Paul was a fabulous guide. Lots of fun and knowledge. Great with our 6 year old granddaughter. We LOVED the quiz. The locations and information on London was so informative. The bus stop is a few minutes walk from Embankment station. We loved this small touches like scarfs, hats and wands! Highly recommended! Thankyou 🙏

i booked this tour for myself and a family member. We had the tour on 26/09/2025 and it was amazing. Along with a harry potter themed quiz and visiting the filming locations we also got to see some key london sights seeing locations. The commentator was great and extremely knowledgeable and the other two attendants were lovely and hospitable. would recommend !
A fabulous 2 hours and great value for the whole family.

Will was a tremendous, energetic and knowledgeable guy, 2 hours well spent!! Expertly driven by Wayne. The tour was a lot more informative than expected and is also a tour of London, which sounds obvious, but great sights to see. Highly recommend and well done chaps. Great for the kids with a couple of digital quizzes thrown in along the way too.
Interesting and fun tour

We absolutely loved this! Our guide Will and driver Rob was brilliant, my daughter loved that Will was dressed up and that the Sorting Hat decided what house you were in and got to chose a scarf/tie to wear, very informative, and engaged with my very excited daughter, she also really enjoyed doing the quiz. Thank you for a lovely experience.
