Galatians 2:11 tells us that Peter visited Antioch. Francis A. Sullivan SJ (From Apostles to Bishops) says that the reference to Peter (Cephas) in 1 Corinthians 1:12 means he probably also travelled there, otherwise there would have been no reason for Christians there to say "I am of Cephas." There is also a widely accepted tradition that Peter travelled to Rome and led the Christian community there, but this probably originated during the second century and is not supported by biblical or contemporary writings.
