Visiting the Peloponnese
A fourteen day coach tour of the best archaeological sites in this famous area of Greece. The tour was led by a very experienced archaeologist and a social historian who gave us detailed descriptions of the history of each site and its importance in Ancient Greece. The accommodation was excellent and the food amazing.

We have always found Peter Sommer Travel and their expert staff a pleasure to travel with. This explains why this tour of the Peloponnese was our eighth time with them in Greece, Turkey and Italy.

Exceptional
Cruising on a gulet in Turkey with an expert guide on board to lead you at the ancient sites visited, bringing their histoy and stories to life. Time to relax on board, to swim, snorkel, paddleboard, kyak or even float on a pink flamingo in the clear waters of the Aegean sea. Delicious meals prepared with fresh local ingredients, meals shared together around a table on the aft deck. This has to be the best way to visit these ancient sites, ...

This has to be the best way to visit these ancient sites, some well known, some not so, all remarkable.

Educating, fascinating
A stimulating tour through some of Greece's most famous, beautiful sights. Learned much, but also greatly enjoyed the collegial approach of the operators, who gladly took questions, provided detailed answers to many questions. Add to that the incredible food and lodging. A tour for the ancient history enthusiast!

Stunning Gulet Cruise from Bodrum to Ephesus
Hours of cruising along the turquoise coast of Turkey interspersed with guided tours of unforgettable archeological sites. The highlight was Ephesus but others along the way were important in their own right. Our expert guides contributed a wealth of knowledge and personal insights.

A perfect balance of living history, sun and bathing - 'Cruising to Ephesus'
We were 6 girlfriends who sat sail on a 'Peter Sommers Travel' gullet trip on the 2nd June 2024 from Bodrum, Turkey. A wonderful voyage following the Bodrum peninsula with stops at ancient sites to learn about the powerful history going back thousands of years. What made it absolutely perfect was Peter Sommer's talks about the sites we visited, he really made history come alive. Plus that in between we could swim and sunbathe - a perfect combina...

Exploring and relaxing along the coast of Turkey
This was a wonderfully relaxing and very educational walking tour along the Aegean Coast of Turkey. The use of the Gulet boats for overnight accommodations ensures a fantastic and memorable archeological trip.

Best tour we ever had...SIMPLY AMAZING
My wife and I took the Peter Sommer May 2024 Peloponnese tour. Best tour we ever had. The 2 guides were the most knowledgeable subject matter experts we ever encountered. The itinerary was excellent while the attention to the organizational details was simply outstanding. We plan to take many more Peter Sommer tours.

Fascinating archeology and history of Crete
Sites and museums the length and breadth of Crete gave us a thorough insight into the history and archeology of this fascinating island. Including some of the stories of the archaeologists who made the discoveries added a further level of interest.
