Unfortunately, path leading to the courtyard is well protected.

When you get close to the main part of the Old City and pick up Ancient Armlet - 32G, you'll be forced to choose your path. Western one will take you to the Old City much faster, but it's well guarded by nearby guards including one patrolling this passage. Taking this path is recommended only if you have a surplus of Water Arrow and you like sneaking next to the enemies.

Beginning of the climbing

The better idea is to head to the northern tunnel, which takes you to the less guarded part of the Old City. Don't try to jump down, just turn left, catch the edge and move west. When you land, stay in the shadow, because guard from the southern corridor stops here from time to time.

You can get onto the higher level with the Rope Arrow - Get through the Old City - description - Chapter 8: The Dawns Light - Thief - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you want to leave this area ASAP, you can also look up and use the Rope Arrow onto the latch which is over Garrett. But if you don't want to waste arrows or want to finish exploration of the lower level, approach the southern courtyard carefully. It's a good idea to put out at least one torch, to decrease the risk of being spotted by enemies. I recommend sneaking to the chest attached to the wall and use a Wirecutter on it. It unlocks an access to the room where you can find Water Arrows, Fire Arrows, Gilded Bottle - 40G and two Wine Glasses - 2x10G. You can also try to rob the guards from the lower level and take their Coin Purses - 12+5+12G. But beware of the broken glass and better lit areas.

Stairs leading up

On the upper level of the Old City you can get in two main ways. Using the mentioned before Rope Arrow or using the southern stairs. In the second case, pick up an Ancient Armlet - 32G and watch out for the single guard who watches the courtyard you've recently searched. You can also steal his two Coin Purses - 17+15G. Both paths take you onto the room on the higher floor. When you open the door, wait until guards finish talking and spread out.

You can leave the main area of the Old City with the claw for example. - Get through the Old City - description - Chapter 8: The Dawns Light - Thief - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you want to get to the ship ASAP, you can use the new tunnel in front of the room's entrance. But I recommend to search the whole upper level. Pass the first guard (be careful also about the bird in the cage) and approach another one who leans over the balustrade. Rob this character of Coin Purses - 9+15G and search the rest of the balcony. You find: Tea Pot - 5G, two Saucers - 2x4G, two Tea Cups - 2x4G and a Flash Bomb. Now you can return to the tunnel or use the climb point next to the second guard.
