Should I watch the old Planet of the Apes?

Absolutely to the originals. The 1968 movie is probably my favorite sci fi movie of all time, and the sequels are extremely enjoyable and tell a cool story. The Tim Burton movie is terrible. If you really want to be comprehensive you can watch it, but I honestly don’t even consider it to be a part of the series.

What is the best order to watch the Planet of the Apes?

For the record, the correct order of the film titles should be: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, War for the Planet of the Apes, and finally Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
