Discover some of the Ancient Wonders of the World - from Troy to Ephesus - in Turkey.
Sail aboard a luxurious gulet on an archaeological cruise along Turkey’s turquoise coast, and enjoy total relaxation, beautiful food, and superb swimming - the perfect vacation. Or explore some of the finest historical sites in the world by land, retracing the route of Alexander the Great.
In 1994, Peter Sommer walked 2,000 miles across Turkey, following in the footsteps of Alexander the Great, and in the process fell in love with the country, its ancient civilizations, and the Turkish people. For the past 11 years, Peter, a British archaeologist and documentary maker, has been leading and organising exceptional escorted tours and holidays in Turkey.
A UK-based specialist travel operator, we provide a select number of holidays and vacations with a professional and above all personal touch. We take only small groups (max 16 on land, 14 by sea) of like-minded people, travelling in an easy-going, friendly, and informal style.
We’re delighted that people choose to travel with us again and again.
"we so enjoyed the gulet cruise. We loved the Almira with its delightful and efficient crew, and those beautiful sites explained with such passion and sensitivity. Well done indeed.”
Professor Richard Holmes, presenter of BBC TV series including War Walks, and author of ‘Tommy’, ‘Redcoat’, and ‘Dusty Warriors.

The gulet Almira is a gorgeous boat, with a crew both friendly and professional...it couldn’t have been more comfortable… We felt we were on the best boat in Turkey no matter where we were.
