This is a great Harry Potter tour if you want to see cool spots from the film and learn lots of fun facts!
We loved this tour. Alex was fantastic. He was funny and interesting and we would definitely recommend this tour. It takes place in a really cool part of the city too. We all really enjoyed it and we represent a range of ages.

A fun way to see more of London, do it!
Thank you Jako Malfoy for the lovely tour around London, I really enjoyed myself. This tour was highly reviewed and indeed it did not disappoint. I loved the Harry Potter trivia questions that were woven into the tour as well as the general historical facts that were very interesting (peek inside the oldest bar in the world, hear about the gold vaults in the bank, see St. Paul's cathedral reflected in the water, walk the Milennium bridge). It was lovely to see the different kinds of people joining, young, old, and from all over the world. It's really a fun way to see more of London and imagine how people lived in the 17, 18, 19th century. Two things I noticed: I would have liked to know upfront that there is a bathroom break halfway along the walking tour. I wouldn't have been as stressed about drinking anything before the tour. :) We were also done at 12:35 instead of 13:00, so the tour was a little shorter than advertised, although I can imagine this changes depending on the group size and composition. All in all, definitely recommend.

Awesome guide!
Our tour was with Jako Malfloy, who did an amazing job. He was easy-going, fun, and super knowledgeable. We loved the interactive quiz and all the bonus content! We highly recommend it for families and Harry Potter fans. Tip: brush up on all the deep trivia before you come!!

Why this scores 95
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London cost?
+
Prices start at $26 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 Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 95 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 4,881 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour 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 Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London?
+
Around 1,708 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour 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 The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. 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.
What is included in Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London?
+
Included: All our tour guides are trained actors; 2-hour walking tour of Harry Potter filming locations and places that inspired for books; and Quiz to test your magical knowledge. Not included: Gratuities; Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Food and drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Tour for Muggles The Ultimate Harry Potter Walking Tour in London?
+
