Overview
Join us as we venture into the magical world of witchcraft and wizardry of Harry Potter in London!
On this walking tour of London's streets we will watch clips from the movies while we regale you with behind-the-scenes stories of those locations and how they were used in the film series. Our first stop will be the entrance to Diagon Alley, before we pop down to see the Ministry of Magic, and find out which Leaky Cauldron has the best tacos, as well as others we don't want to spoil here.
We'll also share some of the strangest and funniest non-HP facts that we've learned about London along the way.
We will finish at Borough Market, London's top street food destination, with King's Cross just a separate Tube ride away.
