Amazing Service !! - We participated in both the Bosphorus tour and the Bursa tour with this company, both of which were perfectly organized. It is a complete professionalism that they contact us immediately after making a reservation, inform us again and remind us again before the tour. We can say that these are the two best activities you can do in Istanbul.

Amazing Bursa - Our tour went perfectly. It was an even more enjoyable tour as our guide constantly gave information about historical points. The food wasn't bad but could have been better. The cable car is nice but a little expensive, but the entrance fee was already written. Uludag Mountain was a lot of fun and we had the opportunity to take incredible photos :) I recommend it to everyone.

Would not recommend. - Firstly it took us 2 hours to get out of Istanbul because of all the pick-ups. I'd recommend having three meet places so things could move faster.
The whole "excursion" is just riding around in a bus from one shop to another which you can basically find anywhere in Turkey. It's a total cash grab.
The tour guide we had was funny and nice, but he did speed things up quite a bit and we were always behind schedule.
The weather was terrible and obviously it's no ones fault but I'd recommended even canceling the excursion on bad weather than doing it anyway. When it's foggy and raining then you literally can't do ANYTHING.
The trip itself isn't that expensive, sure, but everything you see during the trip costs money. (ATV, Ski Lift, Shopping...) and the only other option if you don't want to pay is to sit and wait since there is nothing else to do.
As far as Bursa goes - we didn't even see the city. So the title itself is really misleading. We were only in the Silk Market (spending money again) and the Green Mosque (which is fine) and that's it.
The trip ends with a stop at the Outlet store (again, spending money)
Also, the trip is WAY to long. We started at 8AM as the first pickup of the day and we were dropped off LAST at almost MIDNIGHT (the offer said we'd be back around 9 or 10pm)
So basically if you want to see something worth while or have a historical trip - I wouldn't recommend this at all.
The only decent thing was the lunch and the ferry boat ride (but you can do that on your own anyway)
I'd recommend taking the ferry out to one of the Prince's Islands and having a great day for yourself!
