It’s my first time being in London and as a true Potterhead I wanted to haves our sort of starting point what to do or see in the city. Walking tours are by far my favourite and the tour guide exceeded my expectations. We decided to book the walking tour with the boat option and it connected the two parts of the tour nicely. Our guide Tom was really charming and his personality made the tour a unique experience, he had lots of Potter Trivia with him and created a special atmosphere. My friend who accompanied me is not a huge potterhead but enjoyed the tour as well, since you get an insight to nice spots in the city. A huge recommendation from our side!

We booked a private tour with Emily and it was well worth it. Emily was brilliant - her knowledge was amazing. And I sincerely appreciated her candor about some of less flattering aspects of how items ended up in the museum and British history overall. It was like having access to a history professor for 2.5 hours. Highly recommend!

Top guide, we had a great time with the family in London, the visit exceeded our expectations, lots of information was given, we learned a lot. replaying the scenes of the different Harry potter films was a magical and pleasant moment. I highly recommend.

John was an amazing tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable and interesting. This is a wonderful tour for everyone!

This tour was excellent. We loved all the small villages.
