Me and my friends had such a fun time on the Harry Potter pub tour with Carlos. I didn’t realise how much more Harry Potter lore there was to discover!! The whole time was a blast and I can’t wait for an opportunity to show off all the niche knowledge and deep hits of the franchise that I now know!

Had an amazing Harry Potter tour with Carlos, such a brilliant guide! Discovered hidden gems in Soho and some charming pubs which I’ll definitely be going back to. Carlos also shared some fascinating stories about HP, the actors and the books/films. Not your typical London tour, which made it even better! 🧙‍♂️✨

If you want your typical Harry Potter tour, this is not for you! Carlos is an excellent storyteller, who brings you with him on a journey from the moment JK put pen to paper, to the filming of the movie while conspiring with Alan Rickhman over his fondness for his character Snape. This tour takes you down hidden alleys and secret passageways, where you learn not just about the story behind the story of Harry Potter, but a lot about West End pub culture, as rhe actors experienced it, as well.
