An unmissable tour for families & all die hard fans of Harry Potter!

Join your fun Potterhead guide and small group of fellow fans to discover actual movie set locations of the world's most famous Wizard (you know who he is!)

You'll also visit several locations that inspired JK Rowling's stories - it's the best way for Potter fans to explore London!

The tour starts at King Cross Train station : Platform 9 3/4!!

We'll walk down magical narrow streets on our way to the Leicester Square area for top film locations & visiting 2 famous shops - the first made all of the paper props for the films and the second a very nice treat for the kids (We keep this one a secret!)

We'll then travel to London Bridge where we see more film locations, including the Wobbly Bridge & Leaky Cauldron.

Along the way, learn fun wizarding facts and stories, and see sights & buildings that inspired JK Rowling.
