Discover Bursa’s beauty on a day trip from Istanbul. Enjoy a meal on Uludag Mountain, ride the cable car, and visit the iconic Green Mosque.

Explore the enchanting wonders of Bursa, the erstwhile Ottoman capital, with a comprehensive day tour departing from Istanbul. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Uludag Mountain, a premier destination for winter sports in Turkey, and embark on an exhilarating cable car ride. Savor the flavors of a traditional Turkish lunch, marvel at the architectural splendor of the Green Mosque, and stroll through the captivating Old Silk Market.

Commence your journey by being chauffeured from your Istanbul hotel, setting sail on a ferry from Kocaeli for a 45-minute voyage to Yalova. From there, traverse to Bursa in comfort aboard an air-conditioned bus.

Begin your day’s exploration at the historic Inkaya Tree, a venerable 600-year-old symbol of the city. Replenish your energy with a delectable mixed grill lunch on the outskirts of town.

Post-lunch, ascend to the summit of Uludag Mountain by bus and relish free time for winter pursuits such as skiing, motor skiing, or a scenic chairlift ride. Descend the mountain via the cable car, treating yourself to panoramic vistas along the way.

Proceed to the Green Social Complex, home to the resplendent Green Mosque and the Green Mausoleum. These architectural marvels are situated in proximity to the Old Silk Market, offering an array of Turkish delights, honey, and jams for you to purchase and sample.

As the day concludes, journey back to Istanbul by bus in the evening and conclude your adventure with a convenient drop-off at your hotel.
