What To Expect
King's Cross Station
After meeting your guide and fellow Potter fans, head inside this beautiful old station - home of Platform 9 ¾ where the journey to Hogwarts begins! Want to get your photo with the Platform 9 ¾ trolley? Queues can be big so we recommend arriving 45mins before the tour starts - we won't have time during the tour itself.
Cecil Court
Walk down this beautiful old London street, full of colourful independent shops with overhanging signs - just like a famous magical shopping street in Harry Potter. Great for Photos!

5.00Naomi gave us the greatest Harry Potter tour we could have imagined! Loved how she customized the tour to our preferences. And she shared so much cool info and sites about Harry Potter. Loved all the London sites we saw of course too. Thank you, Naomi!

Disappointed Kids

3.00Our kids knew more about Harry Potter than our tour guide. Also, we had to spend 60 pounds for trains. Would have been nice to know in advance or had it included in the price. Tour guide barely spoke about HP in between stops. Also, to top it off he concluded our tour at the Bourough Markets 5 min after arriving. Didn't tell or show us anything about the market or Tower Bridge. Avoid!
Just like family!

5.00Robert was so good at this tour. He really made us feel like he was another family member who was walking us around but a family member with lots of knowledge about Harry Potter and London as well!
Extraordinary Experience, good tour guide

5.00Outstanding Performance, the tour guide was wonderful. He showed us almost every single thing Harry Potter related around London, as well as other interesting places. The idea of Harry Potter excites both me and my kid, and having this tour was a very wonderful experience. We hope to come to this experience again, especially with the same tour guide

5.00Our tour guide, Lupe, was fantastic. She had so much knowledge about HP and other movies that were filmed in London. She was super friendly and had so many “fun facts” throughout the walk. Would highly recommend this tour!

5.00Had a fabulous time! Our guide Mary was an absolute joy. This was an incredible experience for any Harry Potter fan, and for those who are maybe less so but tagging along as you see all the sights of London. Highly recommend Mary, she was fun, bubbly and gave us a great day.
