Whether you’re still waiting for your Hogwarts letter or you’ve long since mastered wand-waving, grab your curiosity and a pinch of pixie dust for a spellbinding Harry Potter tour through London. Witches, wizards, Squibs, and Muggles alike are welcome as we slip through hidden alleys and cobbled streets where the wizarding world quietly shimmers.
We’ll trace the chaotic route of the Knight Bus, step inside the telephone box to the Ministry of Magic, and cross the bridge once destroyed by Voldemort’s Death Eaters. Your Hogwarts graduate guide will duel you with trivia, share filming secrets, and reveal the magic behind every corner.
In this half-day adventure, explore the inspirations behind the Leaky Cauldron, wander Diagon Alley, hunt for Platform 9¾, glimpse Gringotts, Privet Drive, and more magical spots. Wands at the ready. Mischief managed.
