This is recommended for those who want to do a Harry Potter pilgrimage in one day.
A guide named Simon showed me around. He himself seemed to have watched the Harry Potter series many times, and during the tour, he explained things while showing videos of movie scenes, there were quizzes about Harry Potter, and he told us behind-the-scenes stories of the filming. (He showed us the videos on his smartphone, but I thought it would have been better with a tablet because it's bigger and easier to see.)
All the guides were in English.
The itinerary was to depart from the area around London's Victoria Station, take about two hours to reach the village of Lacock, then go through the Cotswolds region for about an hour to Gloucester Cathedral, and finally return to London in about three hours.
Since it's a place that is difficult to get to by transferring between trains and buses, I thought it would be highly recommended for those who want to quickly tour the Harry Potter filming locations in one day.
It was disappointing that the reception didn't start on time for the 8 AM meeting, so we had to wait outside, and the driving was very rough, which made me carsick.

Visiting Harry Potter filming locations was one of the biggest dreams of my life. This was so emotional for me… I liked the most that our guide, Simon, is a big fan of the books himself. The trivia was so much fun. I wish I could spend more time in Lacock village to wandering around on my own but for my mom it was good amount of walking. Thank you Evans tours and Simon, my 11 year old self was chuffed to bits! 🌷

The most best tour I have ever been on
I would definitely do this again. Not only did Simon show us the filming locations of Harry Potter, but he made it very fun by adding trivia questions about Harry Potter but he also talked about other parts of History during the tour.

It was a fun bus tour.
The tour was full of highlights, from La Recon to the Gloster Cathedral.
Although I didn't understand much English and was anxious, I was able to enjoy it without any problems because Simon, the guide, explained things while showing photos and videos.
Since it's a place that is hard for individuals to go to, it is also recommended for those who are not good at English.

Ray-Croc to Gloster
It was a journey around Rayleigh and Gloucester.
Both were wonderful experiences. Since there was also a Harry Potter tour, the guide Simon explained the movie scenes and the locations they were in with videos and photos. If you've seen the movie, you might understand it quickly.

Amazing Harry Potter Tour
Our guide, Simon, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to understand. He explained everything clearly, which made the tour even more enjoyable. It would have been difficult to visit these places on my own from London, so I’m very glad I joined the tour. I was also very moved to see the places and scenery that I had seen in the Harry Potter films. It was a wonderful and memorable experience.
