Hi I’m Debbie Johnson - your personal Travel Counsellor.

I am based in Grantham, Lincolnshire and work with customers both locally and nationally.

With over 35 years of experience in the travel industry, I’ve been fortunate to turn my passion for discovering the world into a rewarding career. My personal travels have taken me across the globe — from Australia, Thailand, Dubai, the Caribbean, and the Seychelles, to the vibrant cities of New York, Florence, and Prague, to the amazing experiences in Kenya, Antarctica, and South Africa. I’ve explored everything from cruises and city breaks to safari adventures and skiing holidays, and I’m excited to use that first-hand experience to help you plan your perfect getaway. Wherever you are looking to visit, I can help!

As a mum of two teenagers, aged 20 and 18 I understand the evolving needs of families, children, and teens, and I know how to build holidays that keep everyone happy. I also travelled extensively prior to having children and can recommend resorts and accommodation to suit all your needs no matter how your party is made up.

I was proud to be awarded Gold Travel Counsellor status in October 2014, a recognition given to the top 10% of the company. I’m also a Cruise Ambassador for Travel Counsellors with extensive knowledge of cruise ships, itineraries, and the best offers available. Whether it’s your first time at sea or you’re a seasoned cruiser, I can help match you with the right ship and sailing to suit your style and budget.

Being part of the Travel Counsellors community means that I have a network of over 1,600 Travel Counsellors worldwide so whether it be a resort, accommodation or a recommendation for a restaurant for that special occasion - I can find out the information for you!

I am able to offer a flexible service not restricted to office hours and can be available at a time convenient to you. With our own ATOL licence and full financial protection, you can book with total confidence and be rest assured in the knowledge that I will get the holiday that is right for you!

I am lucky enough to say that I love the job that I do. I get a personal satisfaction in helping my customers put together their dream holiday - let’s face it, we work hard all year for our holidays and I will take a personal responsibility in making sure your travel arrangements run as smoothly as possible.

I look forward to helping you,

You can call me or send me a WhatsApp - 01476 848480 or email me debbie.johnson@travelcounsellors.com

What my customers say

We are regular Travelers with TC and our wonderful counsellor Debbie Johnson never fails to give us wonderful personal quality advice and care .On several occasions now Debbie has turned up trumps sorting us out if there’s been any sort of unforeseen problem which has derailed our holiday plans, for example this year it was the Gulf War and Debbie got us home safe and sound with minimal of fuss for us and a huge amount of effort on her behalf I’m sure. TC offer the best Travel service.

Nothing is too much trouble for Debbie. She understands her clients needs and does her best to meet (if not surpass them). Her communication is brilliant, clear and concice. She totally delivers on her committments. All this with a smile and a laugh - I have already recommended Debbie's services to numerous of my freinds and family and will continue to do so. In my world where time is limited and every holiday I book is special time for me to spend with my wife.

Debbie is just the best. She puts together some sample travel plans which fit our preferences and then, when we have chosen, she sorts out the details while we are on the phone and, hey presto! great holiday, ready to go.
