I wouldn't exactly call myself a die-hard Harry Potter fan however that did not stop me from visiting the Warner Brothers Studio Tour for a second time and still be amazed as I was the first time. Even if you have never read the books or watched any of the films, you will definitely be impressed by what the studio tour has to offer!
I recommend booking your tickets online (here you will be asked to choose a time slot for the tour) and in advance as it is such a popular attraction - this just means you have a better chance at securing a place at a time that is convenient for you.
The tour lasts for approximately three to four hours which gives you enough time to explore, eat and shop!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- "Behind-the-scenes" access to see how the Harry Potter films were made.
- Detailed props and sets.
- Interactive opportunities in the green screen rooms.
INSIDE THE GREAT HALL - THE START OF THE TOUR
THE BACKLOT - THE MIDDLE OF THE TOUR:
After visiting Platform 9 and ¾'s, you will be lead to what's known as the "backlot". This area allows you to purchase refreshments (personally, I would bring a packed lunch as there are limited food choices on offer and is fairly expensive), enjoy Butterbeer (again overpriced, tastes just like Cream Soda - if you're into that, but also part of the experience) and gently guides you to Privet Drive.
THE MODEL OF HOGWARTS - THE FINAL PART OF THE TOUR:
The model of Hogwarts is 100% the showstopper of the entire tour - no more needs to be said about this!
WHAT ELSE IS ON OFFER?
THE STUDIO SHOP: has a range of merchandise, it's every Potter heads dream - from notebooks to chocolate wands, you will want everything! HOWEVER, you may want to take out a small loan if you do wish to buy something because it is not cheap!!!
Apart from this, if you're looking for a fun day out then I would wholeheartedly encourage you to visit!
