Robbie’s Harry Potter tour was fun, engaging, and a 10/10 experience

Robbie was our wonderful tour guide. Very charismatic and full of knowledge. He made the tour incredibly fun for everyone in the group. Highly highly recommended.

Exploring places with Marwin Harry Potter is a must for fans!

Marwin was a very entertaining and extremely empathetic tour guide towards the children in the group. We were divided into the four houses and competed for the house cup. We would recommend the tour at any time because you also see parts of London that you would not have seen otherwise, but are truly charming. A tour with Marwin through London is definitely a valuable experience!

Great Harry Potter Tour with Kieran

We had a terrific tour with Kieran, who has the advantage of looking more than a wee bit like Daniel Radcliff! He was knowledgeable, engaging and we learned a lot about how JK Rowling wrote the Harry Potter series and gained inspiration for many of the names and places in the books.

Perfect experience

Great tour with Marvin. He shared his passion with the movies and also provided tons of insides beyond the tour content. Thank you. Our kids enjoyed it as much as we did.
