The Edinburgh Harry Potter Walking Tour will take place at the Duke of Wellington Equestrian Statue in Edinburgh on 2026-08-08, exploring the places that inspired J.K. Rowling.
Explore the magical world of Harry Potter on a walking tour of Edinburgh. Visit the places that inspired J.K. Rowling.
Step into the spellbinding streets that brought the Wizarding World to life. Follow in J.K. Rowling’s footsteps through Edinburgh’s Old Town, from the eerie gravestones of Greyfriars Kirkyard and the café where Harry Potter was born to the secret chambers of the Department of Magic and the cobbled curve of Victoria Street, the real-life Diagon Alley.
Along the way, uncover hidden inspirations, magical names, and the city’s enchanted charm, all culminating at The Balmoral, where Rowling penned the final chapter of the saga.
Our tours don't have a fixed price. At the end, each person contributes to the guide the amount they consider fair based on their satisfaction. This ensures your guide will give you their very best as they are paid based on YOUR satisfaction
As a guideline, we recommend between €15 and €50 per person
Its all up to you :) Enjoy your tour
