Top 5 Stops on Our Harry Potter London Tour
1. Platform 9¾ at King’s Cross Station
Snap photos at the iconic trolley installation before exploring our secret filming trivia about the station’s use in Chamber of Secrets. Did you know that the exterior shots of King’s Cross Station were actually of the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel, which the filmmakers felt looked more like King’s Cross than King’s Cross did?
2. Leadenhall Market’s Diagon Alley
Walk through the Victorian market that inspired Knockturn Alley scenes, with guided comparisons between book descriptions and film adaptations. Sharp-eyed fans will also recognise the blue door of the opticians in Bull’s Head Passage as the entrance to The Leaky Cauldron.
3. Millennium Bridge Death Eaters Attack Site
Get exclusive access to our augmented reality app showing CGI comparisons from Half-Blood Prince. This famous bridge was destroyed by Death Eaters in the film, creating one of the most memorable scenes in the series.
4. Westminster Tube Station
Discover why filmmakers closed this location for a full day during Order of the Phoenix production. Westminster Tube had to be closed for a whole day during filming, showcasing the scale of production for the Harry Potter films.
5. Warner Bros Studio Tour Add-On
Upgrade to include tickets to the Making of Harry Potter exhibition, with priority boarding from our drivers. Experience authentic sets such as the Great Hall, original props, incredible animatronics and special effects at this must-visit attraction for all Potterheads.
