Amazing tour with photos and videos of HP scenes from movies! Very knowledgeable and friendly. Helped us with our sons stroller and also waited for us when we were running a couple of mins late! Name was Robin!
A most enjoyable different take on the Harry Potter experience, clear that a lot of time and effort put into the experience, and will now be re watching the movies looking out for all the locations we visited. Will definitely recommend 👍
Our tour guide was great and spent time and attention to detail. He showed us clips from the movie along the way! Highly recommended!
Most comprehensive Harry Potter tour ! The others are way too short and too many people. Would do again
Our guide, Rueben, personable courteous, energetic, entertaining and very organized. He was a wealth of information and kept our group moving through the city. I was on a cane for the tour and never had difficulty keeping up. Thanks Rueben for a fabulous tour!
We had a great time on the tour - the guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable of both Harry Potter and London, and the tour itself was very well put together and easy to follow! Would recommend :)
I did the tour with two girls aged 9 and 12, and it was absolutely fantastic! We enjoyed every single moment of the experience. Ruben made us feel so engaged throughout the tour, sharing all the little secrets behind the Harry Potter filming locations. I 200% recommend this tour to any Harry Potter fan!
This tour was wonderful! Our guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and helpful even beyond the tour with recommendations and transportation suggestions. This is a brilliant choice if you’re looking for the authentic filming locations or inspiration instead of a studio tour. It’s a great way to see different parts of the city, which was perfect for my 12 year old daughter and I in London for 24 hours. It is a 3-hour walking tour so you will be walking for 3-hours (with a couple of rides on the tube). It’s stated clearly and it was an excellent choice for me, but my jet lagged preteen is not writing this review (lol).
My teenage daughter and I really enjoyed the walking tour. Our guide, Ruben, was amazing and we got to really get to know London in such a fun way. Thank you!
Ruben our amazing guide was very informative about specific spots used in all Harry Potter films. His passion for these movies was clearly shown through his dynamic organization and photo/film props to help us really visualize how the movies played out. Great tour, would do it again in a heartbeat!
