Fun, engaging and knowledgeable guide
Michelle_L, Oct 2023
What a fun and knowledgeable guide! We were engaged every minute. His Harry Potter knowledge was deep, yet so was his knowledge of history and pop culture. Well worth the time and the price.

London by George
MILES_C, Jul 2022
This was a phenomenal tour by George who had encyclopedic knowledge of the Harry Potter stories and London as a whole. This, combined with the opportunity for a vigorous walk, made for a day well spent. I hope this tour is available when we next visit London because we will do the tour a second time. Full marks.
Perfect tour with the kids!
Chris_M, Jul 2022
George, our guide, was very pleasant and energetic. He was great with the kids, and really got into the Harry Potter story with them. In addition, he knew a lot of other facts about London that he would speak to in between sites. Great time!
Excellent time

Maria_L, Jun 2022
I highly recommend this tour. Our guide George was very friendly and knowledgeable. Not only was this a great Harry Potter tour, but we learned quite a bit about important sites in London and a bit of history. George was very friendly and patient, and definitely showed us a great time.
Fantastic tour
Steffan_L, Jun 2019
Our family took the Muggle's Guide to Harry Potter Walking Tour in London and had a fantastic time. The tourguide, George, was top-notch - engaged, friendly, professional, and full of information. Not only did we visit various locations around London that were used in filming HP movies, but some really interesting other places on the way as well.
A very good guide
Kasper_B, May 2019
The guide was very good and made the trip such a good experience. He seemed generally interested in what he talked about and his knowledge was not just limited to Harry Potter.

Kristen M, Jul 2017
Took this tour one Sunday with my ten year-old and husband, and what a great way to see the city! George was our guide, and in addition to all the Harry Potter tidbits, we also learned a great deal about other aspects of the city and the surroundings--from Dicken's Olde Curiosity Shoppe to Covent Garden, Trafalgar, Whitehall and more. George was fun, friendly, clearly knowledgeable, and this tour was the perfect orientation to several days of further sightseeing in London. Highly recommend!!

Our experience was fantastic! Tom was our guide. He was incredible. He not only was Harry Potter knowledgeable but also gave us great insight to the landmarks that gave J.K.Rowling her inspiration for many of the ideas that made the books so wonderful. Another awesome thing about Tom was his concern for safety. The busy streets of London can be quite intimidating for a tourist, but Tom always kept us close together and navigated the city very safely. An amazing experience. Thanks again Tom! Wyatt and Erin
