About Sunward Adventures

Sunward Adventures opened the doors to its storefront in 1989. They began as a two man show that used a host agency that went under. The two independent contractors went on to form their own host agency in 1993, SUNTAN - Sunward Travel Agent Network.Sunward Adventures offers programs starting at 70% commission and welcomes both seasoned travel agents, as well as those new to the mix. Their host agency program takes an a la carte approach, with agents able to add on marketing programs, Apollo and/or Traveport (for experienced GDS agents), and other services. Sunward Adventures has a $250 annual fee for all agents in their host agency program.
