A superb trip round the Peloponnese
Two weeks of excellent archaeology, beautiful scenery and amazing food. We spent a full two weeks in the Peloponnese, visiting not only the well known archaeological sites (Mycenae, Corinth, Tiryns, Epidauros, Olympia, Bassae, Pylos, Messene etc) but also more remote and beautiful places such as the Mani peninsular, mountainous Dimitsana and Monemvasia.

Everywhere we had great local food - sausages with orange in the Mani, wild boar in Dimitsana, suckling pig in Mavromati, seafood all over!

Peter Sommer Travels is a small operator offering tours to several Mediterranean countries; I have used them many times (13 so far) and never been disappointed.





Fabulous Tour of the Pelopponese!

Peter Sommers is the best tour operator for people who want a small group experience and expert guides.





It was a great learning experience, guided by expert archeologists.
We travelled the Peloponnese peninsula visiting many interesting sites sucha as Olimpia, Micenea, Messenia. We enjoyed the local food and had tastings of local wines.At each site the guides would start with a general introduction and then we went around the place doing detailed viewing of interesting items.

Peter Sommer has top archeologists as guides and local archelogists as fixers. This combination allows for good understanding of the sites visited and close contact with local costumes.
