Turning Tourists Into Experts
The most powerful tourism platform for history-rich destinations is coming back, rebuilt from the ground up with AI. More stories. More depth. More of what makes a place unforgettable.
Discover Tourburst
Every destination has different people doing different jobs. Pick yours and we will show you the tools built for it.
Lodging-tax boards and development organizations invest in tourism and rarely see what it returns. A regional app shows where visitors actually go, what they engage with, and how long they stay, and our planning work turns that into funding models and product decisions your board can defend.
Events, itineraries, stories, maps, and the businesses that make your town worth the stop, all in one branded app your community owns, with analytics that tell you what worked. We build it with you and keep it alive year-round.
Visitors plan trips in our apps. Your tours, routes, and stories sit inside that planning, with QR bridges from print, audio experiences, and a web presence that actually gets found.
A live pin on the regional map, presence in the app, a website that works, visibility where people search, and a steady drumbeat of promotion through every season. You run your business; the coverage runs itself.
The Tourburst app is coming back, rebuilt from the ground up. Join the waitlist and be first in line when it launches in your region.
About Us
Tourburst is the tourism platform of BTE Global, built for history-rich destinations and the people who bring them to life. We pair technology with hands-on business consulting, because software alone never made a region prosper.
Three promises to every community we serve: your story preserved, your story told, and everyone who carries it thriving.
Every community carries a story generations in the making: the voices, the places, the traditions, the records that say we were here. We help you gather it before time takes it, and turn it into a living collection your children's children can hold onto.
Heritage was never meant to sit in a drawer. We bring your culture out where everyone can feel it, travelers and locals, schoolkids and scholars, through apps, websites, audio tours, events, and stories told where people plan and where they stand.
When a community shares its story, everyone at the table shares the reward: the shopkeeper, the museum, the town itself. Year-round promotion, real visitor insight, and planning that turns pride of place into livelihoods, season after season.
History
Nine years in market. Seven cities. Ten thousand downloads.
Tourburst began as a mobile guide for history-rich towns and earned its following one visitor at a time. Now it returns as a full platform, rebuilt around everything we learned about what makes a place unforgettable.

Services
