About Me

My name is Cheryl Burden and I am the proud owner of Burden-Free Travel, LLC. I am a professional travel advisor, cruise specialist, and group vacation planner proudly affiliated with Destinations 24/7 Travel Services.  I specialize in customized travel planning for Europe, Alaska, the Caribbean, Australia, and New Zealand, creating seamless cruise and land vacations from start to finish.  I love working on group cruise trips for work groups, family reunions, sports teams, or just friend groups.

As a young person, I had a goal of visiting all 50 states. As I began seeing this beautiful country, my desire to experience new cultures and lands grew. My new goal was to visit every continent. By the time I was 30 , I had visited 40 states, and 10 different countries.  That was many years ago, and I can now proudly say that I have tasted my way around the world with 5 continents under my belt. 

Since 2018, I've personally traveled across North America, Asia, Africa, Europe, Alaska, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean, researching destinations, resorts, cruise ships, and experiences.

My goal is to help my clients have a burden free, and smooth trip. I only book accommodations that I would select for myself or one of my loved ones. I also want to go the extra mile by helping my clients select activities and excursions that suit their lifestyle. 

My motto is: Burden-free, makes it easy!

Worry Free Caribbean Trip
Reviewed By Cris P - Cols, OH | Traveled to Caribbean Sea | At Sea | At Sea
I used BurdenFreeTravel with Cheryl as my travel advisor for a week cruise in the Caribbean with Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas. Cheryl provided excellent communication. Cheryl quickly responded to any questions. I had a payment plan setup and Cheryl handled all details and payments with care and security. I enjoyed that she provided a link on things to do if l choose to do excursions in the port cities l visited. I plan to use the services of Cheryl in planning my next trip.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

We had an awesome time!

We went on our first Royal Caribbean cruise and it was even better than anticipated. I am not a calm traveler but the cruise experience was amazing. From the food to the scenic views to port stops, we had a blast! Cheryl did an awesome job planning it. She goes the extra mile to keep you informed along the way!
