My name is Deborah Little. I am a travel agent based in Lindley, Huddersfield but I cover the whole of the UK.
I have worked in the travel industry for over 34 years and pride myself on offering professional, friendly and excellent customer service. The service I offer to my clients is totally impartial, professional and confidential. I aim to exceed the level of customer service you would expect to receive in a high street agency or on the internet. My aim is to get to know you personally - your needs, wants and desires. Your aspirations and dreams. And then I'll build travel plans that suit you and your budget perfectly. Hopefully creating lasting memories.
I have been a Travel Counsellor since 2004, previously working for a multiple travel agency on the high street in Huddersfield, Halifax and Cleckheaton.
I have visited many places on holidays and educational trips including Florida, Las Vegas, New York, The Caribbean, Thailand, Australia, South Africa, and Dubai, many of the Greek Islands, Canary Islands, Turkey, Greece and more. I have also been on a few cruise holidays as well as ski holidays.
I love being able to spend time searching for your perfect holiday, whether it be a family holiday, business trip, honeymoon, wedding abroad or a ski holiday. I am a Florida expert so please get in touch with me for your Florida Holiday plans. As I work from home I am available at a time to suit you, including evenings and weekends.
So, whatever your travel requirements are, give me a call or email me and I will be only too happy to turn your holiday dreams into a reality.
I look forward to hearing from you.

A very enjoyable experience choosing our holiday with Deborah. We had a fabulous holiday some years ago to New York and Seattle arranged by Deborah but on a couple of previous years we were unable to proceed, through no fault hers, after she must have spent a long time looking for a holiday for us. She is very professional and at no time this year did we feel uncomfortable about previous enquires. I will definitely as always recommend her to family and friends. She is so easy to talk to nothing is too much trouble.

I just wanted to say thank you very much for everything in relation to our trip to Rome. After 13 hours stuck on the M62 and various roads trying to get to Manchester airport you made the whole disappointment about not being able to get there so much better by dealing with everything so quickly and effectively.
Although we are obviously gutted not to make our holiday but getting a full refund means we can rebook and have something to look forward to. We will definitely be using your service again and highly recommend it to others.

As a last minute getaway, my husband and I were not expecting the quality of our holiday! From the minute we rang our Travel Counsellor Deborah to the moment we arrived back to snowy England! The flights and transfers were excellent, well organised and easy. The hotel was amazing with the best food ever enjoyed in any hotel let alone those of all-inclusive deals. The entertainment in the hotel was fantastic, three quizzes per day, loads of games going on in all aspects. And a show every night to a very high standard! The friendly staff we encountered had us amazed. We will definetely be re-visiting Cyprus and will ALWAYS recommend Deborah who I always get the distinct feeling that nothing is too much trouble.

We booked again with Debbie as last year our holiday was spot on. We are going to Mexico and as we have never been before needed a travel agent we could trust. In our opinion Debbie goes that extra mile to ensure you have trouble free holiday from the minute you book until you arrive home, the little extras like pre booking your plane seats for you, contacting hotel with your special requests etc. We would not hesitate to recommend her to family and friends.

Thanks for the welcome home - much appreciated! Actually we were plunged directly into the middle of our kitchen re-furb, which had been started whilst we were away. Anyway, we had a great time with wonderful flights both ways, and a great place and company whilst we were there. I must say most people were jealous of our flights! They paid more than us and didn't get on-board food. After what we told them, I think they'll now use Travel Counsellors for their arrangements in future! Most of them had heard of you through Richmond, of course, but thought they could get a better deal on their own via the internet. Now they know better.
Thanks once again for your good work, speedy responses, wonderful attitude, and overall - a great result,
