    EXPERT-LED PETER SOMMER ARCHAEOLOGICAL & CULTURAL TRAVELS TOURS & GULET CRUISES 2021 PB Peter Sommer Travels Peter Sommer Travels 1 WELCOME WHY TRAVEL WITH US? TO PETER SOMMER TR AVELS Writing this in autumn 2020, it is hard to know quite where to begin. I usually review the season just gone, the new tours that we ran, the preparatory recces we made, the new tours we are unveiling for the next year, the feedback we have received and our exciting plans for the future. However, as you well know, this year has been unlike any other in our collective memory. Our exciting plans for 2020 were thrown into disarray, just like many of yours. We were so disappointed that so many of you were unable to travel with us in 2020. Our greatest pleasure is to share the destinations we have grown to love so deeply with you our wonderful guests. I had the pleasure and privilege of speaking with many of you personally during the 2020 season. I was warmed and touched by your support, your understanding, your patience, and your generosity. All of us here at PST are extremely grateful and heartened by your enthusiasm and eagerness to travel with us when it becomes possible. PST is a small, flexible, and dynamic company. We have weathered countless downturns during the many years we have been operating. Elin, my wife, and I have always reinvested in the business with long term goals and are very used to surviving all manner of curve balls, although COVID-19 is certainly the biggest we have yet faced.

Milli parklara olan turistik talebin artması milli parkların daha fazla korunmasına yönelik faaliyetleri beraberinde getirmektedir. Milli parkların korunması doğal kaynakların devamlılığı açısından hem ulusal hem de yerel ölçekte önem taşımaktadır. Özellikle korunması gereken bir alanın milli park ilan edilmesi, milli park çevresinde yaşayan yerel halkın koruma kullanma dengesini değiştirdiği için bu durum yerel halk tarafından kimi zaman olumsuz algılanabilmektedir. Bu araştırmada, İğneada yerel halkının milli parklara yönelik farkındalıkları ve İğneada Longoz Ormanları Milli Parkı’na ilişkin görüş ve düşünceleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır.
