Win an archaeological cruise in Turkey with BBC History Magazine

Peter Sommer Travels has teamed up with BBC History Magazine, the UK’s bestselling historical magazine, to offer one of our exceptional tours as a prize.

All you need to do is take a few minutes to complete the reader survey in their June issue. You will then be automatically entered into a prize draw with the chance to win an expert led historical tour around the ancient highlights of Turkey.

Have your say… and WIN an archaeological tour in Turkey! 

RELIVE HISTORY ON A TOUR LED BY AN EXPERT
This is your chance to win a fantastic trip for two to Turkey. The winners will discover some of the most enchanting ancient wonders of the world on an archaeological gulet cruise. Beginning in Bodrum, ancient Halicarnassus, you’ll visit some of the prettiest and most interesting sites in Turkey.

The trip is led by Dr Nigel Spivey of Cambridge University, author of The Ancient Olympics, and presenter of BBC series How Art Made the World. Tour highlights include the beautiful harbour at Myndos, the Roman Mosaics at Iasos, the crusader castle at Bodrum, and the temple of Apollo at Didyma. Of course it’s not all archaeology. You can relax in style, and enjoy fabulous food and superb sailing and swimming. 

To enter the prize draw, pick up a copy of the June 2008 issue of BBC History Magazine, and complete the survey, or you can do it online at BBC History Magazine
