The needed Bursa tour day ! - The Bursa day tour was a cool refreshing getaway from Istanbul ! I personally appreciated the ferry ride and of course the cable car from the top of Uludağ mountain was an amazing experience ! It's really worth it especially during the winter season. Special thanks to the whole team for their availability and ability to answer to all my questions at any time of the day ! Finally, big thanks to Eric who perfectly handled my reservation ! Until next time :)

Family visit to Bursa - Our last minute reservation went so smoothly, thanks to Wric! Meeting the guide, Muhammed, was easy and he was helpful. All stops occurred as promised except for the oldest tree which was due to weather. But all was fantastic - took from 8:30a to 10:15p. Thank you!

Wonderful - The Bursa trip was amazing. We are so grateful for our guide being humble and helpful for us throughout journey. Thank you 😊 (On the behalf of Mr. Ismail and Zeyneth from India)

First trip to Bursa Turkey - Everything is excellent. Bursa trip and your guide is awesome. The food is good and the souvenir shops sellers are polite and friendly. They are not force us to buy anything .

It was a long day. I... - It was a long day. I remember reading a review by someone with the same comment but I signed up anyway because it was a good way to see more of Turkey other than just Istanbul. It was mostly a commercial for various stores along the way. Very little historical information. Still, It was a good opportunity to go to a few places near and in Bursa.

I joined this Bursa day... - I joined this Bursa day tour from Istanbul, and I was very disappointed overall. First, the program was misleading. We were taken early in the morning to a completely unplanned Safari/ATV stop that wasted over an hour. This was not advertised at all in the Viator listing. It was obviously there to push us to buy extra activities. That time should have been used to visit the historical sites we actually paid to see. Second, we didn't even visit the Grand Mosque (Ulu Camii), which is one of the main UNESCO World Heritage sites of Bursa. This was the main reason I joined the tour! Instead, we only stopped briefly at the Green Mosque and Tomb, and even there we arrived during prayer time so we couldn't properly go inside. It felt rushed and incomplete. The guide didn't even bother to point out the Grand Mosque from the bus. The time management was very poor overall. We spent far too much time at unnecessary shopping stops, with no real value, just pushing people to buy things. Meanwhile, they rushed us at the actual historical sites that should have been the highlight of the day. Also, the guide insisted on returning early even though the listing said return would be between 8 and 10 pm. There was no reason we couldn't stay in Bursa longer to see the sites properly. Many people wanted to see sunset on the ferry ride, but the schedule forced us to be stuck on the road at that time instead. On top of all that, the included lunch was extremely low quality. It was basically rice, a few pieces of meat, and a tiny salad. For a ~$70 tour, this was unacceptable. Every other full-day tour I've joined in Turkey at this price point included much better meals, with multiple courses, choice of meat, and even dessert. This was really disappointing in comparison. Overall, the day felt rushed, poorly planned, wasted on shopping, and not worth the money at all. I specifically booked this to see Bursa's main UNESCO heritage sites, but I was not given that experience. I do not recommend this tour.

Not enough time in Bursa.... - Not enough time in Bursa. We instead spent more time shopping and then the guide conveniently decided to skip the Bazaar and didn't allow us to spend enough time within the city. Save yourself the time and take the ferry directly from Istanbul and then the bus.

Do NOT recommend- almost no time in Bursa - About 90% of the tour was spent on the bus or at commercial pit stops, where we were strongly encouraged to make purchases (potentially because the tour operators receive a commission to offset the low cost of the tour). We only had around 45 minutes to an hour to actually explore Bursa. Overall, it felt like a wasted day that could have been better spent in Istanbul.

Worst experience of my life! - This was the second time I booked a Bursa tour while visiting Turkey. First time I came with my family in 2021 and had an amazing time ( we booked through a local travel agency). This time I came with a couple of my friends, to whom I had highly recommended the similar itinerary as provided by Trip Advisor. A complete disappointment this time around! We waited for an hour for our ride to pick us up from our hotel ( we all can understand the delay because of the traffic in Istanbul), but what came later was a complete surprise for us. Instead of the ferry ride that was mentioned, we were taken to an ATV safari which most us had not paid for and was not mentioned in our itinerary. Most of us had no idea about such an activity. We had to wait for one hour and 20 minutes for the ATV riders to come back. Later they made a couple of more stops, such as the Turkish delight factory ( that was mentioned and hence expected), but the next stop at the jams store was not mentioned either. By the time we were taken to a restaurant for lunch, it was almost 4pm. They skipped the 600 year old tree stop ( one of the major highlights like the ferry ride). We had to wait for 45-50 minutes for at the chair lift place ( again not an included activity in our ticket). We literally had to rush to catch the cable car, because only 9 minutes were left for it to stop for the day. My friend also tripped while rushing out of the bus. Thank God she didn’t get hurt badly. We reached Bursa’s Green Mosque and Silk bazaar at 7pm and were given 45 minutes to look around. Very disappointing for almost everyone on the bus! Our guide told us that if we take the ferry back it would take us 1 hour extra because of which we all decided to just go straight to Istanbul by road. If we ever come back again, I know I would not book such an activity through Trip Advisor, rather contact a local travel agency on my own. I would like to request a refund of my money. It was a complete waste of one full day which we could have utilized elsewhere.
