during the day.

What is included in the price?

Lunch at a local restaurant with a soft drink is included, along with a licensed guide, a minivan and driver, entrance fees to the sites, and local taxes, parking and fuel. Tips, optional tours and flights to Diyarbakır are not part of the price.

How do I get a price for this tour?

Price is on request for your dates and group size. Send your dates, group size and hotel name by WhatsApp to +90 544 674 42 28. Quotes are given for your exact dates, so send them as early as you can.

Can we change the stops or the pace?

Yes. Only your group rides in the minivan, so the guide can extend a stop, shorten one or drop it. Mention any place you want to see when you book, and the team will confirm whether it fits the day.

What should we wear and bring?

Wear comfortable walking shoes, since most of the day is on stone paths and uneven ground. Bring water and a hat in warmer months, and a light jacket for spring or autumn visits. Bring sunglasses too, since the walls and gardens are open to the sun.
