Overview
Whether you're merely a muggle harbouring a belief in the wizarding world's existence or whether you remember He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, this tour will take you through several of the filming locations for the story of the boy who lived.
It may not be September 1st, but unbeknownst to students, trains depart from Platform 9¾ daily. Enjoy a quick photoshoot there before pushing through the barrier, so you don't miss the departure of the Hogwarts Express!
Don't forget to visit Gringott's Wizarding Bank to pay for each of your treasures at the real entrance to Diagon Alley.
Remember the loss of muggle life on Brockdale Bridge as you cross. But never fear, there have been no death eater sightings for many years.
You'll traverse many of London's hidden passageways and filming locations, so keep your eyes peeled for Ernie Prang and Stan Shunpike navigating the Knight Bus throughout the city.
