very nice tour guide, told a lot, unfortunately the locations were relatively boring, but we saw parts of the city and locations that we would never have seen on our own

We were a group of three and it was by far one of the best experiences we have had while we were on our London vacation. Our guide was Ben, who was beyond lovely and did an INCREDIBLE job at showing us around the city and of course, the Harry Potter film locations. Truly the best guide, also according to my friends and open for all sorts of questions and a nice guy to have a conversation with, which made everything more comfortable! :) We were shown around all sorts of places like the original station for 9¾, Diagon Alley, Knockturn Alley, Gringots and so on while also having a good look on the sights around. Definitely a fun experience if you want to give a Harry Potter obsessed Fan who has never been to London before a surprise (Like myself!) Even though the Tour was 3 hours (or almost 3 hours) long, it didnt feel like it and has gone by too fast for me. I would definitely book the tour again (if its Ben of course 😁) when i come back to London.
Unveiling the inspirations behind J. K. Rowling’s world
Explore the sites featured in the immensely popular Harry Potter movies, along with the places that inspired JK Rowling. Like all magical journeys, this one also starts at the King’s Cross Station and Platform 9¾, where you'll get time to click some photos of yourself before you enter the Wizarding World. Next up, visit the Borough Market and the Great Scotland Yard road and try to spot the entrances to the Leaky Cauldron and the Ministry of Magic.
Iconic landmarks with a healthy dose of movie trivia
The tour is not only about film locations. You’ll get to see landmarks like Big Ben and the Westminster area which is home to London icons like Trafalgar Square. Potterheads will remember that this is the square to which the Golden Trio escapes in the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Watch out for the Millennium (aka Wobbly) Bridge that was blown up by the Death Eaters in the Half-Blood Prince, as well as the eerie Clink Prison that is said to have inspired Azkaban. Before the tour ends, be sure to ask your guide about the best places to shop for wizarding world treats like chocolate frogs and butterbeer.
