Traveler reviews
I'm so glad I visited the Harry Potter Studio Tour in Tokyo this time. I bought a ticket for 11:30 AM and was able to enter directly at 11:20 AM. I finally left at 5:30 PM after happily buying souvenirs. As a huge Harry Potter fan, seeing every scene and prop was beautiful and moving. I was traveling alone, and I was able to enjoy all the interactive activities. Except for one not-so-friendly staff member in Diagon Alley, everyone else, like those at Hagrid's Hut, the Dursleys' house, and the restaurant staff, was incredibly kind and polite. They even actively helped me take great photos, for which I'm very grateful! Most areas of the studio had air conditioning, so it was comfortable to explore slowly even in summer. Also, the food at the restaurant and the Frog Cafe was delicious. If you get tired halfway through, I recommend sitting down and resting. This attraction is suitable for both adults and children, and I'd love to come back with friends if I get the chance! I give it a perfect score!
If I could give this experience 10 stars, I would. The tour is insanely cool!!!!! If you're a Potter head like me, you need to check this place out. I bought my tickets here on klook which was easy and quick, and I had no problems at all when I got there. I'd recommend arriving at least 2-2.5 hours early only because you may want to check out the enormous shop that they have before going on the tour. Since there's lots of photo opportunities, you may want to buy some costumes in the shop before going in (the shop has hogwarts house robes, accessories and trunks). Note lines to get in, and all the exhibitions are huge so there's lots of space to explore. The only lines were for the Cafe and photo opportunities, but even they moved really fast. The tour itself can be completed in 2 - 2.5 hours if you're walking straight through everything, but there's so much to see and do that the 4.5-5.5 hours breezes by. Also, try the food and drink at the dining hall after the tour! 10/10 yummo 😋
I'm the same age as Harry Potter and grew up with the series. I even bought the original books, so I've always been very interested and wanted to visit. You can learn how the movies were made and see the sets. The movie props and interactive exhibits are well-done, so if you're a Harry Potter fan, you should definitely go. There were a lot of young kids there too. Wait time: On time Price: Early 50,000 won range Facilities: Clean Show: Good production
Because I was pushing luggage, the trip from Shinjuku, which should have taken only half an hour, ended up taking over an hour. I arrived 20 minutes late for the 12:00 PM entry time, and at first, I was worried I wouldn't be allowed in, as the terms stated that guests should arrive 20 minutes prior and latecomers might be denied entry. Fortunately, I was able to enter without any issues. My luggage was too large for the lockers outside, but the manual luggage storage was conveniently located to the right after entering. The staff here all spoke excellent English, making communication very easy. If I had any questions after entering, I could always find a staff member to help. We were rushing to the airport, so we only glanced at many of the exhibit descriptions, but it still took us 3 hours to complete the visit. Our visit was on a Monday, so there were very few tourists. For some of the more popular photo spots or interactive games, the wait was only about 5 minutes. I was surprised that there was no line for the Ministry of Magic photo spot! 😍 The decor was beautiful, and the merchandise here was much nicer than at other Harry Potter exhibitions, especially the Q-version keychains and figures – they were really cute! Initially, we had to follow a staff member for a tour and watch some introductory videos, which took about half an hour. If you're not in a hurry, I recommend setting aside at least 4 hours for your visit.
One of the best experience I've ever head as Potterhead. We could dig deep to everythinf about the film making, not just the characters. There was some activity to do and not to mention, the frozen butterbeer is just as good as the butterbeer in USJ. We just had to scan the QR from Klook, easy peasy. The staffs there were so helpful too, so many merchs to buy. We spent about 4 hours, the entry was at 12.30 and we still got to see the Great Hall being opened which I thought I couldn't since it was the second session. We could also have all the digital copy of our activities there right away!
If you aren’t Harry Potter nerds you will still enjoy this! We aren’t and we loved it! Took us at least 3.5 hours. Be mindful you cannot take drinks from the cafe in through to the tour even with a lid (despite the sign saying you could). Food was good but looked more impressive than it tasted. Heaps of opportunities to purchase items as several shops throughout, and even a cafe half way through. Plenty of toilets throughout too. Highly recommend purchasing English translation device at beginning but you can cope without it too as lots in English or is subtitled. Also you can arrive early to explore the shops and food hall before your ticketed time if you like as these areas are separate to the tour entry point (literally on both sides). Limited signage from station to the site so use google maps, or follow the crowd! About a 5 min walk.
Excellent! I highly recommend bringing a wand, robe, and scarf that match your favorite house theme. This will help you get many beautiful photos while participating in the activities inside. Anyone who forgets will surely regret it! Our family loved it; our child stayed for 6.5 hours without getting bored. We especially liked that you can have names engraved on the wands. Buying a moving Harry Potter owl to perch on your shoulder was another fantastic touch!
It was an exhibition showcasing the world of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films. I was able to see and hear up close many intricate details, the creation process, and the thoughts of the production team. It was much more extensive than I imagined, and I ended up spending time there until closing. The staff members inside the venue occasionally spoke to us, sharing various tidbits of knowledge and their own insights, which was very interesting. At the entrance, there was also a paid guided tour, and since the studio's name includes "tour," I thought it was a bit confusing, so perhaps the staff should rephrase it as needed. I would love to go again if I have the chance.
