5.00My guide Molly was amazing. Talking with her was like sharing a passion with an old friend. You can see her love for the city and the world of Harry Potter. I highly recommend this tour if you happen to visit York and love Harry Potter. Great job, Molly! 🐍

5.00Molly was a fantastic tour guide. She was very informative and knowledgeable. We had no problem identifying the meeting point and learnt lots about not only Harry Potter and the influence the York had upon the stories and dramatisation but also about the city itself. We would highly recommend the tour.
Great tour with a great tour guide!
