Top Europe Harry Potter Tours - page 8

This was a wonderful tour that took us into back alleys, little streets and markets that were scenes in the Harry Potter movies. We never would have found these on our own. Our guide did a fabulous job of pointing out and providing historical facts about other landmarks we passed. This is a three walking tour with a couple of underground rides thrown in. You must be able to walk on uneven sidewalks and do stairs. Wear very comfortable walking shoes and take water to hydrate along the way. There is an opportunity to shop in the beginning of the tour for Harry Potter souvenirs.

Shane is a very pleasant and knowledgable guide! He told us a lot about Oxford history, the unique college system, student life and famous movies filmed there. For Harry Potters fan, you will see everything with Shane. The magic was really fun and well executed. To this day, I still don't understand HOW 🪄 We really appreciated his advice on where to spend our time and money. Some colleges or HP visits are quite expensive and aren't always worth it. We don't regret following Shane's advice after visiting the huge Blackwell's bookshop and New College (instead of Church College). The tour lasted 1h30 but wasn't tiring as you don't have to walk that much. I think this is really accessible for children or people with small walking difficulties. As non-native English speakers, Shane speaks very clearly and slowly. My sister, who doesn't always understand English, told me she followed well and understood almost everything. In conclusion: We recommand this tour to everyone: adult, children, history lovers, magic lovers...

It was a marvelous walk all around the city. Our guide pointed out where many scenes from the Harry Potter films were shot as well as giving a little history of the areas we walked through, such as Trafalgar Square and Scotland Yard. It was very enjoyable .
