Cần Quan Tâm
Greyfriars
We begin our tour in the city's historic Greyfriars Kirkyard where JK Rowling spent a lot of time while writing the books. Here we'll see several names on gravestones that inspired characters in the series including William McGonagall and Thomas Riddell. From here we will also see two potential inspirations for Hogwarts in the form of George Heriot's School and Edinburgh Castle.
An area of the city named after Harry Potter? Surely not! See the place where she wrote much of the first book from here.

5.00What a great time! I booked this tour for my niece who is a big Harry Potter fan. Our guide Sam was incredibly impressive with his knowledge and passion for the history of Edinburgh and the Harry Potter origin. We were entertained the entire time. I don’t think my sister and I have ever laughed as much as we did that day. My niece had a blast. Would definitely recommend the tour even if you’re not a fan, and Sam the tour guide who will make you want to become a fan!

5.00After landing in Edinburgh and dropping luggage at the hotel, we headed straight for our Harry Potter tour with The Potter Trail. We were able to easily book our tour before we even boarded our plane, so were all set to join when we arrived. Alistair was our wizarding guide and fount of wisdom on all things Harry Potter. The tour was informative, as well as interactive with some friendly Hogwarts house competition regarding various trivia. I especially loved walking through Greyfriars Kirkyard, learning not just where JK Rowling roamed and picked up some familiar names, but also about the kirkyard itself. The tour continued through various parts of the city with more places to see and hear about the ties to Harry Potter. Fun for all ages!

5.00Great experience. I did my tour with Becky. Originally I was going to just walk myself to these special JK Rowling Harry Potter inspired spots but I had some time that freed up in my schedule so I went. It was amazing! Becky was super informative to the point there was a lot of obsecure Harry Potter fun facts about these places. She engaged with all folks and made every feel very welcome. I love that the Potter Trail does tips/ is donation based so it really truely does feel like everyones welcome.

5.00The walking tour was FANTASTIC! Outstanding way to see, know, and experience the process of how the creation of the Harry Potter story. Alistair made the tour more entertaining and enjoyable by adding a little spell casting, participation, and great trivia… which most true Harry Potter fans like me don’t even know. My husband and I truly enjoy the tour. A plus, the tour is “FREE” and only through donations… however, it rivals most paid tours we have taken in the past! Highly recommended to all and to those Harry Potter-head (LOL) visiting Edinburgh. Safe travels!
Amazing

5.0010/10 tour! We learned so much about the series and inspiration behind them all! Everything she said was based on fact and clearly stated when something was being speculated. Very easy to hear, not a ton of walking, and super engaging! I would definitely go again.
Magical, Fun, and Perfectly Timed Tour

5.00We had such a great time on the Potter Trail walking tour! The tour was very well timed — the length was perfect and everything ran promptly and smoothly. Mel was knowledgeable, fun, and stayed completely in theme the entire time, which made the experience even more immersive. We especially loved hearing about the facts and inspirations behind the stories. It actually helped my husband become much more engaged with the movies and books, and he may even read them himself now! Highly recommend for both longtime fans and those newer to the Harry Potter world.
