Very impressive, is it something that is just up to Google or you actively created?

		<description>IN THE PRESS:
We are delighted to announce that National Geographic Traveler, the world’s most widely read travel magazine, has chosen our In the Footsteps of Alexander the Great tour as one of the world’s Top Ten learning holidays.   

This list of the top ten cultural and educational retreats was shortlisted from a recently published National Geographic book - The 100 Best Worldwide Vacations to Enrich Your Life by Pam Grout, which featured a number of our tours. You can read more at Alexander the Great's tour is tops! 

As if we weren't flattered enough, we've just had a series of mentions in newspapers in the USA. The Washington Post's travel editor, K.C. Summers, suggested: 

"For a high-end but tempting tour, take a look at Peter Sommer Travels... he offers tours and “quiet cruises” for small groups, with expert guides leading the way." 

2009 TOURS
We are delighted to announce the first of our trips for 2009. We'll be releasing more dates for other tours shortly. We recommend you book your places soon - 5 places out of 16 are already reserved on our Alexander tour, 4 out of the 8 cabins are reserved on our May family cruise, and 4 out of the 8 cabins are reserved on our Halicarnassus to Ephesus tour. 

In the Footsteps of Alexander the Great April 18 - 6 May 

Family cruise - From Bodrum to Didyma May 23 - 30 

From Halicarnassus to Ephesus Aug 29 - 12 Sept 

Family cruise - Sailing the Lycian Shore Oct 24 - 31 

The Bodrum Cup Race Oct 10 - 26
A brand new unique tour for 2009. A 2-week archaeological cruise on the Almira - but with a difference. You'll be doing the sailing... under the expert guidance of the boat's crew. For the first week you'll literally be learning the ropes. Then in the 2nd week you'll be taking part in the celebrated Bodrum Cup - a 5 day race featuring about 100 classic wooden yachts. If that weren't enough, you'll be shown around some amazing ancient sites by Peter, nevermind superb swimming opportunities. More details to follow. 
 
 
        

ALMIRA PRIVATE CHARTER
Our 8-cabin flagship gulet, Almira, is available for charter for 1-week this August 16-23. If you'd like to have this beautiful boat all to yourselves, do get in touch. 

GULET BLOG
We had our first ever guest blogging on the Almira during our June Carian Coast cruise. Take a look at Adrian Martin's Turkey travel blog. He has some wonderful images in an accompanying photo gallery. 
 


TESTIMONIALS
This is what some guests have said about our trips this spring : 

We loved being with Jennifer Tobin. She was insightful, knowledgable and wonderfully enthusiastic. The boat was sensational, much more than we ever expected and the crew excellent. The food was fabulous. Ben and I both agreed that this was our best most memorable vacation and we’ve had many in the last 50 years or so - on and off sailboats. Thanks so much Peter.”  
Joan Giordano, Bodrum to Didyma May 08 

"I can't say enough good things about this trip. The entire Almira crew were exceptional. I have never eaten so many delicious meals. Bayram can cook for me any time! Captain Mehmet was friendly, helpful, and obviously loves his job. Suleyman was so kind and polite as well, it was really the kind of trip where it wasn't 'crew and passengers' but all just friends out on a boat for a week." 
Wayne Prescott,  Bodrum to Didyma June 08 
         
         

RECIPE OF THE MONTH

Menemen – Scrambled eggs with tomatoes &#38; peppers 

A lovely dish with a marvellous name and just perfect for summer. It’s fast and easy to prepare and extremely nutritious. It’s a favourite for breakfasts in Turkey, but it also goes down scrummily well as a bright and tasty lunch or a quick supper. I’m getting hungry just writing this!

		<description>Hi, I'm planning to visit Lake Vallecito 8/7 thru 8/9 and looking for a place to stay. I understand there are cabins available and wanted to know if there is a restaurant nearby if we don't feel like cooking.

Also, what hotel accomodations are nearest the Lake that are reasonalbe rates?

Thanks, Laura</description>
