Company  Information

 

  History

   Sunny Land Tours was established in 1964 by Elie Sidawi.  Elie grew up in Lebanon, and as a young man he was working for one of the largest tour operators in the world.  He started Sunny Land Tours immediately after coming to the United States, and in a mere couple years Sunny Land grew to be one of the largest specialists to Egypt and the Middle East, and had been known as a Mediterranean/Middle East specialist tour operator until early 1980s. 

   As a result of this move, Sunny Land expanded its presence in Costa Rica, with a 100 acre Rain Forest Lodge at Chachagua, and maintains a service office in San Jose with a staff of 20 dedicated personel to ensure the best service rendered to our clientele.Photo of Lori Sidawi
