Finally, this is how Jonjon finds the Harry Potter Tour - Let the REVIEW begin

“Warner Bros Studio: The Making of Harry Potter” 

(sort-of around London)

I seldom do Brobdingnagian stuff like this. Mainly because I’ve checklisted them long ago and am now only reviewing those that are temporary.

But now here comes the Harry Potter Tour. Located in the town of Leavesden just outside Northwest London – if you book through travel agents you can include a coach that picks you up from Central London.

See for yourself: “Warner Bros Studio: The Making of Harry Potter”

1. The tour is designed as a one-way route. You simply enter the entrance and start walking along.

2. You’ll bump into these magical paintings at some point. They explain the rules and regulations. Some soft advertising is to commence as you’ll also realize how the studio has been expanding ‘all the time’ e.g. with the recent (2015) opening of Hogwarts Express and Platform 9¾.

[Spoiler warning] 3. You’re then brought to a cinema. It’s as smooth as it can get as they bring you from one reality to another – imagine having watched a short clip, the screen goes up and the dining hall comes up next. This is the best moment I find so far.

4. What follows are exhibitions, artifacts, green-screen phototaking, and many, many more sets to explore: the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, the Forbidden Forest, the Diagon Alley.

Now get back on the coach to London. Sounds random, but I'm about to take you to Nottingham next.

When you feel like life is too short, come join my 25-min museum tour. Or find yourself in my novel, check out the photo of the day and finish it off with a secret prize.
