OUR REVIEWS
“I've been in the same book club for over 20 years, and I keep telling my friends we need to do this as a group. The trip to New York was my first experience with Novel Travels, and it was truly more than I could have imagined. Everything Corinne put together was thoughtful, special, and unlike anything I'd ever done. The cherry on top was having Fiona join us. She was so down-to-earth and felt like one of the group. For someone who doesn't get to travel often, this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I can't thank Corinne enough for the hospitality and the memories.”

“It was amazing from the very beginning! We loved everything second. The guides/drivers were all fabulous! They were punctual, friendly, and so well prepared to make sure we saw everything Harry Potter! We know it’s not ordinary to do a Harry Potter-themed trip for a 25-year-old and her mom! But this was perfectly geared toward an adult journey! We can’t thank you enough!!”

"I came alone and didn't know a soul, which gave me a moment's pause — but the group came together beautifully. People were warm, generous, and genuinely connected. Fiona spent so much time with us, and the conversation went far beyond her books. We talked about what everyone was reading, our book clubs, all of it. And Kevin, our guide, was superb. He wove together history, architecture, and the world of Fiona's books in a way that made everything come alive. A trip I will always remember and highly recommend.”

"My experience with the Novel Travels Fiona Davis literary tour exceeded my expectations in every way. The trip was a wonderful immersion into New York City from a historical perspective, and every detail was thoughtfully curated. We were introduced to compelling, little-known historical perspectives that helped us feel part of the stories within Fiona's books. One of the greatest gifts of the experience was meeting such wonderful women from across the country and sharing the journey together. And a true highlight was our daily time with Fiona Davis herself — engaging, endearing, and incredibly generous with her insights. She made us feel deeply connected not only to New York City but to her work and the stories behind it. I left with such an appreciation for the intentionality behind every aspect of the trip — and already wanting to come back for more."

"I feel fortunate to have participated in a fantastic weekend in New York City, organized by Corinne Levine of Novel Travels. Our small group of avid readers explored the iconic landmarks and buildings that inspired Fiona Davis' novels, guided expertly through the city by Kevin, a native New Yorker with a gift for bringing small details and architecture to life. Highlights included sharing meals with Fiona Davis each evening at lovely restaurants, attending a Broadway show, and spending time with like-minded women who love books the way I do. It was exactly the kind of trip I didn't know I needed. I'd highly recommend reaching out to Corinne to join the next Fiona Davis tour."

"I've now attended the Novel Travels Fiona Davis tour twice, and I'm already thinking about going back. The first time, I brought my daughter, and we still talk about the people we met and the fun we had. What makes this experience so special is that it doesn't just connect you to the story and the history of the city. It connects you to other readers. The conversation is non-stop and completely passionate. Meeting Fiona is a wonderful bonus, and every time I go, I discover something new."

"Our trip to New York City combined my two favorite things: reading and history. Corrine at Novel Travels created a once‑in‑a‑lifetime opportunity to step inside the world of Fiona Davis’ novels. We learned about each historic New York landmark through the eyes of Ms. Davis’ heroines, making the city feel alive with story and meaning."
