Utah Excursions & International Excursions

Rare & Unique Experiences In Utah, Costa Rica, Norway & Around The World

Transformative Journeys Rooted in Nature & Culture

Sunnyside Expeditions was founded on a simple idea: travel should deepen our connection to the land and the people who know it best. Every trip is designed with purpose and led by expert local and indigenous guides who share their knowledge, stories, and traditions along the way.

These aren’t tours that rush from one attraction to the next. They’re immersive experiences built around respect for nature, cultural exchange, and a deeper appreciation for the world around us. Guests might track wildlife across open landscapes, take part in traditional indigenous practices passed down for generations, or explore places where human footprints are rare.

Each journey is intentional. Every step is taken with respect. Sunnyside Expeditions exists to bring people closer to the earth, to the cultures that protect it, and to the stories that deserve to be heard. Travel should be more than just seeing a place – it should be about understanding it, honoring its past, and supporting its future. By choosing to journey with us, you’re not just exploring landscapes; you’re engaging with the people who call them home and becoming part of something bigger. We look forward to sharing these experiences with you.

						Park City Experience Garth was a great tour guide. He was flexible with some last minute changes and provided a lot of knowledge and patience answering questions!

						Excellent island visit The island visit was incredible! We saw lots of bison and saw some antelope. The views from the top of the island were spectacular. Watching the sunset, in such an amazing setting, was the highlight of our whole trip. Our guide, Rick, was personable and knowledgeable about the island and area.

						Fantastic, Very Chill, Tour of Antelope Island and Great Salt Lake at Sunset This tour, with Garth as our guide, was fantastic. We were picked up at a hotel very close to ours, and only had one other person on it. I can't imagine that's a typical thing, but it made for a very chill tour...we never felt rushed and always had plenty of time to just soak in the beauty of the park. While the weather was cloudy, we were still treated to an amazingly beautiful sunset, and before that we got to see fantastic views, buffalo, antelope, and other animals wandering the park. Garth gave us plenty of time to take pictures and just soak it all in. We couldn't have asked for a better tour, a better guide, or a more beautiful place. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who's visiting the Salt Lake City area.

						Great experience to know the wildlife of Utah. Phil is the best. He is really nice and is full of knowledge of the area. The tour is excellent; I highly encourage anyone to do it if staying in Salt Lake City. You will see a ton of wildlife from a close (but safe) distance, and Phil provided me with Binoculars and a Telescope. The sunset over the lake, reflected in the mountains, was unique.

						Excellent and scenic afternoon on Antelope Island Great trip. Garth, driver and guide, was very friendly knowledgeable and an excellent driver. Beautiful scenery on Antelope Island and amazing views of Salt Lake at sunset. We got close to herds of bison and saw owls, hawks and other birdlife.

						Beautiful and amazing trip! Garth was our guide and he was fantastic! From communicating in advance of the trip and all the way until he dropped us off. This was my 50th birthday and a perfect end to our trip. He was very knowledgeable about the area and all the animals which we saw a lot of. We saw antelope, coyotes and many herds of bison as well as smaller groups which we were able to see close up. We got to spend a lot of time taking photos. The ending sunset view was amazing and he took photos for us so my husband and I could be in them together! This was a wonderful memorable experience!

						An amazing half day trip option It was an amazing half day trip. Our tour guide Cramon, was friendly, knowledgeable and constantly checked in on his guest to make sure they were having fun and safe. We were fortunate to see the wildlife and despite the rainy weather it was a lovely afternoon. I would definitely recommend if you have an afternoon free and a short trip.

						Breathtaking Views I took this tour with a group of friends. The views of wildlife and the sunset were incredible. The final trek up the main hill was challenging but rewarding. The van transportation was very convenient and the tour guide was both knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend for anyone visiting the Salt Lake area.
