That day trip had everything I ever imagined! Super!!! We went on a boat trip with the tour bus and arrived on the other side. During our day in Bursa, we went to visit several interesting places like local workshops, mosques, tomb, and of course, we went on for natural panoramic views. I think the schedule was very interesting and combined many things for everyone in a day. I had a lovely day and my friends enjoyed it all together. Nice area for exploring, a lovely tour guide, and nature at its finest. Absolutely recommended.

We just arrived back at our hotel from the Bursa day trip. Please say THANK YOU to staff assigned to the tour, particularly the day tour guide. We were sitting in the last row and did not get an opportunity to thank him. He was courteous and experienced. Please pass on our thanks to the staff tonight.

I went to the Bursa on the organized trip. It was a nice city but I liked the Uludag mountain. The trip organization was good with driving, touring, ferry to cross on Marmara sea, guiding, and lunch services.

I used the Tource company for daily Cappadocia, Bursa, and the Black Sea Sile Agva Tours. All my 3 day daily tours were excellent and thanks to Erkan he delivered as stated. I would highly recommend Tours Travel group as Erkan was very responsive as we had planned and paid for these tours months in advance with no problems. All tour vouchers were delivered to the mail and all trips picked us up promptly from the hotel. Thanks Erkan.
