Therefore, be sure not to miss the opportunity to purchase your favorite varieties from this shop.

Once the free time is over, you will enter in a cable car and enjoy an exciting and fun ride towards Bursa’s city centre.

Mixed experience, some disappointments with the itinerary
I hope travel agencies will be more transparent and honestly list the full and accurate itinerary (including all stops, activities, and realistic timings) in the future. This would help prevent travelers from being caught off guard and ensure better expectations. I joined a full-day Bursa tour that started with a 7:30am hotel pickup. The driver then spent nearly two hours collecting guests from other hotels. I specifically chose this tour after reading the itinerary on TripAdvisor because it did not mention ATV riding. Unfortunately, we were still taken to an ATV location. Since most of the guests had no interest in riding, we ended up sitting at a nearby snack shop waiting. I also expected only one shopping stop (the Turkish delight store), but the tour included two or three additional shopping points inserted throughout the day. On the positive side, we did visit the main attractions listed, and the lunch provided was genuinely delicious. The Green Tomb (Yeşil Türbe) was beautiful, but a bit rushed. The itinerary mentioned 2–3 hours in that area, so I was looking forward to exploring the nearby bazaar/market and visiting Osman I’s tomb too. Instead, we only had about one hour and could only see the Green Tomb. That was quite disappointing. The tour finally ended around 10:15pm. It was a very long day. While I wasn’t fully satisfied with how the itinerary was followed, I really appreciate the driver who worked hard from early morning until late at night.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.
How much does Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $54 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Istanbul usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Istanbul is not rushed.
Is Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Istanbul can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Istanbul and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Guided Bursa Full Day Tour from Istanbul with Cable Car and Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Istanbul within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Istanbul?
+
On Outty we rank every Istanbul experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Istanbul 1, 2 or 3-Day Private Guided Istanbul Tour, Istanbul Luxury Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Asian Side Stop, ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Istanbul?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Istanbul?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
