Is the Harry Potter guided tour worth it?

For Harry Potter fans, yes it is worth it. For younger children, no it probably isn't. It is a lot of money but you can spend an entire day there if you want which makes it seem more reasonable. We hope you found our review of the Harry Potter Studio Tour helpful.

The Warner Brothers Studio Tour is one of the most sought-after Harry Potter tours in the UK, as it takes you around to visit real sets that were used while filming the movies. While on site of the 'real' Hogwarts, you'll get to see everything from costumes worn and props used by the original actors in the series.

Visit Harry Potter™ Studios during the first half of the day. The tours are lengthy and take anywhere between 3 and 7 hours. Hence, it is recommended that you book an early slot because the crowd peaks at around 4 PM. You can enjoy a stress-free and pleasant experience.

Answer: You can expect the total Studio Tour experience, including the guided portion and self-guided areas to last about 3 hours. You will spend about 1 hour with your guide and the remainder will be self-paced.

Helpful? It is more like a museum. The building is quite cozy and warm. You will be cold going from the car to the building but inside the building you would be fine dressed however you like.

Another popular question we receive, is how many days should I plan at Harry Potter World? And as you can imagine there are so many amazing things to do in each section, you should give yourself at least two days to experience everything the Wizarding World of Harry Potter has to offer.

Helpful? The ride is free but is video taped by Warner Bros and then you have the opportunity to purchase the video and pictures when you are done. It is not cheap but they do a really good job. Helpful?

It's recommended to allow around at least three and a half hours. While you could rush round in less time if you're visiting with younger kids (or less committed fans), it's not a cheap day out so it's worth making the most of it. You can very easily spend longer too.

ENTRY TIME We recommend you arrive 20 minutes prior to your ticketed time. Before your tour begins you will have access to the Food Hall, Hub Café, Studio Shop*, cloakroom and toilet facilities. Those arriving after the last tour of the day cannot be guaranteed entry.

Harry Potter World London, known as the Warner Bros Studio Tour London, is the best way to explore the making of the Harry Potter movies. Located just outside of London, go behind the scenes to get a glimpse of a world of witches and wizardry.

Plus, that one day would be extremely rushed, and it's better to have that extra day to take more things in. I found that two days was the perfect amount of time to see everything in the Wizarding World, explore other Universal lands, and go on plenty of rides.

Keep in mind that we strongly recommend to plan on going first thing in the morning and again late in the evening; The Wizarding World of Harry Potter lights up at night, and it's spectacular. (If you'd like to see more pictures of the Wizarding World at night, check out the photo gallery below!)

That said, Wizarding World (like most of the rides at Universal Studios) is probably best suited for kids 7 & up. Kids who are already well-versed in all things Potter will have the best time since every nook and cranny is inspired by J.K. Rowling's sprawling imagination.
