We recently took a Harry Potter walking tour, but unfortunately, the experience didn’t quite meet our expectations. The tour started off on the right foot with a friendly guide, and she immediately set a fun tone, making us excited for the journey ahead. She was full of enthusiasm, and had plenty of interesting behind-the-scenes details about the films that we really appreciated. Honestly, talking to her was one of the highlights of the day, and we had a great time exchanging thoughts on the books and movies.
However, as the tour went on, things started to feel a bit off. The itinerary didn’t seem to flow as well as we’d hoped, and towards the end, we were surprised when we were sent off on our own to explore King's Cross Station. We expected to be guided through the iconic locations with more structure, but instead, we were essentially left to navigate the area ourselves. It was a bit of an anticlimax, especially after the guide had built up so much excitement.
All that said, the tour did have its moments, and our guide was truly fantastic. She made sure to engage everyone in the group and was happy to answer any questions we had. Even though we were let down by the latter part of the tour, we still enjoyed the time spent with her. Would I recommend? No, don’t waste your time, you could perhaps take the same tour but with a different company.
