Well, that took forever, but the phones are finally back on and the office open! Please feel free to give Roi a call or stop by during new business hours: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 9 am – 4 pm. In partnership with USA Tours, we are offering several popular tours. Don’t wait until they are full! Give Roi a call to book your tour!
Dear Customers,
Sunnyland Travel Center is excited to announce partnership with USA Tours to continue providing you with excellent tours and services! This is a fantastic decision that will be beneficial for everyone! We look forward to working with them and we hope you do too! Here is a message from our new partners:
“USA Tours is planning to develop most of the motorcoach tours that are on Sunnyland’s webpage and will honor the $100 deposit that many people have paid. We will not refund any deposit money (as we did not collect it); however, we will credit $100 to any tour you go on. There are a few Sunnyland trips we are not going to duplicate and, of course, you will be able to use your credit on another trip. The “Sunnyland” style tours that we run in 2023 will be at the exact same price as what’s in their catalog and on their webpage.
Just to be very clear, USA Tours is not purchasing Sunnyland Travel nor are we responsible for any of their debts. We are merely duplicating some of their tours and offering a $100 discount to any Sunnyland customer that has an unused $100 deposit. If you made a deposit greater than $100, or paid for a full trip, we will try our best to be able to offer you full credit. We will only be able to do this if most of those who signed up for a tour actually go on one.
If you are not familiar with USA Tours, we have operated since 1996 and currently have 11 full size motorcoaches. We provide charter services for schools, churches, and the military as well as very specialized motorcoach excursions. Last year (2022) we sold out 35 tours averaging about 8 days each and this year we will do the same. USA Tours is very fortunate to have survived the pandemic pretty much unscathed. Many bus and tour companies did not.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us, 1-800-492-2601, between 8 am and 5 pm during the week. If you are interested, please fill out the form below. In about 2 weeks we will send out confirmation notices and other information. All of these tours will originate in Springfield as they have in the past.
I promise you this is not a rogue effort to take over Sunnylands business but rather an attempt to make an unfortunate situation a little more attenable for everyone. I have talked to the owners of Sunnyland and assured them that I will turn all of their trips back over to them when they are able to open their doors again. I sincerely do wish them the best of luck.
Nicholas Barrack
Owner”

Come see us in our new office! We think you’ll like it… AND you may as well book a trip while you’re here! If you have any questions regarding any of our tours, don’t hesitate to call or stop by!
Please be advised when making your selection of tours with Sunnyland in 2023 that the payment option of credit card use will now have a fee of 3.5% added to your payment. We apologize for any inconvenience this may pose as we strive to provide legendary tours at affordable prices.

UPDATE: 04/19/2021
We have great news! 50% of the population, nationwide, has been at least partially vaccinated! Have you? While Sunnyland Travel Center makes no requirement regarding the vaccine, there are many desirable destinations that are requiring proof of vaccination before entering, so now is the time to do it. We strongly encourage all of our guests to get the vaccine; however, that is a decision to be made between you and your doctor. We all love to travel, and this is just a new step in the process!
UPDATE: 01/27/2021
The future is bright with Sunnyland! We are ready to travel again and hope you are too! We have trip after trip lined up for 2021 AND 2022 and we are excited to help you in booking! But DON’T WAIT!

We love to travel! We LIVE to travel! We believe travel should be entertaining, enlightening, and liberating. Right now, however, we simply find travel to be a challenge. Restrictions and requirements change regularly, and we not only have to comply with our local recommendations but of all the cities, counties, and states through which we travel. Incredibly challenging, indeed!
We have also heard from many of you expressing your concerns about travelling in the near future-and we are listening. We do not take the decision to cancel a tour lightly. This is our livelihood at stake. When we do cancel a tour, we have weighed the options carefully and we try to be the most forthcoming and fair as we can. We must be certain we are not under contractual obligations to our suppliers and that we can recoup our funds so that we may return them to you, if needed. This is an exceedingly long process-and it has become more difficult with so many of us working with a minimum of employees.
We also know that there are a few of you that would get on a coach with us tomorrow and GO! But it just is not that simple. There are too many unknowns-and we will not put profit over people. If we cannot deliver the type of experience that Sunnyland has been known for over the years, we cannot, in good faith, operate the tour. It cheats our reputation and most importantly, it cheats YOU, our valuable customers.
Sunnyland has been in Springfield for over 80 years, and we fully intend to continue operations into the future! With your patience and understanding we will all get through this and be back on the road when travel can be entertaining, enlightening and liberating once again!
