Best for die-hard Potter fans! - We visited from Australia with a large group of teen cousins and this tour was the highlight of our trip to London. Our guide, James, was down-to-earth and approachable for all kinds of random questions. He was organised, kept the pace how we liked it, and had excellent knowledge of background stories from the making of all 8 Harry Potter films to funny stories about London in general. Excited to see the inspiration behind Diagon Alley, learn about some of the filming issues, do a "Ron Weasley" near the Ministry of Magic, and visit some of the designers. Loved it! Can't recommend this tour highly enough.

Highlight of our trip! - James was such a friendly tour guide he was able to answer all our quirky questions and bring the magic of London to life by showing us the exact scenes where specific parts of the city were filmed or based off. So many fascinating stories about the making of the Harry Potter films were shared in a casual manner so we really felt like James was a good friend and fellow Harry Potter fan. He did not rush us at all and we were able to take plenty of photos and have various discussions. He gave us further tips for places to visit in London that we would have otherwise missed. Thank you so much!!

Rushed and overpriced - Highly overpriced and far from what I expected. I found the same Airbnb tour for a portion of the price I paid here. Our guide was friendly but clearly not an avid fan and the whole thing seemed rushed. It was over and done within just 2 hours, not 6 as stated. Not worth the money. Google the locations and do the walk by yourself.

A SAD EXPERIENCE - Good morning
We were very disappointed because we had booked a group tour for Harry Potter in Azkaban In London and we were 30 minutes early at the meeting point, but no guide was present. We were also with another family and waited. We contacted Viator, who offered us a refund in writing via WhatsApp, which we accepted. However, a month later, they still haven't issued any refunds. It's a shame to be treated this way by a company that should be providing the right information,
Well, in short, the iron pot against the earthen pot because today with Brexit we don't want to fight. Good advice to pay on site because when things go wrong you will never be reimbursed by viatour.
Hello,
We were very disappointed because we had booked a group tour for Harry Potter at Azkaban in London, and we arrived 30 minutes early at the meeting point, but no guide was present. We were also with another family and waited. We contacted Viator, who offered us a refund in writing via WhatsApp, which we accepted. However, one month later, they still haven't issued any refund. It's unfortunate to be treated this way by a company that should provide accurate information.
In short, it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black because today, with Brexit, we don't want to fight. A piece of advice: pay on
the spot, as when things go wrong, you will never be refunded by Viator.
