Not a Harry Potter locations tour

1.00Well I was excited as the name suggested I was made to believe that we would get to see certain Harry Potter locations but it’s misleading. It’s actually a walking tour around certain sites in York with Harry Potter quiz in between. Although the guide was knowledgable, I was put off as the walking tour had no locations of Harry Potter shoots. If I knew this earlier I would not have chosen this. The meeting point was changed and directions were not clear but the tour waited till we arrived (10 mins late)
Definitely do NOT recommend them.

1.00Couldn’t find the meeting place as there was a ton of construction and their directions aren’t clear. Messaged them at the time of the beginning of the tour telling them I couldn’t find them. They never responded. Called Viator who put me through to them. Asked for a refund and they said no, it was my fault I couldn’t find them. Definitely do NOT recommend them.
Absolutely loved it...

4.00Found it was more information giving than interactive. I had expected their to be more quizzes/ games and actual Harry Potter film sets

5.00Aliyah was great she was super friendly and nice. She was also a huge Harry Potter fan which I can definitely appreciate. I will say that there are no actual filiming locations of HP in York so don’t expect that but there’s tons of stuff that the stories are based on. I will also say that I enjoyed the quizzes a ton, but for those who aren’t super knowledgeable on Harry Potter it may be difficult for you to understand or enjoy. For me though I had a wonderful time!
