Bursa transfer

We’ve mentioned before that the most economical way to get to Bursa from Istanbul and back is by ferry across the Marmara Sea. But there are times when you might want or need a comfortable, convenient, door-to-door transfer option. That’s when Efendi Travel and Long Tourism can be of service.

For Istanbul to Bursa travel, Efendi Travel offers private shuttle service directly from either airport in Istanbul or from any hotel or address. We’ve used Efendi on a few occasions and have found their service to be reliable and professional. For us, Efendi has especially been useful for transit from Ataturk Airport to our Bursa address—especially after a long international flight with a heavy load of luggage.

For returns to Istanbul from Bursa, we’ve used Long Tourism. Long has provided for us on a few occasions friendly, fast, reliable service from our door to both Istanbul airports.

Visit Efendi Travel or contact their transfer department at transfer@ataturkairporttransfer.com. Long Tourism can be contacted at info@longtourism.com. In addition to transfer services, both companies also offer a range of tour options for tour groups of all sizes.

    Have any approximate pricing info for either company? Roughly how much was your transfer from Ataturk airport to Bursa with Efendi?

      Good question, Matt. For Efendi from Ataturk to Bursa, the price was in the range of $325-350 USD for 5 people and a lot of luggage in a private van. Long charged $200 USD for transfer from Bursa to Sahiba Gokcen and just under $300 USD for transfer from Bursa to Ataturk.
