Itinerary

Your tour begins at your central London hotel

A driver collects you right from your hotel, then welcomes you aboard a comfortable executive vehicle. Settle in for the scenic 60-minute ride north to the film studios in Leavesden.

Stroll the cobblestones of Diagon Alley

Step off the shuttle as your tickets are handed over, then enter the wizarding world. Wander the famous cobbles of Diagon Alley, passing Ollivander's, Flourish and Blotts, and the bright Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes.

Stand beneath the lanterns of the Great Hall

Pass into the Great Hall, the first set built for the films, where long banquet tables stretch toward the staff dais. Flagstone floors, tall windows, and house banners surround you just as they appear on screen.

Board the Hogwarts Express at Platform 9¾

Next, reach the original Hogwarts Express resting beside a re-created Platform 9 3/4. Walk through a filming carriage, then push a luggage trolley toward the brick wall for a photo every fan dreams about.

Marvel at the marble halls of Gringotts Bank

Enter Gringotts Wizarding Bank, lined with towering marble pillars and crystal chandeliers. Step inside the Lestrange vault, surrounded by piled Galleons and treasures, including the gleaming Sword of Gryffindor.

Get lost in the Forbidden Forest

Venture into the dim Forbidden Forest, where gnarled trees rise overhead and Buckbeak the hippogriff waits in shadow. Look for giant spiders among the roots as the misty woodland path winds quietly around you.

Watch the secrets of special effects unfold

Finish at the Backlot, home to the Secrets of Special Effects experience. Live demonstrations reveal how filmmakers crafted the fantastical creatures and thrilling action seen across the Harry Potter film series.

Your tour ends at your central London hotel

After four hours among the sets, reboard your vehicle for the drive south, arriving back in central London around 3 to 3:30pm. Your driver returns you to your Zone 1 hotel with a head full of wizarding memories.
