Start your day with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel in Istanbul. After meeting your guide and fellow travellers, we’ll drive to the ferry port and enjoy a scenic ferry ride across the Sea of Marmara to Yalova. From there, we’ll continue by bus towards Bursa — the first capital of the Ottoman Empire. During the journey, your guide will share interesting stories about the region’s history and culture. In Bursa, you’ll experience a memorable cable car ride, explore the city’s historical landmarks, and taste its famous local dishes, including the original Iskender Kebab. This full-day tour combines history, nature, and delicious Turkish cuisine for an unforgettable experience.
Yalova

After a relaxing ferry ride across the Sea of Marmara, we arrive in Yalova. Here, guests will have the opportunity to join an optional quad bike adventure through scenic natural trails. We’ll visit the quad bike area in Yalova, where you can enjoy an exciting off-road experience surrounded by nature before continuing our journey towards Bursa.
Uludağ Teleferik
  • 3h
  • Admission ticket included
Upon arriving in Bursa, we will head up to Uludağ Mountain, one of Turkey’s most famous nature and winter destinations. Guests can enjoy the fresh mountain air and stunning scenery. The cable car ride is included in the tour, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of Bursa and its surroundings. Lunch is served after the cable car experience, so we recommend having breakfast at your hotel before the tour. This will allow you to enjoy the morning comfortably and make the most of your day. After the cable car, we will have a traditional Turkish lunch at a local restaurant before continuing our Bursa exploration.
Yesil Camii
  • 1h
After our visit to Uludağ, we continue our journey to one of Bursa’s most significant historical landmarks — the Green Mosque (Yeşil Camii). Built in the early 15th century by Sultan Mehmed I, the mosque is an outstanding example of early Ottoman architecture. The Green Mosque is renowned for its beautiful turquoise and emerald-colored Iznik tiles, intricate calligraphy, and elegant marble details. Inside, visitors can admire the harmonious combination of Seljuk and early Ottoman design elements. It is part of the larger Green Complex, which also includes the Green Tomb (Yeşil Türbe) and a madrasa, symbolising the spiritual and architectural richness of Bursa. This stop offers a perfect opportunity to explore the artistry and history that mark the beginning of Ottoman imperial style.
Bursa
  • 1h
Shopping Time After visiting the Green Mosque, we’ll take a short break at one of Bursa’s most famous local product centers. Here, guests can discover a wide variety of delicious jams, natural honey, Turkish delight, and other regional specialities — all made with authentic local ingredients. It’s the perfect opportunity to taste, shop, or simply enjoy the warm hospitality of Bursa. Guests who prefer not to shop are welcome to relax outside or stay on the bus during this short stop. This sweet break adds a flavourful touch to your Bursa experience!
İnkaya Historical Plane Tree
  • 1h
After our shopping break, we head to one of Bursa’s most iconic natural landmarks — the Inkaya Plane Tree, known as the oldest tree in the city. This magnificent tree is estimated to be over 600 years old and stands as a living monument to Bursa’s rich history and natural beauty. Here, we’ll take a short photo break. Guests can relax under the giant branches, enjoy a cup of Turkish tea, and capture memorable photos beneath the shade of this legendary tree — a perfect moment to unwind and connect with nature before we continue our journey.
Istanbul
  • 2h
After completing our tour in Bursa, we begin our journey back to Istanbul. Depending on the schedule and traffic conditions, the return may be arranged either by ferry — with our bus boarding the ferry across the Sea of Marmara — or via the highway and bridge route. Both options offer comfortable travel and scenic views, ensuring a pleasant end to your day. Upon arrival in Istanbul, guests are dropped off at their hotels or designated locations.
