I recently went on the Honolulu, Hawaii trip and it was amazing. Our tour director Phyllis did an incredible job - making sure that all 24 guest were well taken care of and if any accommodations needed to be made she was right on it. I love her dearly and feel like she is part of my family. We had the best group of people on this trip and everything was just a blast. It was a perfect balance between activity and free time. I really enjoyed the flying trip :) We got to see some of the most incredible places. read more

Traveled to Liberty, NC to the Liberty Showcase Theater for the Elvis show this evening. Everyone was courteous and professional from the time we boarded till the time we got off the bus. The rain was terrible but the driver made sure the ride was smooth as silk. I will be traveling with this company again! read more

Great busses & great drivers. We had a fabulous experience with Sunshine Tours. Highly recommend them. Ben was a great driver for us.

This bus company was used to take children to the North Carolina zoo this past Friday with my work at the Boys and Girls club. On our way home, the air condition did not work and it was 90 degrees outside. The bus driver did not seem to think it was a big deal until we had a bus full of children throwing up and 2 staff passed out due to heat exhaustion, resulting in having to go to the hospital. This was absolutely ridiculous considering the bus driver ran the air the ENTIRE 4-5 hours we were at the zoo. I would highly recommend an Abbot bus if your ever going on a trip and cannot take a car, have never had a problem on an Abbot bus! read more

They false advertise, rushed us through our trip and refused to refund portions of the trip. Do not take the Whale watching tour its a total scam they canceled the key selling point attration, canceled the seafood restauraunt on the beach. The tour guide phyllis cryed the rest of the trip we paid for,that she was "so sorry we didnt get what we paid for" which was an extra nail on the coffin of the the tour. Meanwhile the scammer VP of operations refused to refund me the portions of the trip unfullfilled and made all types of excuses. Im just grateful I tryed one cheaper trips and not the longer expensive trip, which I was planning on investing in if things went generally well on this cheaper trip. read more

I worked for Sunshine Tours for a decade back in the late 1980's and 90's and worked directly with the founder of Sunshine Tours (Carroll Stone, and his wife Joyce). The goal was and continues, to provide Bus Tours across the US and Canada that ranged from 1 day trips to 31 days (Alaska & Canada's Yukon). So much love and care went into every tour offered and we all became one big Sunshine Family. The staff running the office today still continues working hard to do the same thing every day. Bus tours can experience unexpected delays and or schedule adjustments and overcoming them can be challenging. I know that Sunshine Tours takes great pride in their fleet and always has strived to provide the best tours on the best fleet of Motorcoaches. Sunshine Tours was one of the first in the industry to make all tours non smoking for safety and health. The company was the first to take a row of seats out to increase passenger leg room and one of the first to add VCR/DVD's. Sunshine was also the first to add automatic transmissions to their buses, which provided a more comfortable ride to their traveling family. Almost all companies have followed these Sunshine first. I loved working for Sunshine Tours and will always remember with great appreciation and love, everyone who became part of the Sunshine Family and as well so many wonderful people I worked alongside with, to make every tour possible. Several continue to work alongside others in the office now and on the road, to continue providing the best Bus Tour vacations available in the industry. I hope you have an opportunity to travel with Sunshine Tours some day and experience what I experienced over those 10 years. I also hope anyone who has experienced less than what I have conveyed above, will give Sunshine Tours and their wonderful staff another opportunity to show what they do best... and that is to provide the best service possible. With sincere regard and much love to all of the beautiful people who I had the wonderful opportunity to travel with in the Sunshine Family. Respectfully, J.P. Creamer read more

My pre-teen daughter recently took a trip on a Sunshine Tour bus. The first bus broke down for about two hours. Eventually the driver was able to get the bus running. Sunshine Tours sent a replacement bus the next day. On the way home, the replacement bus broke down and stranded about 35 children along the highway. Due to the breakdown, the bus did not have any air conditioning. The bus company operator did agree to pay for hotel rooms for the children. It did take some prodding to get him to agree to this reasonable request. On a second trip, the company redeemed their reputation. Based on the second trip, I am giving Sunshine Tours 4-Stars instead of 1-Star for the first trip. read more

Recently took a trip to Canada and it was obvious the first day there were issues with the a/c. During the hottest part of the day there was no cool air. At least five days out of seven had no cool air in the afternoon. Got very miserable. Also the bus did not have any way to charge electronic devices. Called the office and voiced my concern but got the impression they really do not care. Took a trip last summer and there was a/c problems on that trip but it only lasted a few days. Probably will never travel with Sunshine again. read more

My child was on a school trip with this group. On the first day she spent 4 hours on the side of the road during TWO separate breakdowns. The first was a breakdown from one of the buses on the caravan (fuel filter, usually a maintenance issue). The second was a breakdown of her own bus. She spent 2.5 hours on the side of the road when the hotel was less than 20 minutes away! Her entire bus of children ate dinner at 9 PM, 3 hours later than planned. No apologies, no attempt to put them on other buses or send a bus back. It was appalling. When 2 different buses break down in one day, you have to wonder about their reliability. In the end I was so worried about this bus service I was grateful she came home in one piece. read more

Went to Southern Christmas show in Charlotte and enjoyed the ride up and back. Tour guide and bus driver were very friendly. We played games and sang songs on the way up and the way back. I had a wonderful time. read more

First the tour destination itself was good and I enjoyed it. The bus driver (Maxwell) was outstanding and a great driver. The bus tour guide (Connie) however was much less than average. Pointed out ridiculous sites, told silly jokes and was in love with her microphone. After a day of her I just wanted off the bus so I didn't have to listen to her any more. These tours are fine but the guide makes a HUGE difference. That's the chance you take with these bus tours no matter which company you travel with. Been on other tours in the past and Connie made this trip the worse yet. When she pointed out a Sheetz convenience store saying how nice it was that was it!! Maybe time to retire Connie???? read more

Called them today asked about a few of their tours, also asked if you could have a seat near the front of the bus held for you, was told ONLY if you get sick, and then they will have to have a doctors excuse, and only then would a seat be saved for someone. Explained that I would be on oxygen and need a set close to the front of the buss, Was told I AM SORRY , but that's our policey. read more

Has anyone ever been on the Thanksgiving Macy's Parade trip with this company before? It is hard to get additional trip info from them by phone. read more

I, along with several other people, on my Alaska tour this past summer (2015), were not pleased overall. The "Inside Passage" ferry ride had to be cancelled at the last minute (according to the Sunshine people) and the company substituted a train ride. The literature I received said the train would leave from Whitehorse and end up in Skagway. It did not. The train left from Fraser and ended up in Skagway--a much shorter trip. The company does not admit to promising one thing and delivering another--something I consider to be a breach of trust. In addition, the bus driver (in my opinion) was unsafe. He would take his hands off the steering wheel at times as well as fiddle around with his mounted Garmin Nuvi. I did not feel safe. He also let the latrines "fester"--quite an unpleasant experience. He did not wash the windows regularly and he shouted at other drivers, "You dingbat," and "You idiot." I contacted the BBB (Better Business Bureau) regarding the problem and after some correspondence between the BBB, Sunshine Tours, and me, BBB declared the case "closed" with an "unsatisfied customer." If Sunshine Tours would have admitted to their error and offered some kind of compensation for their having "messed up," I probably would not be leaving this negative review. read more
