Hogwarts Tour Includes New college+ Christchurch +Divinity school

Pre paid entry self guided audio guide basis is arranged for you as Christ church prohibits guiding inside. So the entry recommended one hour duration is after the guide checks you in and leaves. Thus your tour averages 3 hours guided plus 1 hour self guided. Entry ticket worth up to £24 per person included. On any dates, when Christ church hall is closed, we will either remove the tour from sale or warn you, if the hall is viewing from door only- see exclusions section for such exceptional dates. Default itinerary is tour ends with Christ church entry at 2.45pm. If there are ever partial closures, we may change entry slot but we we will advise you before the tour and offer option to cancel or to get part refund, if you cannot adapt to any dates with exceptional partial closures. Audio guides are available in multiple languages too.

Entry is with the guide and the entry fee worth £12 per person is paid by the guide for you. See where they filmed scenes from the Goblet of fire such as Malfoy being transfigured into a ferret in the medieval quadrangle. New college is not in fact ''new''- it dates back to 1379 and it's said to be haunted too. As and when open, we see inside the medieval dining hall and the chapel. We see the gardens and main quadrangle and the medieval Oxford city walls- which actually appears as a backdrop photo morphed into an image in the films. We typically schedule to visit New college at 10.30am as the dining hall can close as early as 11.15 to 14.30, so if you specifically ask to book the tour at a different start time, please be aware you may miss seeing the Great Hall. Warner Bros asked to film the halls of New, Christ church and of Keble and all three colleges turned them down to film in their halls, so the Great Hall was built at Warner Bros studio but looks like an Oxford hall!

NOTICE: Divinity school closes often, so see Exclusions for dates closed. As & when, the Divinity school at the Bodleian library is open, the tour includes £3 entry fee to see inside. Note that guiding is no longer permitted inside but we tell you all about the venue outside and can accompany you inside to help you take photos, wearing our dress up gowns, hats, wands etc. Divinity school is where they filmed dance scenes yule ball & infirmary scenes of Hogwarts. Divinity school is where the theology students did their oral exams in Latin, dating back to the 15th century. Note the above the Divinity school at the Bodleian is Duke Humfreys library, where they also filmed library scenes. However, Duke Humfreys is never open to children aged under 11, nor to private guides. If you also wish to visit Duke Humfreys library, make sure to go onto Bodleian library website and book a Bodleian library staff guided tour. Bodleian library tours start from £12 and sell out 2 weeks ahead too!

Which colleges or churches we may visit inside of can change lots from one day to the next and based on what time you may book the tour but we plan to visit inside at least two local churches and one college or more which have the most relevance to introducing the theme of this tour.

We introduce this in passing

We walk past and introduce this pub as the alleywall there is said to have inspired JK Rowling for Diagon alleyway and the pub serves Hogsmeade and is where the adult actors used to drink and relax after filming. Robbie Coltrane who played Hagrid, famously used to bang his head on the ceiling, as the front end of the bar is not quite 1.8m high!
