Tessa gave us a fast paced informative tour of Harry Potter/JK Rowling spots in Edinburgh. She somehow managed to contain all of her group through the thousands of Fringe visitors. She was fun and we enjoyed the tour. Definitely worth doing this tour.

We loved the tour. Got a good understanding of how Harry Potter was inspired in this lovely city and we also got some good history lessons on Edinburgh itself. Our tour guide Ben did a great job. My only recommendation is that the city is loud and it was hard to hear Ben at times.

Very informative. Loved seeing all the influences from Edinburgh on the Harry Potter stories and learning so much about the author. Bonus that I didn't anticipate was seeing a good chunk of Edinburgh itself. Loved it! Touring the city with a theme. Our tour guide was energetic, knowledgeable, and engaging! FUN!
