Yes, in this sentence, "definitely" is similar to "really," but it carries a stronger sense of certainty or emphasis. It means "without a doubt" or "absolutely."
For example:
* "You should definitely visit old town." = "You should absolutely visit old town."
* It adds certainty, making the recommendation feel strong and confident.
While "really" can also be used for emphasis, it doesn't express the same level of certainty as "definitely."
For example:
* "You should really visit old town" = "I strongly suggest you visit old town."
* "You should definitely visit old town" = "I'm sure you must visit old town!"
So, they’re close in meaning, but "definitely" is more confident and decisive.

Yes, definitely in this sentence is an adverb which adds excitement and suggests that the old town is a place that shouldn't be missed and would be an important part of the experience.
