Overview

On a day trip, you are watching the clock by the middle of the afternoon. On our Uludağ ski tour in 3 days, the last run of the day ends at your hotel. You come up from Istanbul in your own car, sleep two nights on the mountain and ski with no road to think about.

Your Uludağ Ski Tour, Booked in Advance

Tell us your sizes, your level and how close to the runs you want to sleep. We choose the hotel with you and arrange your rental, your passes and any lessons. Your driver then collects you at your Istanbul hotel and takes you up to Uludağ, so the afternoon of the first day is already yours.

Two Days on the Mountain

Uludağ held the first international ski races in Turkey in 1955. Snow usually covers it from October to April. Runs and lifts change with the winter, however, so we check them for your dates. If the children are new to it, we arrange a lesson for them and a slower day for you.

Bursa on the Way Home

On the last day, take one more morning on the snow, or come down early for Bursa. The Grand Mosque stands in the old center of the first Ottoman capital, and our Bursa day trip shows you what else is there. Then your driver takes you back to Istanbul.

Short of time? Our Uludağ ski day does it there and back in one long day. How many of you ski, and how many are coming for the snow and the view? Tell us, with your dates, and we pick the hotel to match.
