Your experience

Step into the Potter magic realm

Journey into the world of Harry Potter with the Harry Potter walking tour of Edinburgh. Starting at the historical Waverley Train Station, feel a frisson of excitement, much like a young wizard embarking on their Hogwarts journey. Your local guide will then lead you to Edinburgh University Old College, a sight that might kindle the desire to live the life of a Hogwarts student. The adventure continues to the spooky Greyfriars Kirkyard, daring you to spot Tom Riddle's grave among the tombstones that inspired many a character name in the series.

From graveyards to Diagon Alley: A Potterhead’s delight

Wander along the vibrant Victoria Street with its whimsical architecture that inspired the portrayal of Diagon Alley. Take in the majestic sight of Edinburgh Castle and drop by the cozy Elephant Café. As you sip on your drink in this cafe, imagine J.K. Rowling scribbling character names on a napkin and breathing life into the series right there! The tour concludes with a walk through the Old Town, giving you a taste of Edinburgh's rich history intertwined with the magical world of Harry Potter. The experience does not include meals but rest assured your curiosity and spirit will be well-fed. Children can partake for free, making it perfect for a magical family outing.
