Harry Potter: Southwark to the City
After visiting the film location for the Leaky Cauldron (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) and the Third Hand Book Emporium, we admire a floating museum displaying the Gryffindor colours. See if you think this might be the inspiration for the Durmstrang ship in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
We see an infamous Muggle prison where prisoners were tortured and forgotten and compare that to the origins of Azkaban prison, once a place where Muggles were lured and tortured.
Take in the iconic views of London as we cross Brockdale Bridge (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix) and hear the spine-chilling eyewitness account of the Death Eater attack of June 1996.
In a city surrounded by dragons, we discuss the importance of the several security breaches at Gringotts Bank and learn about the wizarding world's currency. How many galleons would a wand cost?
Wind through the old streets of the City of London, will we find Diagon Alley? We venture to the original Leaky Cauldron where Harry Potter ventures for the first in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

"I attended this walk with my friend, and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Hazel truly is a huge Potterhead and she knows a lot - which makes it wonderful to listen to her. We could have kept walking and discovering even more things! thank you ever so much!" C Orlando, Peterborough

Fantastic Beasts - Where to Find them in London
This fantastically fascinating guidedwalk takes in the historic centre of the City of London from the splendour of St Paul's Cathedral to the domineering Tower of London. Explore how these fantastic beasts are entwined in our Muggle world.
Can you tell the difference between Britain's native Hebridean and Common Welsh Green Dragon? More importantly where in London can you find one?
Griffins are fierce and employed by wizards to guard treasure. The two we encounter have become a status symbol for an aristocratic family. But why?
Where in London can you find a magnificent mythical, swan-sized bird with its wings outstretched. Why is he needed here?
Unicorns have no reason to hide in the city streets and prance proudly in the face of hungry lions.
What spell is required to protect winged horses or hippogriffs from Muggles? Could you handle a fire crab as a pet?
