⚡ Harry Potter Tour

Meet your witch or wizard guide at the Oxford Walking Tours Sign on Broad Street, outside the blue gates of Trinity College and embark on an enchanting Harry Potter experience. On this tour, you will be sorted into your Hogwarts House and handed your wands before we set off on a magical journey around the historic locations of Oxford.

✨ Tour Highlights

  • Wander through New College: Walk the medieval corridors of Emma Watson's College, founded in 1379.
  • The Divinity School: Visit the Bodleian Library’s ancient ceremonies room, where Harry was visited by Dumbledore in The Philosopher’s Stone.
  • A 650-Year-Old Tradition: See the oldest dining hall in Oxford, where students have been eating their meals in traditional gowns for nearly six and a half centuries.
  • The Malfoy Ferret Tree: Stand under the tree where Draco Malfoy tried to curse Harry Potter—but ended up being transfigured into a ferret!
  • The Restricted Section: Peer up at the windows of the Hogwarts Library, where real-life ancient books are still chained to the shelves.*
  • Magic vs. Reality: Learn how the subjects studied at Hogwarts compare to the centuries-old curriculum of the University of Oxford.
  • Flourish and Blotts: See Oxford’s own version of the famous wizarding bookshop, home to a vast underground cavern filled with books.
  • Hidden Gems: Peek into the mysterious Oxford college that’s even harder to get into than Hogwarts.

📝 Please Note

Christ Church College: There is no entry to Christ Church College on this tour. While popular myth claims the Christ Church Hall was used for filming, it was actually replicated on a studio set (though its grand staircase was used for filming). Your guide will gladly direct you here if you wish to visit independently after the tour.
*Duke Humfrey's Library: Interior access to Duke Humfrey's Library (the Restricted Section in the films) is strictly limited to members of the University. While we cannot go inside, your guide will show you exactly where it is and share its magical history from the outside.
