Fantastic highly recommend it even if your not a Harry Potter fan. - Not a big Harry Potter fan but took my nephew to London and found this gem of a tour, well worth the money for a 2 hour tour. Our guide Ryan was amazing not only did we have a fun Harry Potter guide of the films we also got he’s knowledge of London and other filming areas, Scotland Yard stables, a hotel where all the stars stay! And even the most narrow alleyway in London Check it out! 👍

Mischief Managed!! Amazing tour. - Had the best time on the tour! Ryan is incredibly charismatic and knowledgeable, also just a lot of fun. As a Potterhead who thought she knew everything I even learned a few things. Highly recommend to anyone who’s into the books and especially the movies and wants to see London in a new light.

A Spellbinding Experience with Magical Movies of London Harry Potter Tour - A friend and had the pleasure of joining the Magical Movies of London Harry Potter Tour with Where Now Tours, and it was an enchanting experience that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we set off, our guide Ryan’s passion for both Harry Potter and London’s rich history was evident. His extensive knowledge of the Potterverse, combined with his satisfying British wit, made the tour both informative and thoroughly entertaining. As we ambled through the cobbled streets of London, we visited several filming locations such as the Millennium Bridge, the Ministry of Magic’s entrance near Scotland Yard and the Leaky Cauldron entrance in Borough Market. Ryan’s storytelling brought these places to life, making it easy to imagine the magic of the Harry Potter world unfolding around us. Ryan pointed out the exact spots where memorable scenes were shot and shared behind-the-scenes stories that added an extra layer of magic to the experience. Armed with a multitude of weird and wonderful Harry Potter facts and behind-the-scenes trivia, he kept us all engaged and amused throughout the tour. His quips and anecdotes were as satisfying as a butterbeer on a cold day. In addition to Harry Potter locations, Ryan also shared fascinating facts about other famous films shot in London. He highlighted iconic locations from various movies, adding a delightful cinematic dimension to the tour. Plus, Ryan would play footage from the films at key locations, making it even easier to visualise the scenes and adding an immersive touch to the experience. The tour was well-paced, allowing plenty of time for photo opportunities and questions. Ryan’s engaging manner and deep knowledge ensured that both die-hard Potterheads and casual fans enjoyed the tour equally. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the Harry Potter series or just looking to explore London’s cinematic history, the Magical Movies of London Harry Potter Tour is a must-do. It offers a unique perspective of the city that you won’t find anywhere else. Highly recommended for all ages – this tour of our fascinating Muggle world is truly magical!

Amazingly fun and informative tour. - My family and I had a brilliant time on this Harry Potter tour putting the film into context. It was really interesting to see where scenes had been filmed and we were able to be reminded of these by our guide’s use of a digital device to see the scenes which really enhanced the experience. Alongside the film tour, we also benefited from amazing local knowledge from our Guide, Ryan, and found out about parts of London and it’s history. Places we would never have found on our own! Thank you for a really informative and fun walk. We would highly recommend it.

Harry Potter Tour of London - Having been to the Harry Potter studios, I decided to go on the Harry Potter tour in London. So glad I did this tour, really interesting seeing where the exterior filming was done, without the tour would never had known these places were used in the film. What I wasn’t expecting was the tour guide also told us about some of Londons history and took us to some interesting places, which we would have never found on our own. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable, with a good sense of humour and was happy to answer all our questions.

Magical day out - The Harry Potter tour with Ryan was fantastic. Really enjoyed seeing where stuff was filmed and it was really cool to see the scenes on a tablet he provided so i could see it in context to the film and real life! Another great highlight was going to some hidden parts of London, having visited before!! Ryan is very charismatic and the tour very entertaining, I highly recommend to people who have a spare day in London! You won’t be disappointed!
