About Victoria Zindell – Owner & Luxury Travel Advisor




Victoria grew up in Chicago, IL & later moved west to Scottsdale, AZ to begin her undergrad at Arizona State University. Here she began her career in the travel industry as a hotelier, representing some of the finest & most highly acclaimed hotels in the world. Through these unique experiences Victoria was led to her ultimate career path as a Luxury Travel Advisor. With her passion for travel & incredible attention to detail, planning tailor-made travel for others as her livelihood seem to be a natural fit.
As a woman who loves to travel near & afar, Victoria feels that travel opens us up to new perspective, provides personal growth and offers individuals an enriched life that includes much needed balance in our everyday busy lives. She takes incredible pride in her work & believes it is a distinct honor to be a meaningful part of the unforgettable adventures her clients and their loved ones embark on together.
Ms. Zindell began the Millennials in Travel chapter in Phoenix/Scottsdale which has helped to bring likeminded professionals together. This group has had an impact on a global level & has helped to drive tourism through the creative thinking of its members & the groups confidence about the future of the travel industry.
Despite her fear of heights, she has skydived, zip-lined & most recently bungee jumped off of the Kawarau Bridge in New Zealand. Needless to say, some of her personal favorite places to travel are more active destinations with exotic journeys and sightseeing. She also loves to spend her free time hiking and enjoys adventure.
As an Advisor who is focused on taking ordinary to extraordinary, Victoria lives by the following phrase “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” This is the motto she uses when planning itineraries for her clients, all of whom are extremely special to her. She attributes her success to her strong relationships with her clients along with her partnerships with her suppliers. Victoria is overly optimistic about the future and excited to share her love for travel with others.
