London's grand central square, with Nelson's Column and the fountains, plus its own scattering of film and location history worth pointing out along the way. Trafalgar Square features in the Harry Potter films several times, as well as being the site of the film premiere for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2!
We will take a stroll along Charing Cross Road, which is where Diagon Alley is located in the world of Harry Potter. We will stop at a few side streets that inspired J K Rowling's writing.
Where the film premieres brought out the crowds and the cast, year after year. Still one of London's liveliest squares, especially at night.

Our tour guide was Bobby! He is brilliant, very passionate and an excellent tour guide, it was so much fun, I learn a lot, it was never boring and so funny. I laughed a lot with his jokes! it was a magical and memorable experience with lots of Easter eggs not only about Harry Potter but London too.
Thank - you for a lovely LGBTQ tour!! I would like to recommend Mark Cox from the LGBTQ tour,, besides the Sherlock holmes tour it's probably been the best tour I've been on I could of done the tour... Date of experience: October 2026 Id also like to thank Becky for a really magical tour on The Harry potter tour,, taking us all down the darl little alleys that were an idea for the harry potter films,, the lovely family's I met on the tour,, getting us to use our wands for the family photo& taking us to Greengotts Harry potter bank!!
We took the Harry Potter tour with Bobby and are totally thrilled! We learned a lot about HP but also about London. Bobby entertained us super well and did a really great job.
Absolutely fantastic tour! Bobby was professional, funny, friendly, and engaging from start to finish. He kept the tour moving at a great pace, shared tons of interesting Harry Potter and London facts, and clearly knew his stuff. He was always happy to answer questions not only about Harry Potter, but London in general, and made everyone feel welcome. Highly recommended — a great guide who made the experience even more magical!
Very great tour, we learned a lot of stuff. And I was very glad Hufflepuff won ! 🙃 Thank you Becky !
Awesome tour and a great guide.
Bobby was brilliant! Super friendly and extremely artistic! The tour itself was interesting and I’m honestly sad that it ended. Also it didn’t even feel like a tour but like a walk with a friend who was part of the movie or something. Truly truly great!
The tour was very fun and informative, George was friendly and very helpful, he taught us lots of new things. Every location was unexpected and interesting to learn about. Would definitely recommend to people visiting London interested in Harry potter. 😁
Richard was an excellent tour guide! I loved how he met us with a red umbrella and in front of the Cursed Child show. He was fun and light hearted with a ton of knowledge. He made it so fun and the experience was just what we were looking for.
George was top notch. Quirky places, amusing anecdotes, an apparently encyclopedic familiarity with all things Potter. What’s not to like?
