Description
Key point- unlike our competition, our group sizes are usually much smaller-typically under 10 persons outside of high season, which makes for a more personal tour.
We are the original Oxford Harry Potter insights tour. Join us on Oxford's original Harry Potter Insights tour to find out why so many other tour operators copied our success tour which has been rated 5 stars by hundreds of happy Muggles Harry Potter fans!
This tour includes £3 entry per person ticket to the Divinity School film site. It does not include entry to the other film sites but we do introduce what was filmed at other film sites in this tour too.
Follow in the footsteps of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger and other characters from the Harry Potter movies. J.K. Rowling applied to study at Oxford University and so she was familiar with Oxford.
When they were producing the films, Rowling walked the producers around Oxford, pointing out various sights which they could use, such as the statue that looks like 'Nearly Headless Nick', and Turf Tavern Lane, which looks like Knockturn Alley.
This tour showcases where the Harry Potter movies were filmed in Oxford. It includes entry to the Divinity School film site, where they filmed the classroom, dance, and infirmary scenes.
You will be passing the city's famous sights and colleges from the outside. You will also be provided with lots of insights about the actors, the producers and about JK Rowling's inspirations.
Test your knowledge of the books and films with the guide via Potter mania questions throughout the tour. The guide will also describe how student life in Oxford compares with Hogwarts.
