General Note

Cruising has become our forte.  We are CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) affiliates, and we have attained the prestigious accreditation as MCC’s (Master Cruise Counselors).  We represent all the major lines, including Disney, so we are able to offer unbiased advice.  Owners Nancy and Lon Eastlund have been on a combined 86 cruises since 1987, so the knowledge base at Sun Tours is extensive.

Why has Cruising become so popular?

For a number of reasons.  Read our take here.

Escorted Group Cruises


Each year, we assemble 2 to 5 itineraries, catering to the travel interests of our customers, and then we personally escort those groups! This results in extra peace of mind, extra savings, and extra fun for everyone.  The atmosphere is family-like.   Usually, a cruise is the centerpiece of the itinerary, to which we add optional pre-cruise and post-cruise land tours in nearby destinations.  Optimum group size is 30
to 50 persons.  This makes land excursions and modules manageable for us and cost-effective for our you.  Rather than limit ourselves to the Shore Excursions and add-ons offered by the various Cruise Lines, we make our own arrangements and prepay for all the airfares, hotels, motor coaches, drivers, local guides, meals (when appropriate), pre-travel luncheons to discuss strategy, embroidered souvenir logo items (such as polo shirts, jackets, hats, and bags),and just about everything else. This makes us more cohesive and promotes that family spirit. After a day or two, you will know everyone in the group, and become friends for life.  No grumps allowed!  Participants typically come from Hawaii and the U.S. mainland. If you already have the nucleus for a group, bring it to us. We can promote it, expand upon it,  and create an escorted extravaganza suited to your needs!
