Services

We have three services, tailored to cater to a range of budgets. Due to the nature of the panoramic London tour, we would strongly recommend booking a service with a guide.

Driver only
An experienced driver who is familiar with our touring routes, but does not guide.

Driver/guide
An experienced driver who can guide from the vehicle. Please note guiding is not permitted inside the Warner Bros Studio Tour, but audio guides can be purchased on site, subject to availability.

Driver with guide
Our most popular option. An experienced driver and a separate professional guide who can guide from the vehicle and lead walking tours in destination. Please note guiding is not permitted inside the Warner Bros Studio Tour, but audio guides can be purchased on site, subject to availability. Please bear in mind that when booking this service, you will need to allow a seat for the guide. For example, booking this service for 8-16 people will allow seats for a party of 15 passengers plus the guide.

The services above do not include entries or meals, but we are of course very happy to help with this - should you wish to include entry tickets or meal bookings please see our FAQs tab.

Booking procedure

Once we have received your booking, our expert staff will create a tailored itinerary based on your locations and pick up address. We may make suggestions and amendments to ensure you maximise your time spent touring. Occasionally additional fees may be applicable in order to accommodate all of your requests e.g where itineraries will require unusually early or late starts or finishes, or if additional pick ups and drop offs are required. If you do have any special requests we recommend you contact us before booking.

If you require additional services, such as meals or tourist attraction tickets, we will be very happy to help. We can offer unbeatable rates at tourist attractions, and work with a selection of amazing restaurants in stunning locations for meals. Details available on request.

Please be aware that tickets to the Warner Bros Studio are not included in this tour. We would recommend booking your tickets as soon as your travel date is confirmed, particularly if you are travelling in peak season (April - September & December).

Your Day

Depart London in the morning and head straight to the Warner Bros Studio to begin this wonderful private day trip! After collection from your London or Heathrow hotel lobby, air bnb, airport arrival terminal, train station, guest house or private address, you'll begin the drive to the Harry Potter Studios.

After a short drive of around 90 minutes, you'll arrive at the Warner Bros Studio, a truly unique attraction. The Studio Tour is your chance to experience the magic that went into creating one of the most successful film series of all time, where you'll see real life sets, props and costumes, all used to make the Harry Potter books come to life! Marvel at the detail throughout the tour as you stroll through the Great Hall, and some of the most iconic sets from the movies, including Diagon Alley, Dumbledore's Office, 4 Privet Drive, the Gryffindor Common Room, the Weasley kitchen, the Hogwarts Express and the latest addition to the Studio Tour, Gringotts Wizarding Bank! During your visit, you'll have the opportunity to discover behind-the-scenes secrets which created the special effects we enjoy in the films, sample a Butterbeer in the Studio backlot, marvel at the intricate details that went into every single part of the films, and take advantage of great photo opportunities. All will be revealed at the working studios where all eight Harry Potter films were produced!

After a magical morning at the Warner Bros Studio Tour London, head back to London for a tour of this spectacular city. Enjoy an eye opening tour of old favourites including Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, St.Paul's Cathedral, the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. We will also see the city's more recent additions; the Shard, the London Eye and the replica of Shakespeare's Globe theatre. Let's not forget that wherever you drive in London you will be constantly passing the homes of great writers and poets, politicians, adventurers, inventors, actors and of course filming locations from world famous movies - undoubtedly something for everyone!
