Fun and informative for all ages. Would recommend this tour even if you are not totally informed about the Harry Potter movies. Good was to see some of London and learn

It was a fantastic experience. Our guide Louis seemed passionate about HP movies and shared fun facts about the behind the scenes at key filming locations. He kept us engaged with interesting quiz. He also covered some non-movie sites which added an extra layer of interest. The pace of the tour was just right. Highly recommended for Potterheads
