The tour guide was really great, however, I expected more about Harry Potter. I would’ve liked to hear more about the films or the making of the films or the character

Tour started 15 minutes late as we were waiting for one additional guest. Guide did the best she could with the material she had to work with, friendly, always asked if we had questions. Very few highlights during the actual walking tour section - streets were busy - oldest Timber house identified, old pub were cast had breakfast, gargoyle look-alike of Donny, points of interest about other authors and a inspirational Corbel on a building. You do not enter the Bod Library on this tour, just a brief stop at one large room of the 'Divinity College' where hospital scene was filmed. Could not really take photos as too crowded. The portion of the tour that shows the Inspiration for the Dining Hall is at the end of the tour - self guided - at Christchurch College. Also difficult for photos but understandable. Unfortunately I say skip this tour. Not enough information really - a lot of 'could be' 'inspiration for' etc. just buy a ticket to see the Divinity College room on your own - along with other rooms from the University itself. Buy your own ticket for Christ Church College on your own as well. The in between walking portion, is just not worth it. (Not fault of Guide)
