It takes about 3 hours 45 minutes to reach Bursa from the city of İstanbul via the E80 route. Elapsing a distance of about 239.2 Kms, we offer to drive you directly to Uludag with a halt or drop-off at Bursa. Since the distance between Istanbul and Uludağ can only be crossed on a cable car, we take the route through Busra to stay on road. Uludağ is basically a national park, and a resort for winter sports. Standing at an altitude of 8,343 ft, the journey to the national park is often a discouragement for most. From Bursa, our chauffeurs take the tarmac 22 Km winding road that leads straight into the park. Thus, you can as well avoid the cable car way if the risks of the journey make you apprehensive.
