Enjoy a 90-minute walking tour through the magical world of Harry Potter, right here in Oxford. Led by a University of Oxford alumnus or current student, this tour is perfect for fans who want to follow in the footsteps of their favourite characters.

You’ll visit the bookshop where J.K. Rowling first presented her books, see where Emma Watson not only acted but also studied, and pass by familiar faces like Nearly Headless Nick. You'll recognise the arches and gothic pinnacles seen in the films — some around the famous Divinity School, others hidden in plain sight throughout the city.

The highlight of the tour is a visit to New College, one of Oxford’s most beautiful colleges, where you’ll find the very tree under which Draco Malfoy was turned into a ferret. From quiet cloisters to scenes straight out of the wizarding world, this is a must for anyone who’s ever dreamed of Hogwarts.

    While this is billed as a Harry Potter tour, there is really very little connection with Harry Potter. It’s a great Oxford tour but you may be disappointed if your primary motivation is to see sites with a Harry Potter connection. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and very nice.

    We had a wonderful tour of Oxford schools with a real physics PhD student, Kris. He was very knowledgeable and fun and took us to great historical spots. We even got a lovely impromptu organ recital at one of the chapels. Highly recommend!
