The vehicle is just for you and not
shared with anyone else during the
tour. (Depending on the size of the
group, a car, minivan or buses will
be used.)
This tour starts
after breakfast, when you are picked
up from the hotel or port by our
private guide.
Pick up from your hotel. Set off on
the drive to Bursa (about
1.5-2 hours drive) outside of
Istanbul. During the journey we stop
off at one of Turkey's protected
heritage sites under the slopes of
Uludag Mountain - the
traditional village of
Cumalikizik, with idyllic
countryside setting. Here you will
enjoy a stroll around the charming
old village center and see the
wooden Ottoman houses of the
hospitable locals. Following a lunch
break, we continue on to Bursa
itself, the first capital of the
Ottomans. While exploring this small
city you will see the Green
Mosque & Tomb, the Grand
Mosque, famous for its beautiful
Seljuk wall calligraphy, the Silk
Market and the Covered Bazaar.
The return journey begins and we
take a scenic route through the
hills of Uludag and Mount
Olympos. Return drive to
Istanbul and drop off to your hotel. |
