Reviews: Bursa & Uludag Mountain from Istanbul W/ Pickup&Lunch Optional Cable Car -Teleferik Ticket
Guest User2026-01-27
A fairly standard trip. Having spent too much time in Istanbul and nowhere to go, I decided to try this tour. The driver picked me up from the hotel around 8 AM and didn't arrive back until 11 PM, a very long time – basically half the day was spent in the car. The first stop was a motocross ride near Yalova (optional, at your own expense). If you didn't ride, you'd just have to wait there; there was no scenery to speak of. The second stop was a candy shop – ridiculously expensive, we only stayed for an hour. The third stop was a visit to a large tree – another standard attraction, offering a panoramic view of Bursa. The fourth stop was lunch. The fifth stop was a mountaintop ride with a cable car (optional, not included in the tour price). If you didn't ride, you'd just have to wait there. The sixth stop was a cable car ride from the top of the mountain to the bottom (included in the tour price), the scenery was quite nice. The seventh stop was visiting two churches in Bursa, and then we returned to Istanbul, concluding the trip. Overall, there aren't any particularly special sights, especially since the entire day is essentially a bus tour if you don't participate in the optional excursions. The biggest highlight is the cable car ride down the mountain at the end. I wouldn't recommend making a special trip for it; it's only suitable for people like me who have been in Istanbul for too long and have nowhere else to go. Also, if you do choose to participate, be sure to bring your own food. The tour only provides lunch around 3 PM; from 8 AM to 11 PM, you'll have to fend for yourself, as prices at the tourist attractions are shockingly high. Personally, I still really enjoyed it because I'd never seen snow before, and the snow-covered scenery on the mountain was absolutely stunning.

An amazing trip. With food and drinks, it was 1290 rubles per person. The people were friendly, and the boat was pleasant and in good condition.

Despite it being very cold to walk around the deck, the views from inside were excellent, and I really enjoyed the trip. There was also a great bilingual guide (thank you, Camilla!), and they served hot tea with a variety of Turkish sweets. A very pleasant experience overall.

We were picked up from the hotel on time, the food was surprisingly good, and the performances were fine. Perhaps it would be helpful if they announced the schedule for each show so you don't miss any, as they are very short. I found the way people treated the belly dancer, stuffing money into her bra, degrading… is this 2026?

The service was excellent; they waited for us well in advance and were very friendly and welcoming throughout. The wildlife park was also very pristine. It was a very enjoyable trip, and hiring a car was definitely the best choice!

Guide Wang's explanations of the Forbidden City are incredibly professional! He effortlessly connects the historical context of the Ming and Qing dynasties with the architectural regulations of the palaces, providing detailed and thorough explanations of everything from mortise and tenon joinery to court anecdotes. His presentations are engaging and insightful, avoiding rote memorization. The itinerary is well-planned, avoiding crowds and allowing you to discover lesser-known facts. He patiently answers questions throughout, maintaining a perfect pace. Following him on a tour of the Forbidden City not only lets you see the sights but also deepens your understanding of the cultural heritage behind them – a truly enriching experience!
