Best Harry Potter Tour Ever! OMG! This was absolutely the most wonderful time! Jackson is hands down the best guide I’ve ever met — an endless source of fun facts, humor, and pure passion for the world of Harry Potter. You just can’t resist his energy! Massive shout-out to our amazing Slytherin guide, Jackson 🐍💚 Aside from the magic of the tour, Edinburgh itself is breathtaking — it’s impossible not to fall in love with this city. And discovering all the Harry Potter history woven through its streets (after all, it is the birthplace of HP!) makes it a total dream for Potterheads. 10/10 would do it again! ⚡️🏰✨
