Awesome

Dionella_B, May 2023

This tour was the most awesome and amazing due to our wonderful guide Michael. He really made the whole tour so much fun and also a challenge on remembering the bits in the movies!

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thanks for the lovely review! Glad you enjoyed your taxi tour with Michael

One of the highlights of our trip to London!

Joseph_C, Apr 2023

Michael was the best tour guide we could’ve had for this experience. He was very knowledgeable about all things, Harry Potter, and was very engaging for my equally knowledgeable daughters. He was very professional, driver and guide. Since he is a father, he was very engaging as a father figure. He was attentive and asked my daughters, lots of questions to keep them engaged. In addition to knowing Harry Potter, in and out, he was very knowledgeable about the history of London, and able to point out many things during our drive. this was definitely a highlight of our trip. we definitely recommend doing this excursion if you have a chance. Having Michael as our private tour guide was a huge plus!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thanks for the great review! So glad you enjoyed your Harry Potter taxi tour with Michael.

BRILLANT! MAGICAL! TRIP HIGHLIGHT!

Taylor_R, Apr 2023

We had the MOST magical Harry Potter Black Taxi Tour of London with our guide, Mr. Michael. He arrived 15 minutes early and accommodated us running late. Michael took us to all our favorite Harry Potter sites, plus other interesting London sites, teaching us fun history along the way. His tour made not only our day, but our ENTIRE trip, a true highlight for everyone in our family! Michael truly cares about his passengers making sure all our needs were met and that we had the most wonderful time. When it was time to conclude our tour and say goodbye to Michael, I had HAPPY tears in my eyes. :). Thank you, Michael, and Viator tours!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thanks for your wonderful review of your Harry Potter taxi tour with Michael.

Yelena_C, Apr 2023

Amazing tour

Meagen_E, Aug 2022

My two girls and I really enjoyed this trip. The driver was kind and knowledgeable. And funny! He had great spots to park in and joined in on the fun. I highly recommend if you are a Harry Potter fan. My kids loved the Black cab car as well.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

So glad you enjoyed your Harry Potter taxi tour!

A+++ Tour

Charly_T, Jul 2022

WOW the best thing to do on your first day in London!!! We had the most wonderful time saw lots of sights and learned some amazing things along the tour.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thanks for the review! So glad you enjoyed your Harry Potter taxi tour with Mark.

Magical!!

Kelli_B, Jun 2022

Mark was such a great tour guide for our visit to Harry Potter’s world!! He was so knowledgeable and even gave these super-fans a run for their money. We especially appreciated that he showed a clip of each movie scene to refresh our memories when we arrived at sights. Mark was also great about pointing out non-HP sites along our journey! Would highly recommend Mark and his Harry Potter tour!! 🪄

Great time if your a Harry Potter fan

Charles_C, May 2022

This was great value for money. Our kid is a big HP fan and we were taken to lots of parts of London where scenes were filmed. Our driver had the scenes on an iPad as a refresher and we also saw quite a few neighborhoods we would not have seen had we not taken the tour. Our driver was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. Wonderful experience.

Response from Host, May 2022

So glad you had a great time on your Harry Potter tour. Thanks for the lovely review.

Great Tour!

Alexandria_H, May 2022

Our driver Mark was very knowledgeable and didn't miss anything. We got to see a lot of Harry Potter filming locations and also got to see the sights in London. If you are a Harry Potter fan this is a great tour and if you aren't, it's still a great way to see the city.

Response from Host, May 2022

Thanks for the review! Glad you enjoyed your Harry Potter London tour with Mark.

Not worth the $.

Nazar_K, Apr 2022

They took us to some of the sites where they filmed Harry Potter. It was basic locations like a street the night bus drove on or the entrance to the ministry of magic. I would have preferred to go on a history tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Thanks for your comments. Harry Potter tours are really for Harry Potter fans who love to see the locations in London were the Harry Potter movies were filmed. If you had booked one of our highlights tours we would have been more than happy to take you on a history tour of London.

