What to Expect

When booking our Bursa Day Tour from Istanbul, you can expect to visit one of the most important Turkish cities, and understand why Bursa is a popular destination for locals and foreigners. The day tour begins when a bus picks you up from your hotel in Istanbul. At the port, you will embark on a car ferry and cross the Marmara Sea. While on the ferry, take some time to observe the beauty of the Bosporus, and snap some photos of the bridges. After crossing Marmara Sea, the excursion continues with a bus to Bursa, through Yalova. Expect to enjoy a refreshing break at Gemlik, close to the lake. The break lasts for 1 hour, during which you can explore the setting, have a cup of tea or coffee, or even enjoy an atv safari at an extra cost.

The schedule includes, also, a stop at a Turkish delight factory, where you will listen to some interesting information, and if you wish, you can purchase some of these delicious treats. At Uludag Mountain, you will snap photos of a 600-year-old tree, as the guide explains some key facts about it. After an energising lunch break, the excursion continues with a free time at the mountain, and by the end of it get ready for an exciting cable-car ride. Reach the centre of Bursa with this fascinating way, and get the best views over the city! Expect, also, to visit the Green Mosque and learn everything about it. Next to it, there is a silk market from where you can buy some souvenirs. Our Bursa Day Tour from Istanbul finishes at night. The bus will drop you off at your hotel, filled with emptions and memories from this full day exploration.
