About Us


Why Sunrise Tours?

Sunrise Tours is a family-owned and -operated group tourism company, first started by Jim and Charlene Dalrymple in the basement of their St. Louis County home in 1993 – although their first tour did not materialize until 1994. Now run by their son, Brent, Sunrise Tours has flourished into a successful group tour operator, taking pride in its service to the St. Louis area and beyond.
