ABOUT PETER SOMMER TRAVELS

Peter Sommer Turkey travel guide
Peter Sommer
In 1994, Peter Sommer walked 2,000 miles across Turkey, retracing the route of Alexander the Great, and in the process fell in love with the country, its ancient civilizations, and the Turkish people. A British archaeologist, filmmaker, and highly experienced tour guide, Peter created Peter Sommer Travels in 1996, offering unique escorted tours and cruises in Turkey and Greece.

Peter personally leads a large number of our archaeological tours. We also work with a number of other superb archaeologists and historians, noted for their knowledge and communication skills, who lead trips for us. To find out more about them visit the page about our Archaeological tour guides

A UK-based specialist travel operator, we provide a select number of holidays and vacations with a professional and above all personal touch. Our expertise stems from an especially intimate knowledge of Turkey and Greece - their geography, history, people, and much more. A great part of our success depends on our longstanding relationship with our partner travel agency in Turkey.

Over the past ten years we have created a rich and varied collection of escorted cultural tours - archaeology tours and cruises with a difference. Our tours in Turkey and Greece bring to life the rich heritage of these countries from profoundly ancient times to the modern era.

A small family run firm, we take pride in our personal approach, treating our customers as guests with extra special care - before, during, and after a tour.

Ewan, our office manager efficiently keeps track of all that is going on and will carefully look after you and all your travel needs.

Elin, Peter’s partner, is at the very heart of operations, looking after company strategy and marketing.

We are delighted to have Dr. Michael Metcalfe as part of our inner team. Michael has led a number of trips for us previously, and in 2009 joined us full time to direct his boundless energy into creating and leading new tours.

Speaking Greek, Italian, and Turkish, he is perfectly qualified to take us into new archaeological arenas.

Come sailing, cruising, or exploring with us, and see some of the very finest temples and tombs, baths and aqueducts, theatres and castles. Discover an archaeological paradise full of Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman treasures!

A recent traveller told us after a gulet cruise: “The hospitality aboard was exceptional, we felt like guests rather than customers.” This is very much what we strive for in all our holidays in Turkey and Greece.

If you have any questions, please get in touch. We look forward to helping you in any way we can.

Testimonial

From boarding the boat to the blessing of dolphins on the last day it was the best vacation of my life: quality learning, rest and relaxation, superb food, exercise, good company and fresh air. Walking in the footsteps of our ancestors was awesome. Nothing else can compare.
