Overview

Porto is the city that inspired many features of J.K. Rowling’s hit series “Harry Potter.” On this private tour, explore the city through the lens of the Wizarding World and learn about its unique history. Visit the cafe where Rowling wrote several chapters of the first book, see the famous Lello Bookshop that looks like it came straight out of the films, and see the “Gryfinndor” fountain.

A "Magical" Tour of Porto

James_F, Aug 2022

Our experience was incredible! Carlos was a great guide, he taught us a lot about the history behind some of Porto's venues, their significance to J.K. Rowling in her creation of the Harry Potter series, and showed us things we hadn't noticed on our initial, unguided trip through the city! He gave us some good recommendations and getting to skip the line to experience Lello's bookstore was an excellent opportunity!

The tour canceled the day of the event! I was stuck with train tickets to the city so I had to walk around by myself without a tour guide. There’s no excuse for taking reservations and later canceling

Response from Host, Dec 2021

Hi Michael, Good day. We are really sorry for the last-minute cancellation due to some emergency reason on Christmas Eve. We have already refunded the full amount for this reservation as you requested. Thanks for your kind understanding. Kind regards
