Harry Potter Walking Tour of London

Welcome to London! A world-class city full of history and significant landmarks, the U.K. capital also boasts magical connections to the classic film and book franchise Harry Potter.

What to Expect

Meet us at the 4th Plinth in Trafalgar Square, where we'll set off on an expertly guided Harry Potter walking tour through the heart of London. We'll enjoy a route of iconic sites that brought the monumental film franchise to life. Grab your broomsticks, and let's go!

Kicking thinking off with a stroll to 10 Downing Street, we'll walk over to the Great Scotland Yard. Does this site ring any bells? 10 points to your house if you can guess! Here, an innocent Harry enters the Ministry of Magic through a mysterious telephone box for an underaged wizardry trial in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

As we continue, we'll pass by the iconic Trafalgar Square again. The renowned square itself is famous for serving as the backdrop for film premieres as well as the scenes of Death Eaters descending onto the city in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

In Trafalgar Square, we'll also check out the House of Spells and Palace Theater, where we'll see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the next chapter in the story, which takes place 19 years after the ending of Deathly Hallows, featured on the theater marquee.

From here, our magical journey takes us to the Harry Potter Photographic Exhibition, a treasure trove of behind-the-scenes photos that narrate the film series being shot over the years. Then, we'll set our sights on the iconic WC2E 7BN block of London for more enchantment.

Following this visit, we'll wrap up our adventure as we arrive at the National Gallery, where a portrait of none other than Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe graces the walls.

Consider this your official Hogwarts letter; no more waiting for that owl! Join our spellbinding walking tour in London, where the magic of Harry Potter comes to life!
