Benjamin was an amazing tour guide, who animated his stories with enthusiasm, wit and humour. His memory based facts helped us learn more about J.K Rowling, as well as the Harry Potter books and films franchise.

This is a tour around Edinburgh with tenuous links to the WRITING of the HP novels. Yes JKR was in the city working on books including the Philosopher’s Stone but seeing what used to be the cafe where she sat doesn’t really excite ???? Otherwise very weak links - a shop that now sells HP merchandise and another that is named Potter but existed before any of the books. Not at all what was expected and a major disappointment

Benjamin was great tour guide, engaging and funny. We had two kids in the group and his little quizzes with house points just topped it off! The tour was more focused on JK Rowling I'd say and her experience and inspiration but it was full of great information and really great was to see the city. Thanks Benjamin!
