Best way to see the HP studio

We booked this private escorted visit to Harry Potter because with 3 kids, it just seemed so much easier. We were so glad that we did because we could enjoy the visit to the Studios a whole lot more. It's actually a fun place and if you're a Harry Potter fan -- as we all are -- it's a "must see"! Having the private driver take us directly from our hotel to the studios and then back again was a heaven-sent!! Thank you LivTours!

Harry Potter Studio

Great family experience! We are all HP fans so couldn't miss the chance to see the studio. So glad we had our own private driver instead of trying to take public transportation. Made the whole experience so much more enjoyable.

H.P. studio visit

We were picked up at our hotel and taken in a comfortable limousine to the Harry Potter Studios just outside of London. Our driver was very friendly and gave us many tips on where to be and when so that we could get the very most out of our visit. It was very nice not to have to worry about where to go or how to get there and just to sit back and let someone else take care of all of the details. This definitely deserves 5 stars!

Everyone could have fun

This was the first time our children had been abroad so it was important to plan things that would be really interesting and memorable for them. Obviously, you can't go wrong with the Harry Potter Studios! While it would have been fun no matter what, my wife and I really appreciated the fact that LivTours took care of all of the transportation, tickets and other hassles that might have come up had we been on our own. This way, it was completely stress-free and that much more enjoyable for us adults as well as for the kids! This sort of thing is really worth its weight in gold!!! Thanks LivTours!!

Unforgettable experience

Everyone in our family (son age 10 and daughter age 12, including my husband and myself) are Harry Potter fans so there was no way we could pass up the opportunity to see the Harry Potter studios. By taking this tour offered by LivTours, we were driven in a comfortable Mercedes van to and from the studios (outside of the city), there was no waiting in lines or worrying about train schedules or routes. We could just simply enjoy and that's exactly what we did!! We had a great time that we will all remember forever.

Wand-waving wonders in London - some curiosities behind J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter

• February 1, 2024

Embark on a journey through the enchanting world of Harry Potter with our exclusive Private Harry Potter Tour London . As you step into this magical realm, every twist and turn will reveal the secrets that bring J.K. Rowling’s wizarding universe to life. Join us as we unravel additional curiosities that cast a spell on the creation of Harry’s world in the heart of London. From captivating filming locations to behind-the-scenes tales, our tour shines a light on the details that make the magic truly come alive.

1. The enigmatic Knockturn Alley: Goodwin’s Court?

Where? Goodwin’s Ct Covent Garden, London WC2N 4LL

Knockturn Alley , known for its mysterious and dark ambiance in Diagon Alley, extends beyond mere studio sets. Nestled in the heart of Covent Garden , the alluring Goodwin’s Court, a charming Georgian alleyway, provides a peaceful retreat from the bustling streets. Often overlooked, it feels like discovering a concealed portal to another time. With delightful Victorian bay windows that transport you to the enchanting landscapes of Dickensian London, strolling through Goodwin’s Court evokes the ambiance of a Harry Potter novel. This hidden gem served as the actual filming location for Knockturn Alley, boasting authentic street lanterns and ominously painted buildings. The subtle allure of Goodwin’s Court lies in its easy-to-miss nature, adding to the charm of chancing upon this quaint street. On your private Harry Potter tour London, you can easily envision characters like Bellatrix Lestrange or Lucius Malfoy apparating in the midst of the night, adding an extra layer of mystique to this enchanting locale.

2. The artistic Flourish and Blotts: Cecil Court Bookshops?

Where? Near Leicester Square and Charing Cross

Attention to all literary enthusiasts, collectors, bibliophiles, and antiquarians – we have the perfect day out in London for you! Nestled just around the corner from one of the busiest areas in the capital is a concealed treasure trove of literature that you simply can’t afford to overlook.

Cecil Court , adorned with around twenty secondhand bookshops and antique booksellers, stands as a haven for those with a profound love for literature. It’s not just about the sheer quantity of stores within this space; it’s a place where time seems to have stood still for over a century. The unaltered shopfronts create an atmosphere that transports you on a nostalgic journey back in time.

Inspiring the vibrant Flourish and Blotts , the iconic bookstore for Hogwarts students, Cecil Court weaves its charm between Charing Cross Road and St. Martin’s Lane. This hidden gem beckons book lovers into a realm where stepping onto its cobblestone streets feels like embarking on a literary odyssey through the ages. Here, rare, vintage, and out-of-print books await discovery, spanning a myriad of genres and eras. You can visit it on your private Harry Potter tour London!

3. The magical transformation of 12 Grimmauld Place: Claremont Square?

Where? Angel (Pentonville) part of Islington, London

Number 12 Grimmauld Place is the residence of Harry Potter’s godfather, Sirius Black, and serves as the headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix. In the film “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” the terrace houses of Claremont Square, located in Islington, London, were used as the set for Grimmauld Place. Finding the exact match may prove challenging.

