Planning and execution absolute Disaster: Pick-up significantly earlier than booked and not directly at the hotel, vehicle poorly air-conditioned, other hotels were still visited (was not apparent from the booking), the tickets were not ready at the studio and we had to wait 30 minutes for the tickets (4 hours of time were already running despite the earlier pick-up), the 4 hours in the studios are very tight when it's crowded (we didn't have photos taken at the stations, nor did we eat/take a break and still didn't manage to see everything at a leisurely pace!), then received a WhatsApp from the driver before the 4 hours were up, saying everyone is ready to go: asking if we can come, return trip again poorly air-conditioned, then again not driven all the way to the hotel and turned around in a totally pointless way, so that my daughter had to get out onto the busy street, not recommended and an absolute price/performance disaster Note: the audio guide in the studios was impossible to understand in many places due to the volume (International Friends isn't responsible for that, but it's still worth knowing)
Four hours is not enough to do the tour at a leisurely pace and try out the activities like the broomstick green screen and the chocolate frog card. However, there was good communication before the tour and the driver was courteous and timely.
A little pricey but worth the convenience and great service. Our driver Gabor was great. He texted me before the trip to let me know when he was arriving so we were prepared. He arrived on time and the Mercedes van was comfortable for the 6 passengers. The drive from central London was about an hour or so. Getting into the Harry Potter WB studios was a breeze. Don’t forget to grab a passport for fun activities. 3-4 hours was all we needed. For uber fans who want to read all of the display placards, you may need more time. Our driver arrived to pick us on time and even did us a favor and dropped us off at another location on the way back.
I was here with my husband and our three grown children who are extra sensitive to the impressions that an experience like this has. It was an amazing experience on site, but what made the excursion extra nice was the incredibly nice service with pick-up and drop-off. Professional treatment and safe driving by Rob.
It means so much to our team to receive kind feedback like yours, thank you for taking the time to write this and share!
Wonderful driver and such a fantastic experience!! I highly recommend it!
This is a MUST DO tour for any Harry Potter fan! It was a wonderful experience and extremely immersive. I will do this again on my next trip to London. Our tour driver was Mark, who I highly recommend!
Really cool experience to see the actual sets and props for the making of these iconic movies. Not a theme park and no rides or 3D experiences, walk in diagon alley, gringots bank, and an amazing creation of a scaled model used for the scenes of the Hogwarts castle.
The driver was amazing! Very friendly and caring and on time and smooth! Highly rated and well worth it from central London
The driver was extremely nice and arrived on time and came back early in case we wanted to leave - which we weren’t so he waited for us. It made it easy for us to get to the Warner bros studio with 3 teenagers without having to get up super early to go to where the bus left from. Quite convenient!!
Great experience! Incredible to see all the movie sets. Would definitely do it again. Very memorable
