Leo was a wonderful walking tour guide and he made it so interesting!! Great for folks of all ages and a great way to see the city!
A magical and unforgettable experience! Exploring the city’s streets and discovering the places that inspired the world of Harry Potter was fascinating, especially with our guide sharing fun facts, stories, and hidden connections to the books and films. Our guide was knowledgeable and able to bring the Harry Potter magic to life while also sharing interesting details about Edinburgh’s history and landmarks. The weather was quite cold during the tour, but it did not take away from our excitement or interest. This tour is a must for Harry Potter fans and anyone who wants to see Edinburgh from a unique perspective.
Robbie was our tour guide and he was very good. He was very personable and extremely knowledgeable about all things Harry Potter. I would recommend taking this tour, it is full of information.
