BursaFAQs
Why is visiting the Sahaba shrines in Istanbul significant?
Istanbul is home to many companions of the Prophet (Sahaba) who arrived during the city's earliest sieges. We take a soulful journey through history by visiting these sacred sites, especially the final resting place of Abu Ayyub al-Ansari, the spiritual guardian of the city.
What does the Bursa excursion include?
In Bursa, the first capital of the Empire, we visit the magnificent Grand Mosque (Ulu Cami)—one of the most revered in the Islamic world—the masterfully tiled Green Tomb, and the shrines of the founding fathers, Osman Gazi and Orhan Gazi.
What will we witness at Sultanahmet Square?
You will explore where Byzantine and Ottoman legacies intertwine, featuring the majestic Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque, Topkapi Palace (home to the Sacred Relics), and the architectural marvel known as the Blue Mosque.
Are airport transfers and accommodations included?
Absolutely. From the moment you arrive at the airport until your final departure, every transfer and hand-picked accommodation is meticulously planned, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the spirituality of the journey.
