From the guide

Join your own fun Potterhead guide to see real movie set locations and inspirational sights of the world's most famous Wizard (you know who he is!)

This Private tour is ideal for families and Potter-loving groups of all ages!

You will see over 10 actual filming locations and several famous places that inspired JK Rowling, learning fun facts and wizarding secrets along the way...

The tour starts at the iconic King Cross Train station : home to Platform 9 ¾

We then head to Leicester Square and Westminster to see movie sights & visit a shop that made all of the paper props for the films!

Next, we'll jump on the tube and head to London Bridge where we see more film locations, including the Millennium (aka Wobbly) Bridge and the Leaky Cauldron. In addition to the film locations we will see sights and buildings that inspired JK Roling when she was writing each of the books.

This is a great London experience for families & die hard fans of Harry Potter!
