Ticketing purchased with Headout platform was a breeze. Will definitely use Headout again. Reminders of your purchased ticket will be sent to you days in advance or 1 day before, which is good. HP tour at Warner Bros was a spectacular experience. You will enjoy full max if you are a Potterhead like me. No regrets.

I had a great time at the WB Studios. Sadly, I missed the transport due to a problem with a Bolt that never arrived, but was able to get to the location by myself and my ticket had been left at the Ticket Stand, so I got to enter a little later. I had the time of my life. Make sure to be always on time for transport and plan ahead as London is very unpredictable.

I didn't have the clear information that the total experience with shuttle departure started at 9am. That's why I went there 1h30 before departure, as a precaution and having found conflicting information about it on the web. When I got back, the information about the meeting place was unclear. Otherwise, the tour itself was great!

The only problem is that when you book, it's not written that they count 3 hours of travel out of the 7 hours, so you stay 4 hours at the studios... But personally, I had plenty of time to enjoy the visit and take lots of photos! And I even had time for a bite to eat and a drink before heading off to the boutique!

Loved the studio! 10/10. However, the bus trip could have been better with only small changes. I expected that the bus driver and guide would say ''Welcome'' and a few words about the trip, but nothing. Would have felt better if they said something before and after the studio.

The studios were amazing and the tour well organized. The only downside was the long bus transfer - it is not advertised, that you spend more or less 3 hours on the bus getting to and from the studios...

A childhood dream came true for me that day! For so many years I watched everything on the internet and now I've experienced it for myself. I am so thrilled! Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience, it was breathtaking. And the bus driver who drove us to the studio was also a lovely person and drove us there and back safely. Thank you for everything, I will definitely do it again sometime!

Easy to find the bus stop, very friendly staff. The bus pick up was delayed by more than half an hour due to traffic, half an hour they should have made up for by picking us up 30 min later, as we had to run on the last part of the tour to get to the pick up area.

The whole tour is great. For the bus trip, last year when we left Victoria we had the big beautiful Harry Potter bus and here when we left the Royal Hotel a "Standard" bus, it's detail but I was with my daughter, a fan, and I would have liked to know the difference between the two departures because I wanted her to have the full experience.

The studio is spectacular. Regarding the reservation. It was clear and easy to find the meeting point. What is WRONG is the pick up time. All the explanation they give is WRONG. I took the time 10 AM according to the exception it said that I should be 1.30 before, but no, as I supposed 10 AM was the departure time. So this is a fundamental point to correct in order not to confuse. The rest is ok.

Loved seeing all the props and set from the Harry Potter franchise! The Dark Arts feature performances was immersive and staff was very friendly as well! Not too crowded so we were able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. Direct transport to and from meant we didn't need to worry about bus/train delays so would defintely be doing this again in the future.

The trip to Oxford was definitely added value before we left for the studios was very nice to be able to stand somewhere where a scene from the first Harry Potter movie was filmed. We also had a super nice guide Amber who did her job full of enthusiasm and gave interesting facts during the trip which was definitely an added value.

I had done this tour a few years ago, and that experience was absolutely amazing, so I might have set the bar a bit too high this time. The tour was still enjoyable, but it felt like our guide was in a bit of a rush. He walked very quickly, which made it challenging for the whole group to keep up, especially with kids and the busy traffic. While he covered the basics, I would have loved to hear more details—my previous guide shared lots of fun facts that made the experience even more engaging. That said, the tour was still entertaining, and the quiz added a fun interactive element with points to win during the walk.

Our tour guide was stellar, bursting with knowledge, energy and enthusiasm, so highly contagious. The chance to visit the real life locations where some scenes were shot, learn of the difficulties encountered, the modifications that were made to these locations prenor post shooting and comparing them with the final result that reaches cinema goers , right there during the tour. Great value for money.

The quiz during the tour was interactive and especially our children liked it when they could win a point for their team. The Harry Potter links were there, one a bit more obvious than the other. Our guide explained us everything with a lot of passion! Thank you!

The Harry Potter Walking Tour was fabulous! Perla is an extremely knowledgeable guide, not only about Harry Potter but about London. Adding in the movie clips was great and really helped connect the sights with the films. I saw a different side of London from my other meanderings around the city. I highly recommend this interesting, engaging tour of Harry's London!

Hi, it was great, with Ivan everything was very entertaining, we liked it very much. The only thing I would like to say is that I don't know if more places could be added. Anyway, now I know things I didn't know before! Thanks Ivan!

It was a great tour around London. We saw many things, mostly connected with Harry Potter, but also other fun facts about places and famous people. Our tour guide Luke was such a good sport, with wit and charm he ran a quiz and showed little video clips of the film locations. I made the entire trip on a sprained ancle, but I didn't want to stop, because it was too fun and interesting. My potterhead kids of 9 and 14 loved it as well.

