This tour to Bursa was incredible! The history, especially at the Grand Mosque and the Green Tomb, was so fascinating, and our guide explained everything in detail. Uludağ Mountain was a beautiful bonus, and the cable car ride was absolutely worth it. The private car made the trip so comfortable. Highly recommend
