Note from the owners
We hope you and your family are healthy and happy. The Sunrise Tours family is safe and sound, eagerly planning for the resumption of travel. In over 25 years of business, we have faced a lot of challenges. Our father and co-founder, Jim Dalrymple, was leading a Sunrise tour group on a visit to Washington DC on September 11, 2001. They were in line to visit the White House when flight #77 hit the Pentagon. Amazingly, they were
able to tour the White House on September 12 before public tours were canceled for over two years. Tourism declined dramatically in 2001 and again during the Great Recession about 10 years ago, and after each downturn Sunrise Tours returned stronger and better than ever. We will do so again.
