The absolute highlight was our guide's historical storytelling. Hearing the tragic story of the young girl nearly hanged at Haymarket centuries ago for 'loving outside of marriage' brought the area's history to life
Robbie was a great tour guide and gave a great tour!! It was awesome seeing Edinburgh in the lense of the Wizarding World
This was as much fun for us as it was for my 10 year old. Great history alongside the HP sights. Finley was a great guide! Knowledgeable, approachable and kind.
Kieran was fantastic! He made the tour super fun, put each of us into one of the houses at Hogwarts and created a little competition. So fun (even though it was raining/cold)! Highly recommend a tour with Kieran.
Great experience!! Would definitely do it again, and highly recommend Guide was awesome, knew his stuff and fun guide!!
My family of 5 had so much fun on this tour. My 3 sons aged 17, 19 and 22, were not very excited to be going on a “Harry Potter tour”. Although they loved the books and movies when they were younger, they thought they were “too old” to do this tour and they were grumbling about it all the way to the meeting point. However, once it got started, they loved it! Robbie was fantastic! He made the tour so fun and interactive. There is a lot of great information about Edinburgh and the “Triwizard tournament” was a blast!
I recommend the tour. While learning about the people in the film is valuable, I find it more fascinating to see the school, universities, and homes from the inside. Additionally, I am interested in knowing more about Harry Potter.
Great informative tour. The guide Leo made the experience special with his bright and breezy style. Always funny and knowledgable. Our favourite tour in Edinburgh so far
We had an excellent time on our tour with Orla! We loved learning some Edinburgh history as well as seeing the Harry Potter points of interest! It was fun, and enjoyable and well worth the money.
Lots of facts about JK Rowling and some of the sources that inspired her writing.