Great activity for the kids!

Lisa_P, Apr 2022

Mick, our driver was great! He was very sweet with our young girls and kept them interested by showing little clips of the movie scenes where we were visiting. This is definitely geared towards kids, but my husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the cab while being driven around London after a long day of sightseeing.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Thanks for your lovely review. Glad both you and the children enjoyed your Harry Potter tour!

Wonderful experience!

Esther_R, Apr 2022

Mark was kind and flexible and very knowledgeable. We had a great time and saw a lot in the 3 hour tour! Thank you!!

Fantastic Harry Potter taxi tour.

Noeline_M, Jun 2021

Mark A. was an excellent guide, the trip was well thought out and very informative. My 8 year old daughter loved the Harry Potter sites and the additional stops Mark A kindly made at our request. It was a thoroughly enjoyable morning.

Harry Potter experience

Alison, Feb 2020

Our guide was absolutely wonderful. Enthusiastic about Harry Potter but also passionate about London itself. He brought an edited dvd excerpts so you relived the movies as you stood on location. Great fun.

Our driver and guide, David was awesome!

Adam_T, Jan 2020

David was awesome and he could not have been more friendly or professional. He was very nice, very knowledgeable and he tried to make this the perfect trip for us. David was prompt, courteous and very engaging. David deserved more than five out of five stars.

Clementino S, Oct 2019

Wonderful and Special

stacey_k, Aug 2019

Our driver was super nice and accommodating. Perfect amount of history, DVD and sites. It was my kids favorite part of our whole trip!

Harry Potter movie sets tour

Sharon_A, Jul 2019

If you are a real Harry Potter fan then you will really enjoy this tour. We saw all the actual sites where the movies were filmed. David our guide was great and very knowledgeable about Harry Potter and london in general. Going in a private black cab was great we could go and do what we wanted and he allowed us to stop when we wanted too! So fun

Our driver was a driving encyclopedia of all things London!

Camille_F, Jun 2019

My entire family of 5 consisting of my elderly father, my husband, and 2 kids (9 and 12 years) thoroughly enjoyed this private tour. Our driver, Gerry, was so great! Only negative comment has nothing to do with the company or the driver but just know that London traffic is horrendous so getting around takes a while. Otherwise, our 3-1/2 hour tour through central London and all the Harry Potter sites were fabulous! We were staying at a hotel that was outside of the usual pick up zone but was able to be picked up still with a few extra pounds. If you cannot get to the Warner Brothers studio for the real Harry Potter experience, this was a nice substitute.

Outstanding Tour

Elaine H, Jun 2019

My husband and I took our tour along with our three grandchildren. Our guide, David, was absolutely wonderful. He was personable, well-organized, and very knowledgeable about all things Harry Potter. We all enjoyed seeing the many London sites used in the filming of the Harry Potter movies. I highly recommend this tour. I will most certainly use this company again on a future visit.

More than just Harry Potter

Alex_H, Nov 2018

While touring Harry Potter movie locations in London you will also learn a lot about other historic sights, monuments and attractions.

Excellent!

Daydream23368268187, Nov 2018

We had a great time, our guide was a resourceful and witty companion, we enjoyed his company and professionalism greatly. We strongly recommend this tour to anyone who have a Harry Potter geek in their family and don't know much about the books themselves.. :) The guide is a perfect partner for your kid and takes off a great load off your shoulders if you are sort of fed up with the story.. :) Good job!!! Thanks!

Great experience

Katherine_H, Aug 2018

Our driver was great. He really went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying ourselves . It was a nice touch having videos of the movies on his IPad.

Harry Potter

Veronica_W, Aug 2018

Our driver was Mark and he was so nice, friendly and knowledgeable. We had the best day in London with our teenagers(11 and 14). The tour was so much fun and then he went above and beyond with tips and recommendations including tips for our outside London plans. Mark made the tour excellent and his car was super clean too.
