Begin your journey in Bursa, the Ottomans’ first great capital, where history and culinary tradition intertwine. The first full day offers a guided walk through the city’s most emblematic sites: the majestic Bursa Grand Mosque, the bustling Bedesten market, the iconic Green Tomb and Green Mosque famed for their turquoise tiles, and the solemn resting places of the empire’s founders, Osman and Orhan Gazi. A leisurely tea break under the shade of the ancient Historical Plane Tree provides a moment to absorb the city’s timeless atmosphere.
Day three is a culinary adventure: learn to prepare classic Bursa dishes such as Iskender kebab and Inegol meatballs in a local restaurant, then savor your creations for lunch. The afternoon opens up for free time and shopping in the city centre, allowing you to pick up local crafts and souvenirs. The following day, indulge in the centuries‑old tradition of the Turkish bath, where a soothing sequence of hot and cold rooms, scrubbing, and optional massage leaves you refreshed and rejuvenated.
Throughout the tour, you’ll stay in comfortable accommodation in Bursa, enjoy four breakfasts and a lunch on the cooking day, and have a professional English‑speaking guide to enrich your experience with insightful commentary. The itinerary blends cultural exploration, hands‑on cooking, leisurely shopping, and relaxation, delivering a well‑balanced taste of Bursa’s heritage and hospitality.

My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
