Departing with your private driver guide, set out to see all the locations in London used for the films. Visiting these locations is great fun for Harry Potter fans, and their friends and family!
During your two hour private taxi tour, you will see memorable sites. Your professional cabbie will come and collect you from your hotel and then take you on a magical journey through London, passing Gringott's bank, Leadenhall market and the river Thames that Harry flew along on his broomstick, in the Order of the Phoenix . Harry flies above Westminster Palace on his way to Grimmauld Place, both of which you will see, before arriving at the Third Hand bookshop, where Potter met Gilroy Lockhart, his future tutor.
The tour continues to Brockdale Bridge , as featured in the Prisoner of Azkaban, where the treble decker night bus squeezes past the two oncoming red buses. Then we’ll see the Leaky Cauldron and stroll through Diagon Alley where the wizards meet, drink and buy their books owls and Nimbus 2000 broomsticks. The alley is also home to Ollivanders where Harry buys his Phoenix wand.
No tour would be complete without a visit to the entrance of the Ministry of Magic, where Arthur Weasley takes Harry to the disappearing phone box. You’ll also see the Millennium Bridge , as featured in the Half Blood Prince.
Finally we visit King Cross Station where Harry and Ron first meet and then disappear through the brick wall at Platform 9 ¾! Plus you’ll see St Pancras station over which Ron and Harry fly in their blue Ford Anglia. You will then be returned by your taxi (sorry no magical brooms) to your starting location.
