Couples and Family Travel Specialist
I am an avid traveler who absolutely loves to plan incredible and memorable vacations. I grew up taking family road trips, and I have enjoyed visiting all 48 of the contiguous United States! I have visited the Hawaiian islands multiple times and completed my goal to visit all 50 US states with a cruise to Alaska just recently in August 2022. Cruising is an amazing way to see so many different places.
I have had the privilege of living in Israel for a time while studying abroad in college visiting many surrounding areas along with Jordan and Egypt. I have lived in Brazil and love the culture, language, and the people. I have traveled to Europe several times and spent time in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, England, and much of France. I absolutely love Europe and look forward to going back to explore Italy and the Mediterranean.
My latest travels this past year have taken me to Alaska, Jamaica, Maui, Costa Rica, and Mexico. There are so many incredible places to visit I just can't stay home.

Best trip!
Reviewed By Leanne - Gilbert, Arizona | Traveled to Maui Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Our decision to use Mindy to plan our trip to Maui was definitely worth it. She has such a great knowledge of everything travel and always knows the best attractions to see, best places to stay and how best to save us money. She was able to book our resort and rental car together to save us money. Our trip was the very best because of her. Thank you Mindy! We will definitely be back to use your services again!

Super Fun Trip to Mexico!!!
Reviewed By Lori - Mesa | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
What do you do when you love to travel but wonder how great of a deal you're getting on QUALITY flights and hotels??? OBVIOUSLY, YOU HIRE MINDY SHIRTS! Mindy was so fun to work with as we planned our fabulous trip to Playa del Carmen. She found multiple all inclusive resorts and explained the amenities of each so we could choose our preference. She found us direct flights at great times and made sure we had transportation from the airport to the hotel. Our resort was gorgeous! The swimming pools at the resort were amazing, which was a definite plus as the beaches in Playa del Carmen had a lot of seaweed. Mindy kept in constant communication and eagerly and excitedly helped us find flights and hotels as we planned, changed plans, planned again and finally decided. She went out of her way to make us aware of all the COVID requirements and sent us on our trip with her business card telling us to call if we needed anything. I would definitely hire Mindy again!

Mom’s Hawaii Retirement Trip!
Reviewed By Miranda - Yazoo City, MS | Traveled to Maui Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Mindy was absolutely amazing! I’ve never used a travel agent before, but I will not plan another trip without one! I originally wanted a travel agent just for the trip insurance and Covid concerns, but she took off all the stress of planning our trip! She was friendly and professional every time we talked and took into account the time difference between us and that I worked nights when calling me with updates. She was able to find everything we asked for and our time in Maui was everything we thought it would be! To top it all off, our first flight to Atlanta was delayed, and it shifted our trip back a whole day. I texted her that morning when we were told about the delay, and she was able to not only reschedule our whale watch tour and luau, she was able to schedule us an extra day of our trip at no extra cost since we had already paid for those certain amount of days! She went above and beyond with everything for us and I could not be more thankful!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends
Mindy Shirts responded:

Playa Del Carmen such fun!
Reviewed By Sherri - Mesa, AZ | Traveled to Playa Del Carmen ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We were lucky to find MINDY SHIRTS! Not only is she energetic, organized and knowledgeable she is tenacious in getting the best deal and putting every little detail into place. Mindy planned a fantastic trip for us to Playa del Carmen, Mexico…she found multiple all inclusive resorts and explained the amenities so we could choose and our direct flights (with a hotel transfer) were cheaper than we could find on our search engines. We ended up deciding on an all inclusive 5-star hotel that was cheaper than an average hotel. YAY! Mindy took care of all of our COVID travel questions and she checked with us multiple times throughout the process to make sure everything was what we had hoped for...she joined in our excitement as we counted down the days to departure, sent us reminders of what we needed to do, and then even endured looking at our pictures once we returned! Mindy is without a doubt the best and I would highly recommend her! I would recommend this agent to my family and friends
Mindy Shirts responded:
Thank you Sherri for the review! I love that it all worked out so well and look forward to working with you again.

One Person You Want on Your Side for Travelling
Reviewed By Arizona Native - Mesa, Arizona | Traveled to Boston ~ Massachusetts ~ USA
I can't say enough about how good it has been working with Mindy! She not only makes great arrangements and adjustments to those arrangements after we get closer to trip time, but she has gone above and beyond the call of duty to provide helpful information and guided us to other resources that have made our trips much better than if we had planned it all on our own. She has always been sensitive to finding good rates on transportation and accommodations. She seems to continually be on the look out to make our trips more enjoyable, even after we have booked the trip. We have not had to deal with any changes or problems during travel because Mindy does such a great job of thinking of everything and getting it right beforehand.