Our guide, Luke, was excellent from start to finish. Mustering, as warned, well before time, he was gracious to the stragglers and ensured that everyone was actively in the stations of the tour. It was an exceedling full day in London (the easter weekend) and he did a sterling job of shepherding the very large group through the various stations whilst making sure that the tempo was not too testing. The structure, content and route of the tour is captivating for readers and viewers with a good eye for details, as they will flourish in the quiz challenge that runs for the duration of the walk after the sorting. Plus, he managed to conjure up some magical weather!!! I can wholeheartedly recommend this to all visiting HP fans.

We were a group of three and it was by far one of the best experiences we have had while we were on our London vacation. Our guide was Ben, who was beyond lovely and did an INCREDIBLE job at showing us around the city and of course, the Harry Potter film locations. Truly the best guide, also according to my friends and open for all sorts of questions and a nice guy to have a conversation with, which made everything more comfortable! :) We were shown around all sorts of places like the original station for 9¾, Diagon Alley, Knockturn Alley, Gringots and so on while also having a good look on the sights around. Definitely a fun experience if you want to give a Harry Potter obsessed Fan who has never been to London before a surprise (Like myself!) Even though the Tour was 3 hours (or almost 3 hours) long, it didnt feel like it and has gone by too fast for me. I would definitely book the tour again (if its Ben of course 😁) when i come back to London.

The tour was good. We found more than double people than said on advertisement when booking activity. I was a bit shocked, really. At king's cross there is a lot of noise and when the guide started talking and we were put in a tiny corner trying to listen at the first stop and we couldnt, in that moment I felt like going away from the activity. The guide didnt bring a necessary speaker. The rest of the tour was better, London was not as crowded as usual and we could walk easily and listen as well. The problem came again when arriving to the very centre, Westminster area. That area is always packed and the guide was tight with time, so at that moment we had an issue with the guide. The guide stopped at the top of stairs of the entrance of the tube to go to London Bridge. He told we had some minutes free. I asked if 10 minutes, he said that was a lot. I understood. We just turn the corner. We took the typical photo, less than five minutes. We returned to the point. Nobody there. We were waiting and looking around, and it was the fiirst time that we were left behind and activity. Anyway, it was a quite tiring for a tourist from another country to struggle to hear in those crowded areas. We met people from the group later , the French group, exactly, and they said they continue without us because the guided said that we told we wanted to finish there, but in any moment, me, the speaker from my companions said that to him. A bit surprised. So, it was a different experience. We enjoyed it anyway, that's true. There were very good parts. The guide talked very well and tried to do it entertaining. But we had that feeling that what you have experienced is not totally fulfilling. One of those things.

Spanish speaking travelers, we have a little difficulty with the language but the translator helps a lot, in the studio of the warner at the entrance if you pay for the audio guide, ask for an official who speaks Spanish to explain how it works and so you do not waste time guessing how it works and fully enjoy the experience, which despite the difficulty with the language was for us a wonderful and unique experience. Everything else, the logistics and punctuality of the guide were excellent.

Our guide was fantastic! I loved her knowledge of London and I loved seeing where parts of the Harry Potter films were made. I also loved the studio tour. The only thing I wished I had was more time in the studio. Even though we had just a bit over three hours, it was super crowded and as a result I didn't have time to buy any souvenirs because I didn't want to miss catching my return coach. Another hour would have made a huge difference for me. That said, I highly recommended this tour for any Harry Potter fans and if you really want a souvenir, visit the shop first.

Great performances and amazing visual effects. Movement and choreography was also impressive. It was a little difficult to hear dialogue from where we were (upper stalls) and some of the view was obscured on one side. Seats were very cramped for such a long performance. Bar staff were lovely.

How well it was done. The service, the artwork, you could tell everything with a lot of dedication and love. I felt like I was the first person who went to see the cursed legacy. All the scenery and equipment used on the spectacular stage. I especially loved being able to feel more part of everything when for example the Dementors rose above the audience or the prophecy of Delphini was written all over the theater. A great experience

the special effects were very good, the piece is very well put together. There was one thing that was disappointing and that is that you have very little leg room.

The show was great, cast was amazing. The theater was a bit stuffy and air didn't flow so well, both my wife and I started to feel a bit unwell as a result with such a long show. But it was well worth it.

The play was very good, the seats were terrible. I'm not tall but I couldn't get my legs out. Then such a 3-hour performance takes a very long time.

The performances were exceptional across the entire cast, the visuals were stunning, exhilarating and so very clever - even down to the scene shifting crew - and the lighting and sound were terrific. In short, everything was fantastic and made for a truly magical experience!

