The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour
The Ministry of Magic has granted us permission to lift the veil of secrecy for just one day…
It’s spooky season! Join our team of squib guides and step through the brick wall to feel the magic of Harry Potter’s Edinburgh - perfect for Halloween!
This tour will take you on J.K. Rowling’s journey from single mother to acclaimed author; from “the birthplace of Harry Potter” to Rowling’s golden hand prints and venues housing Harry potter exhibitions. With us you will see first-hand the locations that inspired places and scenes from the books and films, including Knockturn & Diagon Alley, the Dark Lord’s grave, the Dementor’s Underpass, and Hogwarts itself. We may even stop off at a couple of Harry Potter shops!
There will be trivia rounds to keep you on your toes and truly test your knowledge of the Harry Potter world. An experience not to be missed for true Potter fans, we’ll show you Edinburgh’s must-see landmarks and key locations from the Harry Potter book and film series.

What our Guests say
“John was an amazing tour guide for us. The tour encompassed Edinburgh items as well as Harry Potter facts. We enjoyed the variety. He thoroughly answered all of our many Potter Fan and at times off topic questions to the best of his ability. He was fun and entertaining!”

“Magical from the start! Thomas was a fantastic tour guide, making sure there was opportunities for drink/toilet breaks; keeping a pace everyone could maintain; stopping regularly to talk about Harry Potter facts as well as the odd bit of Edinburgh history. We couldn’t have asked for more, or for a more appropriately named tour guide!! Would definitely recommend for a tour that is both magical and unexpected; as close to Hogwarts as you’ll get on the streets of Edinburgh.”

“Perfect mix of local history and Harry Potter - revealed so much more than I expected. Incredible value, left us feeling more connected with the city and excited for the rest of the day. Tom was an incredibly enthusiastic, funny and expressive tour guide, whilst being very warm and welcoming to us. Also money towards a great cause - thank you!”
