Overview

Discover the London that inspired the wizarding world of Harry Potter with this guided walking tour. See the iconic backdrops of your favourite scenes from the magical film series, and enjoy a sightseeing adventure of the world-famous capital.

Start your two-hour walking tour at the famous Trafalgar Square. Hear stories and facts about the franchise from your guide, as you pass by filming locations such as Great Scotland Yard and Goodwin's Court – which inspired both Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley. Don't forget to take a snap of 10 Downing Street, the office of the muggle Prime Minister.

Follow in the footsteps of the wizarding trio throughout London, and you might even win 10 points for your house if you answer your guide's questions correctly. Enjoy the magical tour, and be sure to ask your guide for any local recommendations for a bite to eat (or a butterbeer).

Afterwards, continue your exploration of London with a self-guided audio tour, available to download on a mobile app.
