Tour Details

At the designated time, we'll meet at the William Chambers Monument to begin this walking tour of Edinburgh. Ready to dive into the magical world of Harry Potter?

First, we'll head to Greyfriars Kirkyard, where you'll see the real grave of Tom Riddle. As you explore the old town, you'll stroll along its narrow, winding streets and admire its historic buildings. You'll see how much the author was inspired by this vibrant city.

Next, you'll find out which Hogwarts House you belong to—Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, or Slytherin. After revealing your house, you'll have the opportunity to test your Harry Potter knowledge and earn points for your house!

Afterward, we'll go to the Edinburgh City Chambers, the meeting place of the City of Edinburgh Council. You'll see JK Rowling's golden handprints outside the City Chambers. She was honored with the Edinburgh Award in 2008 for her contributions to the city.

This Harry Potter-themed walking tour will finish at the Edinburgh City Chambers after 2 hours. Hope you had a magical time!
