Traveler reviews
Harry Potter Tour
The Harry Potter Tour is fab! Lots of fun facts, questions interspersed with the history of York. Our guide Ellie was brilliant and clearly loves her job. Unfortunately we didn’t complete the last 15 minutes as storm Boelo hit that weekend and it just got to be too much to be outside in it. Ellie didn’t let the weather stop her and was enthusiastic and Informative throughout the tour. I would advise warm clothes and ponchos at this time of year! 😆
Amazing experience with Molly - the perfect guide
We absolutely loved this! Our guide Molly was fabulous - really warm, so knowledgeable and a great storyteller and presenter. What a great way to see the city and connect with it. We would highly recommend this. Thank you Molly for giving our family a memorable tour and for making our wee girl feel so involved in it too!
Fun and History.
You will get great steps and information. Also brush up on your Harry Potter trivia. But really fun. Also budget about £10.50 for the Minster loo and tour ending Butterbeer.
Magical!
Molly was absolutely fantastic!! She was enthusiastic about both Harry Potter and the history of York! The trivia along the way was fun and definitely made you think on your toes! Overall just a cool experience and a wonderful guide!
