Explore the first capital of the Ottoman Empire on a small group full-day tour of Bursa from Istanbul.
Following a pick-up from your hotel on Istanbul’s European side, transfer to the port to catch a ferry to Yalova. Cross the Sea of Marmara. Then, relax in air-conditioned comfort on the 2-hour drive to Bursa.
Upon arrival, sample some of the local produce of the region, such as chestnuts, honey, olives, Turkish delights and more. See historic bazaars and sights, such as the Grand Mosque (Ulu Cami).
Next, climb a mountain for a barbecue lunch.
Enjoy some free time to enjoy an ATV safari, or take a minibus to the ski slopes for a spot of ski-ing (extra fee own expense).
Hear how Bursa marked the end of the ancient Silk Road, and how the city was once home to countless artisans who produced kaftans and soft furnishings for the Turkish sultans.
Return to Istanbul in the evening, for a drop off at your hotel.
