TL;DR
The most convenient route is the ferry from Kabataş to Mudanya, then a minibus to central Bursa. Alternatively, take the Havaist bus or Marmaray train.
What the community said
The ferry from Kabataş to Mudanya is the most enjoyable option. From Mudanya, minibuses run to central Bursa. Comfortable and traffic-free.

Buses are an option but slow and inconvenient — you first need to reach the main bus terminal (otogar), which adds significant travel time.

Take the Havaist bus toward Bakırköy and get off at Ataköy (second-to-last stop), then switch to the Marmaray train to Florya Akvaryum station and walk from there.

The simplest Havaist bus route: ride to Aksaray and transfer to the tram, or go directly to Sultanahmet. Check schedules and fares at havaist.com.
