Overview

Come follow in the footsteps of the world’s most famous wizard, and enjoy a refreshing bottle of non-alcoholic Butterbeer, a drink made famous by the movie. It consists of cream soda and butter syrup, and you won't find anything else like it in London except on our tour! See the buildings that contain the Ministry of Magic, walk through the Underground barriers Harry and Arthur Weasley travelled through on their visit to London, stand on the bridge blown up by Death Eaters, and walk through the real Diagon Alley! The tour will be filled with fun facts and film references, and take you to all the sites that inspired the iconic book series as well as including all the site used for filming in our city. So whether you’re a Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, grab your wands and come along on a magical walk through the London of Harry Potter!

Meeting Point

Meet your guide outside Costa Coffee on Southwark Street, just outside London Bridge Underground Station. If coming via the tube, take the EXIT FOR BOROUGH MARKET.

End Point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

What To Expect

1. Borough Market Borough Market was transformed into the setting for the Leaky Cauldron's entrance. The market's bustling atmosphere and historic architecture added an authentic touch to the magical world of Harry Potter and the Knight Bus scene that was filmed here.

2. The Clink Prison Museum Considered an inspiration for Azkaban Prison, The Clink adds to the historical ambiance of the area, which was utilised as a filming location for scenes in Harry Potter.

3. Shakespeare's Globe Theatre Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is an exact replica of the 16th century theatre that once stood here. This version was built by actor Sam Wanamaker, who is actually the father of Zoe Wanamaker who played Madame Hooch. In addition, David Tenant (Barty Crouch Jr) was married here.

4. Millennium Bridge This iconic London landmark, built in the year 2000 (hence the name) was blown up by the Death Eaters in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film!

5. St. Paul's Cathedral This is where Newt Scamander met Dumbledore in the Fantastic Beasts series and served as the set for the staircase to the Divination Tower in the Harry Potter film franchise.

6. Former City of London School Daniel Radcliffe attended the prestigious City of London School, which has a reputation for academic excellence and notable alumni. His education at this esteemed school provided a strong foundation that complemented his burgeoning acting career.

7. Great Scotland Yard stood in for the entrance to the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter films. The historic and imposing façade of the building provided a fittingly grand and authoritative exterior for the magical government headquarters.

8. Here you will stand in the footsteps of the Trio as you explore the location where they infiltrated the Ministry of Magic in The Order of the Phoenix.

9. Whitehall Whitehall serves as the location of the Ministry of Magic both in the books and the film series. Also, there is a portal here on Downing Street for the Minister for Magic to communicate with the Prime Minister of the muggle world.

10. Trafalgar Square / Embankment This central London piazza is one of London's most recognised landmarks and was also the site of the world premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 on July 7, 2011, attracting thousands of fans from around the globe.

11. Godwin's Court in London, with its narrow, winding alley and historic charm, is believed to have inspired the set designers' depiction of Knockturn Alley in the Harry Potter series.

12. Cecil Court Cecil Court, a quaint pedestrian street in London known for its antiquarian bookshops and historic charm, is widely believed to have inspired Diagon Alley in the Harry Potter series. The enchanting atmosphere, lined with eclectic shops and Victorian architecture, mirrors the magical shopping district where wizards purchase their spellbinding supplies.

13. Charing Cross Road The entrance to Diagon Alley is located here on Charing Cross Road, a bustling thoroughfare in London known for its bookstores. This central and vibrant location adds a touch of magical realism to the series, blending the ordinary Muggle world with the hidden wizarding realm.