The screenwriters drew inspiration from the walls of Claremont Square to recreate Grimmauld Place on the set. The peculiar shape of the square is attributed to its historical use in the 18th century as a water reservoir. When a larger reservoir was constructed not far away, Claremont Square was filled in and transformed into a garden, creating the distinctive small hill that characterizes it today.

4. Where graphic art meets magic: the House of MinaLima?

Where? 157 Wardour St, London W1F 8WQ

Miraphora Mina and Eduardo Lima, integral to the Harry Potter film series’ graphic design team, created The House of MinaLima . From the Daily Prophet to the Marauder’s Map, this charming four-story building on Greek Street in Soho immerses visitors in a spellbinding world of graphic artistry. Every floor unfolds as a magical chapter, showcasing iconic work that enriched the Harry Potter experience.

In their gallery on your private Harry Potter tour London, you’ll discover a treasure trove of Harry Potter props and prints on full display. And that’s not all – they boast an extraordinary Harry Potter shop where you can bring home replicas of your most cherished props. Picture this: your very own personalized Hogwarts Acceptance Letter, the Noble House of Black Family Tapestry, and the coveted Advanced Potion Making textbook from the Half-Blood Prince – all available for you to take home and cherish.

For every devoted Potterhead, a visit to The House of MinaLima is an absolute must on your private Harry Potter tour London. Dive into a complete guide filled with magical reasons why this Harry Potter Shop in London deserves a spot on your itinerary.

5. Reptile House and Harry’s Parseltongue: Regent’s Park?

Where? London Zoo, Regent’s Park, Westminster, London NW1

Regent’s Park adds a layer of magic, blending reel and real-world enchantment. The Reptile House becomes a real-world portal where Harry’s Parseltongue skill unfolds. Lush landscapes and serene lakes in Regent’s Park set the stage for cinematic discovery, seamlessly blending with the allure of London’s royal parks.

In the non-canonical narrative, the Dursley family and Harry Potter made an unusual visit to a particular section of the zoo to celebrate Dudley Dursley’s eleventh birthday on June 23, 1991. During this outing, an intriguing incident unfolded. Dudley, feeling frustrated by a seemingly immobile boa constrictor, was astonished to witness it respond only when Harry spoke to it in Parseltongue, a language he discovered he could speak. Dudley, captivated by the serpent’s movement, leaned against the glass enclosure, which then mysteriously vanished. In the ensuing chaos, Dudley tumbled into the enclosure, allowing the snake to slither away. The zoo descended into pandemonium, with people running and screaming, and the reptile housekeeper stood in shock, witnessing the unexpected turn of events.

6. A stroll through Borough Market: Diagon Alley’s culinary counterpart?

Where? London SE1 9AL, UK

While Leadenhall Market captures Diagon Alley’s whimsy, Borough Market offers a culinary journey akin to the wizarding world. This bustling market, nestled in Southwark, is a treasure trove of gastronomic delights. Explore its narrow alleys lined with vendors selling exotic spices, artisanal sweets, and diverse cuisines. The vibrant and eclectic atmosphere mirrors the magical shopping experience, where the wizarding community gathered for their unique provisions. Borough Market provides a lesser-explored connection to the enchanting world of Harry Potter through the lens of gastronomy.

UK Travel Planning Guide: the FAQs

🏥 Should I buy UK travel insurance?

Absolutely yes. Basic coverage is not expensive, and as a visitor you are NOT covered under the NHS. Compare policies and prices with Travel Insurance Master here , a big name in the travel insurance business, and cross that off your list.

🔌 Do I need travel adapters for the UK?

Yes, you do, otherwise you won’t be able to plug in your electronics/phone/lifelines. I recommend this one , which is all-in-one so you can use it in other countries.

🚗 What do I need to drive in the UK?

The first thing you need to check out if you’re planning on renting a car in the UK is this guide to driving in the UK for visitors – the roads, signs, and driving experience will likely not be what you’re used to and it’s essential to prepare yourself to stay safe and aware.

🛌 What’s the best way to book hotels in the UK?

For UK hotels, Booking is the best site as it offers free cancellation on many properties. If you want an apartment, I always recommend VRBO over AirBnb.

📳 Will my phone work in the UK?

Yes – if you set it up right. Check out my guide on making your foreign phone work in the UK to ensure that you get the type of service you need.

🚿 Can I drink the water in the UK?

Yes, UK water is great and perfectly safe. But drink out of taps in any kitchen or use water fountains. Double check before drinking out of the taps in hotel bathrooms, though, as they may be on a different system. London water is safe to drink .
