What you'll see and do
Leadenhall Market
Your journey starts at Leadenhall Market, a stunning Victorian covered market that transformed into the bustling Diagon Alley. As you step into this mesmerizing location, you can almost hear the clinking of coins as witches and wizards gather around for their magical supplies. In the film, this is where Harry and Hagrid enter to find the hidden entrance to Diagon Alley. You’ll visit the very spot where Harry first lays eyes on the magical world’s wonders, such as Ollivanders Wand Shop. Keep your eyes peeled for hidden signs and clues — this isn’t just a market, it’s a portal to a magical world!
20 minutes here
Venture to Scotland Place, where the grand entrance to the Ministry of Magic can be found. This location was used in the Harry Potter films to depict the towering, underground structure where wizards and witches govern magical affairs. Picture yourself entering the Ministry through the iconic telephone booth — just like Harry did in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. You’ll learn about the wizarding world’s different departments and, perhaps, imagine what it would be like to work for the Ministry as a wizarding employee!
15 minutes here
King's Cross Station
No Harry Potter tour would be complete without a visit to King's Cross Station and the legendary Platform 9¾. This bustling station is where Harry and his friends begin their magical journey to Hogwarts each year. Stand in the spot where Harry and Ron crashed the flying car into the station’s walls or where the trolley witch pushes her trolley towards the barrier. Here, you can pose for a photo at the iconic Platform 9¾ sign and feel the thrill of heading off to Hogwarts yourself!
20 minutes here
Lincoln's Inn Fields
Next, we’ll head to the enchanting Lincoln's Inn Fields, the backdrop for the iconic scenes of the Great Hall in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Imagine yourself at the long tables, sorting into your house while the magical ceiling mirrors the night sky above. This location doesn’t just mimic the grandeur of the Hogwarts Great Hall but offers a chance to hear fascinating behind-the-scenes stories about the making of the films.
20 minutes here
Borough Market
A visit to Borough Market is sure to satisfy your magical cravings! This vibrant market served as the inspiration for some of the movie’s most delicious moments — especially scenes that take place in the famous Leaky Cauldron. Imagine sipping Butterbeer and nibbling on magical treats. While here, you’ll hear fun facts about magical food and drink from the films, plus try to figure out which stalls might sell what you could find in the wizarding world.
20 minutes here
St. Pancras International Station
Finally, you’ll take a trip to St. Pancras Station, the home of the magical Knight Bus, where passengers can experience a very bumpy ride through London’s streets! While the real station is a breathtaking architectural marvel, St. Pancras has doubled as the filming location for several key scenes involving the magical bus. Imagine squeezing through the packed bus to take your seat, then heading off on an adventure full of magical mayhem. You’ll also hear all about the delightful characters from the Knight Bus, like the driver Stan Shunpike.
15 minutes here
Trafalgar Square
As your magical journey comes to an end, you’ll stop at Trafalgar Square. The square was the site of many moments of triumph and sorrow in the films, including the final battle of Hogwarts. As you stand at the foot of Nelson’s Column, imagine the forces of good and evil clashing around you. You’ll learn how filmmakers created the dramatic scenes set in London and how the final battle marked the end of Harry’s long journey.

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London cost?
+
Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The Magic of Harry Potter Tour for Kids and Families in London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs, The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