All, especially the visual and sound effects, and except the seats: they were low price with limited vision, so we did not see the top front and it was difficult to see the face of the actors. However, we could hear them well, they were very convincing and the scenography / choreography were superb.

The visuals was great and an amazing theatre to visit. There was too much disturbance during with guests using phones and ignoring restrictions.

100£ for the back row with an obstructed view ruined the experience. The obstuction warning did not specify just how much would be missed. Especially frustrating learning that everyone else in my area only paid 30£ for their seats. That is a much more reasonable price for an obstructed view.

The show is very beautiful and engaging, the actors are outstanding, and the whole technical and stage compartment is magical. Although we were on the balcony, the stage could be seen well and we had no problem enjoying the show to the fullest

The Great Hall at Hogwarts is a pivotal location for Harry and friends: their first sorting ceremonies, the Yule Ball, essential conversations over meals, O.W.L examinations, and of course, the battle of Hogwarts. Walk the same steps as your favorite witches and wizards and soak in the fine details of the location design and props in the Great Hall.
Explore the sets of Harry Potter Studios

Sneak into the Forbidden Forest
Diagon Alley™
Dotted with shops selling books, potion ingredients, robes, and of course, wands, Diagon Alley is a one-stop location for all the essentials a witch or wizard needs. The Diagon Alley set was redone to shoot scenes at Hogsmeade Village for the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban film.
Roam inside Diagon Alley
Platform 9¾
For filming, most scenes were shot at King’s Cross Station in London, while the remaining parts were recreated at the Harry Potter Studios to shoot the famous scene between Harry and Dumbledore at the end of The Deathly Hallows Part II. You would see the actual Hogwarts Express and get to picture gliding dementors, or Trevor the Frog hopping about.
All about Platform 9¾
Proffesor Sprout’s greenhouse
In 2022, Professor Sprout's greenhouse glass doors opened to the muggles, where Professor Pomona Sprout taught Herbology. The greenhouse, built by the original Harry Potter filmmakers, houses exotic and magical plants. You may enter the greenhouse and pluck out a potted Mandrake as part of an interactive exhibit like a Hogwarts student.
Hogwarts Express
Warner Bros. Studios launched a 20,000 sq. ft. addition in March 2015, which included a replica of Platform 9¾ and the original Hogwarts Express steam engine. You may hop on board the train carriage and pose with a baggage trolley as it vanishes through the station wall in the new, permanent exhibit, which shows how some of the movie's most famous moments were made.

Beyond Warner Bros. Harry Potter™ Studio Tours
King's Cross Station
King's Cross Station isn't actually set up within the Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio Tour London itself, but it is a popular departure point for many tours heading to the studios. This is because it's the station featured in the Harry Potter series as the gateway to Platform 9¾, where wizards board the Hogwarts Express.
Visit King's Cross Station
Leadenhall Market
Leadenhall Market, nestled in the heart of London, is where Muggle meets magic! With its stunning Victorian architecture and cobblestone streets, it’s not just a historic gem—it’s also the spot where Harry first glimpsed the wizarding world in The Philosopher’s Stone. Stroll through Bull’s Head Passage, where Harry and Hagrid stepped into the wizarding world!
Knockturn Alley
Knockturn Alley, the shadowy offshoot of Diagon Alley, is where dark magic lurks in every corner. Home to Borgin and Burkes, known for its cursed artifacts, the alley is a hotspot for dark wizards. Harry’s accidental visit in Chamber of Secrets and Draco’s secretive dealings in Half-Blood Prince highlight its sinister role in the series.
Millennium Bridge
The Millennium Bridge, or “Wobbly Bridge,” isn’t just a sleek crossing over the Thames—it’s where magic met mayhem in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Death Eaters twisted and destroyed the bridge in the film’s unforgettable opening scene, symbolizing the dark forces threatening the wizarding and Muggle worlds. This iconic spot would enthrall anyone who is seeking a touch of dark magic in the city.
Borough Market
Borough Market, one of London’s oldest food markets, hides a slice of the wizarding world. In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, the entrance to the Leaky Cauldron was filmed at No. 7 Stoney Street, disguised as a flower shop. Next door, No. 8 served as the Third Hand Emporium in the Chamber of Secrets.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Step into J.K. Rowling's magical world and witness Harry Potter's story continue on stage in Harry Potter and The Cursed Child. Be a part of this immersive theatre experience at the historic Palace Theatre where top talent from Broadway and West End conjures a spellbinding performance. Muggles are welcome too! Even if you're not a Potterhead, the enchanting spectacle of this 9-time Olivier Award winner, hailed as a 'game-changer', will dazzle you.
