What Our Clients Say About Their Travel Advisors
Aime Mushatt – Waite Park
Once again Bursch comes through!! Aime is amazing. Helping to plan a wonderful family experience on short notice. The Mexican riviera did not disappoint!!! Awesome time and experience!!
Bridget Vee – Waite Park
Every time I’ve traveled with Bursch it has been a fantastic experience. Bridget there is my go-to travel agent and she does such a great job!
Cara Hemmesch – Hutchinson
I could not recommend Cara more!! She was so helpful & answered any questions we had. Our whole trip went so smoothly and it was all because of her! 10/10 recommend!!
Carolyn Johnson – Marshall
Carolyn Johnson was a dream to work with. She completely took the stress out of planning our trip to Croatia, which couldn’t have been easy since there were 12 of us that she did the planning for. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Carolyn again.
David Zenchuk – Omaha
It was a pleasure working with David! He provided us with so much information and held our hands through the process as this was our first European trip. All went well with flights and transfers with the exception when returning from Dublin to Atlanta. Our flight left 1 1/2 hours late so we had to run to get our connecting flight with only a few minutes to spare. This was not his fault, Collette did not give us much layover time to begin with. David’s guidance and tips were very accurate. If we travel overseas again we will definitely go back to David at Bursch Travel.
Edie Lenz – Austin
I have had Bursch Travel arrange my travel for several years. When our vacation was abruptly interrupted by COVID, our agent was able to get us a flight within a day or two to get home. When our airline decided to cancel a flight, our agent Edie was able to find us a new flight, our vacation was not impacted. In both situations and others, it wasn’t me having to figure it out. In this day and age of “I book it myself” I will always “contact Edie at Bursch” because the price is minimal and the rest is stress free!! Thanks Edie!
Emily Hollermann – Waite Park
I chose Emily Hollerman of Burch Travel to help plan the trip of a lifetime to Alaska. She was amazing! She truly listened to what I wanted and carefully crafted a plan for my cruise. Emily was able to book our four couples amid ship on a Princess cruise. I had some issues with Princess and their app and she quickly fixed the the problem. Enlisting her services was money well spent. I had no travel hassles and everything went very smoothly. I would definitely use Emily and Burch Travel again.
Jennifer Nangle – Baxter
Our travel advisor is Jennifer Nangle. This was our 2nd trip experience with Jennifer. My husband Duane & I experienced a 36 day European vacation starting in Bordeaux, FR on board the Avalon. From there we went to Paris to continue our vacation. There were 3 other couples that joined us for these 2 parts to our vacation. It was a fabulous start to our vacation. After day 13 Duane & I continued on to the Hi-lites of Spain & Portugal 13 day bus trip. We finished the final 10 days of our vacation in Italy. There were 6 air flights, 2 train rides, car rental & 2 water taxis to get us from place to place. Starting with the initial call to Jennifer to begin the process of putting our trip together to the last details for car rental, final train rides & 2 water taxis in Venice, we cannot express enough how much we appreciate Jennifer because everything worked like clock work. The Pocket Travel she put together included itinerary for the entire trip! Thank you, Jennifer. It was a trip of a lifetime!
Jess Linquist – Rapid City
We worked recently with Jessica at Bursch Travel on a trip to Kauai. The resort was top notch and everything went smoothly from our airline flights to the car rental to our resort stay. Not to mention that the price on our package deal was very reasonable for a truly wonderful vacation. I book all of our trips through Jessica and wouldn’t think of using anyone else.
Jessica Ranweiler – Alexandria
Jessica Ranweiler, representing Bursch Travel, elevated my travel experiences through her great organizational skills, knowledge of the destination, and professional capabilities. She arranged aspects of my trip for time efficiency and maximized unique opportunities I wouldn’t have known about without her. Additionally, she also made my travel expenses less than what would have happened if I tried to do it myself. Thank you, Jessica and Bursch Travel.
Jessie Ferguson – Rapid City
Jessie was our travel agent, and I can’t stress enough, SHE IS AWESOME! We went on our first cruise, and she made it easy and seamless for us. From the flight to the cruise ship and back again. Our excursions and the whole experience … I am extremely grateful. Alaska was everything it is advertised to be and more.
Jill Ward – Waite Park
Jill Ward did a phenomenal job! My husband and I had a honeymoon planned to Aruba through Jill! When we were at the airport, our flight got canceled just 1 hour before we were supposed to board the plane with no more flights heading out there for a few days. I called Jill, and she had a whole new trip in Cancun booked for us within the same afternoon! A devastating start to the honeymoon turned into the best vacation I’ve ever had! 100% plan on going through Jill again! She gave us great guidance, and helped us tremendously when things weren’t going right and were out of our control!
Karen Reguse – Baxter
Karen did an amazing job setting up our get a way to Reno. We stayed at the Atlantis which was incredible.Great friendly people, newly remodel room and light breakfast, afternoon snacks and light bits early evening. So glad we decided on Atlantis as we walked to Peppermill, which was nice, but Atlantis was more of that local feel resort/casino. Thanks Karen!
Kassondra Ross – Alexandria
We recently worked with Kassondra at Bursch Travel for our family trip to Barcelona. We chatted over the course of a few days of what my family’s wishes were for this amazing trip and once Kassondra had all the information, she went to work. She set us up in an amazing hotel, worked to get the cheapest flights with decent departure times and continued to be in touch throughout the process. The trip went off without a hitch! I highly recommend getting in touch with Kassondra for any of your travel needs! We will definitely plan another trip with Kassondra in the future!!

