Reviews
Went on a Harry Potter Walking Tour in London and got to see the places that JK Rowling was inspired by when making the movie. Guide also talked abt the history of some of the buildings. so its a historical tour at the same time. Would be good if they had a signage at the meet up point as we almost missed the meeting point or if we could get a harry potter themed pamphlet of a map of where we are going maybe printed for us to refer as we walk
Our tour guide, Max, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He shared not only on the movie scenes/information related to the movies, he also shared some interesting information as we walk around in London. Great way to learn and see London (and of course Harry Potter locations)! ;)
The tour guide explained the details of each place to us very carefully, including the history. Not only did we have a deeper understanding of the Harry Potter scenes, but we also gained a lot of local knowledge about the UK. It is highly recommended for those who are going to the UK for the first time. My friend 👍🏻 will also take the subway on the way and walk on the streets of England, and will also provide personal recommendations of delicious food from the tour guide 👍🏻
Overall walking tour was great if not for the mis-communication on the meeting location. Apparently meet-up point has changed 6 months ago but was not updated in the Klook communication. However the local agent was very helpful when we called up to explain and they quickly arranged for us to attend the afternoon session. Our guide, Megan, was great. Always making sure we are safe when crossing the roads and boarding the tube. Very detailed in explaining the different filming locations etc. Had a lot of fun….would have given a full 5-star rating if not for the mix-up location
The guide was able to help recap on various scenes from the movies when bringing us to various stop. The devices used for communication is also effective. Didn't manage to get tickets to the HP studio and this was a good filler.
It delivered as promised; guide Max was on time, the audio was clear, he had photos and explained the differences between the film and what we were seeing real-time which is something I wouldn't have gotten from a recording or article. He also gave some film, London, and literature trivia so I'm glad that I skipped the other tours for this. The walk wasn't tiring for me; there was a ten minute break in the middle too. The coupon mentions that you might need to buy an oyster card, but you don't have to, the train accepts contactless international cards. Picture taking in the Platform 9 3/4 is technically not part of the tour but the tour ends there so if you're a Harry Potter fan, I'd say make time for the long line for picture taking, it was an hour in my case, and more time for shopping.
Originally scheduled for the morning session, I arrived 15 minutes early but waited almost half an hour. The passengers in the same group called and told me that the tour guide was sick and could not come. Please come back in the afternoon or refund the fee. Originally, I had other arrangements in the afternoon, but after much deliberation, I decided to take part in this tour. The afternoon session went smoothly, and the tour guide arranged was a gentleman in his 70s with many years of experience. In addition to the Harry Potter group, he also took many other groups of famous attractions in London. He said that he had about a year of experience in leading this Harry Potter walking tour group, but I originally expected to have a full 3 hours, but only about two hours and 25 minutes, let us disband at King's Cross Station (terminal) up. I'm not sure if I walked too fast or the guide was not careful enough, after all, it was the first time I participated. This is the reason I only gave it four stars. Everything else is great. The tour guide took the printed movie scenes and took us to a fixed-point comparison to experience all of this. The tour guide's English is also very clear, and it won't be too fast to understand. In addition to Harry Potter-related content, it will also be introduced briefly when passing through some important attractions in London.
Excellent walking tour with lots of interesting facts for even non-Harry Potter fans. Philip the guide was engaging. We covered a lot of ground in 3 hours, walking 10,000 steps, including a short break around St Paul’s and 2 tube rides. My 8yo and 6yo were able to keep up with the tour but we were all definitely tired by the end. My only quibble is that we watched YouTube clips on an iPhone at certain locations - given the size of the group it would have been easier with an iPad.
I really enjoyed this tour as we walked from one film location to the next, with the guide giving us insights to the Harry Potter movies. Plus walking really lets one have a good overview of London.
Our tour guide Megan was absolutely lovely. She was very knowledgable and showing us photos of actual movie while talking about the various spots. Was also very accommodating, constantly checkining if we need anything, lending one of the joiners her travel card because she lost hers, and even taking our photos. Overall an amazing experience and I’m so glad she was our guide.
