Enjoyable in the Summer Season - My tour to Uludağ was the perfect escape from Istanbul. It was breathtaking to go up to Uludağ by cable car and watch the magnificent view. Snowy peaks, lush green forests and clear lakes... Every corner was a different beauty. I definitely recommend this tour to those who want to be in touch with nature and discover new places.

It was an unforgettable Uludağ adventure - We made a change at the weekend and joined a tour outside Istanbul. Bursa tour was a very different experience for us. We went to Bursa by bus. We completed part of the way by cable car. The whole city and nature were under our feet. During the tour, we had free time to ski and spend individual time. We had a delicious lunch at the restaurants at the summit and enjoyed the view. The best part of the tour was spending a day surrounded by nature, enjoying winter sports. Uludağ has a clean, exciting and snow-covered atmosphere. It is an ideal tour especially for those who love winter sports.

A perfect combination for nature lovers - Bursa Uludag Tour offers a spectacular escape just one day away from Istanbul. Thanks to this tour, we had enough time to enjoy the snowy peaks and the historical city of Bursa. The organization was flawless and every detail was considered. The cable car ride to Uludag was truly breathtaking. Climbing the snow-covered peaks and watching the magnificent view of Bursa left unforgettable memories. We had a day full of free time, sledding fun and snowball fights at the summit.

in the daily tours list - Our tour started at the designated time. We didn't have any problems. We took the ferry by car and arrived in Bursa with a pleasant short sea journey. Our tour guide was very professional and helped with everything. We enjoyed the snow in Uludag and had a delicious lunch. Then they dropped us back to our hotel. Thanks for everything

It’s Ok - This tour was ok, but would have been better if we didn’t have to visit a Jam factory or a Turkish delight store, it wasted time and was pointless. The main attraction of of this tour was the green mosque and Uladag mountain. If we could have visited the Tomb of Osman Ghazi then if would have been brilliant. Just be careful when booking these tours.