Lisa Ackermann – Waite Park
We just got back from a wonderful Viking Cruise down the Rhine River. It all started with Lisa Ackerman at Bursch Travel Agency. She did an outstanding job from top to bottom getting us educated, organized and booked for our first ever trip to Europe. Her attention to detail is fantastic and her communication was spot on every step of the way. The cruise on the Viking Kara was nothing short of spectacular. A great ship, amazing crew, and not a glitch the whole way! Thank you Lisa and Viking Cruise Lines for a trip of a lifetime!
Lorna Slattery – Gillette
Lorna and Bursch Travel made our trip to Puerto Rico flawless. Our hotel in the States coming and going, our rental car, and our island hotel were all exactly what we needed. Thank you for everything you did for us. We’ll definitely be returning for your expertise on our next adventure.

Maggie was exceptional in preparing, informing, scheduling my vacation. She kept me updated on everything happening and was quick to respond with all my questions.

Peg Martin – Sheridan
We booked a trip with Peg Martin at Bursch Travel in Sheridan, WY for our daughter’s senior trip to Belize, and we could not have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Peg truly listened to what we hoped for, our budget, our schedule, and the kind of memories we wanted to create for our daughter’s milestone trip. What she delivered went far beyond anything we imagined. Every detail was handled with such care. The travel arrangements were seamless, the accommodations were absolutely incredible, and the entire trip flowed without a single issue. Peg curated experiences and recommendations that made us feel comfortable, excited, and completely taken care of. It was clear she put real thought into what would make this trip special for our family. What stood out most was how effortless she made everything feel. We were able to simply enjoy our time together without worrying about logistics or unexpected hiccups. That peace of mind is truly priceless, especially when traveling somewhere new. Peg helped create a trip our daughter will remember for the rest of her life, and for that, we are incredibly grateful. We have already recommended her to friends and family, and we will continue to recommend her to anyone who wants to explore the world with confidence and a trusted expert by their side. Bursch Travel, and Peg in particular, turned a dream trip into reality.
Roechelle Reney – Casper
Roechelle with Bursch Travel was AMAZING! From the beginning when we booked our trip to the very end, she was always available to conference when we had questions. She helped us find a vacation that was in our budget. When all the shenanigans in Mexico began, she was able to allay our concerns and give us real time information regarding the area we were going. When we went to book our excursions, she was able to provide first hand information about most of them! Hands down best vacation booking experience ever! She checked in on us to make sure we got home safely and that our trip was great! She wanted to make sure that we did not have any problems and if we did she wanted to make sure they got fixed. I recommend her to every person I know who wants to travel! You will not regret it!!
Sandie Anders – Fargo
This was our first time on a Group tour and also using a Travel Agent/Service and Bursch Travel did not disappoint at all! Sandie was phoenominal to work with. She was attentive, understanding and had great communication! I would highly recommend them for your next trip and planning! Thank you for an unforgettable trip of a lifetime to Peru and a great experience!
Sheila Elder – Hutchinson
Great work from Bursch and Sheila! Sheila made herself available to answer any questions or confusions there may have been. I felt “taken care of” while on my trip.
