More about: Harry Potter London Park Tickets and Tour Prices
One of the most enjoyable activities you can do during a getaway to London is visiting Harry Potter Studios or taking a tour of the locations where the successful films were shot.
Many travelers come to London with the aim of taking one of the best Harry Potter tours, but they can't because the tickets are sold out. Buying them online is very easy, but how much do the tickets cost? Are there reduced rates? Can you participate using a tourist card? I'll tell you all that and more below!
How much do I need to budget for a visit to Harry Potter Studios?

If you're a fan of the Harry Potter saga and one of the dreams you want to fulfill during your trip to London is to visit Harry Potter Studios , starting at $119, you can get a ticket to Harry Potter Studios with round-trip bus transportation included at Hellotickets.
With this ticket to Harry Potter Studios, Muggles can enter the magical universe created by novelist J.K. Rowling to learn how the films were made and what special effects were used, as well as see the sets, props, and costumes that brought the adventures of the wizard Harry Potter to life on the big screen.
What can I see with tickets to Harry Potter Studios?

Harry Potter Studios Park is divided into indoor areas (the common room and dormitory of Gryffindor House, the Great Hall, the Weasley family living room, etc.) and outdoor areas (Platform 9 ¾, Diagon Alley, Ollivander's shop, the Forbidden Forest, and the Dursley house on Privet Drive, among others). And in the sets of both places, you will not only see some original objects from the Harry Potter saga, but also a lot of information about how it was made.
When is the best time to buy tickets?

Harry Potter Studios is one of London's most popular tourist attractions, so it gets very busy. If you buy your tickets online and in advance, you'll be sure to get a place for the date and time you want to visit.
I don't recommend buying them once you land in London, as if the date is approaching, you run the risk of them selling out for the day you wanted and there being no availability. When buying Harry Potter tickets from resellers, you run the risk of being scammed and ending up without a ticket.
Furthermore, unlike tickets purchased at the Warner Bros. Studios box office, this ticket to Harry Potter Studios includes round-trip bus transportation to and from the attraction, which is quite far from central London. So, it's best not to complicate things by having to find transportation, tickets, and so on. Choose a tour where everything is already organized and simplify things!

Can I buy tickets to Harry Potter Studios at the ticket office?

If you prefer to visit Harry Potter Studios on your own, you can also buy tickets on the Warner Bros. Studios website.
Ticket prices are as follows:
- Adults (over 16): from £49
- Children (5-15 years old): from £39
- Children under 4: Free
These tickets only give access to Harry Potter Studios and do not include bus transportation from central London, so you will have to arrange your own transportation.
If you are visiting with children, I recommend choosing the tickets that include bus transportation, as this will simplify things. It will be more comfortable and easier for children to travel directly by bus to Warner Bros. Studios instead of having to travel on different modes of transport and cross the city with several changes along the way to get there.
You can also choose between transportation from Victoria Station or King's Cross, both options include tickets to Harry Potter Park.

- Harry Potter Tour by private car, from $663: for 4 hours, you will discover some of the key locations where Harry Potter was filmed in a typical black taxi with a maximum of 6 people.
- Harry Potter Tour and Thames Cruise: starting at $37, you can combine your tour of the Harry Potter film locations with a beautiful cruise on the River Thames. A highly recommended combination.

Can I take a Harry Potter tour with a tourist card? How much does it cost?

That's right! If you have the London Pass (from €92) or the London Explorer Pass (from €58), you can use it to take tours of Harry Potter locations and many other films such as Mary Poppins, Bridget Jones, James Bond, and Sherlock Holmes.
If you love movies, this is undoubtedly one of the activities you'll enjoy most during your vacation in the British capital, and these tourist cards will help you get the most out of your hobbies while saving money (by not having to pay for each ticket separately) and time (by avoiding queues at the city's tourist attractions).
To choose the tourist card that best suits your plans in London, I recommend reading the post The best tourist card in London. There you will find very interesting information to learn how they work and what each one includes.
How much does it cost to get to Harry Potter Studios or the location tours?

How to get to Harry Potter Studios
Harry Potter Studios Park is located 32 kilometers northeast of London. To get there, you will need to combine several modes of transportation, such as train and bus.
A round-trip train ticket costs around €15 to get from London Euston Station to Watford Junction, the closest station to Warner Bros. Studios.
However, that's not the end of the journey, as you'll then need to take a bus from Watford Junction Station to the entrance of Harry Potter Park. The shuttle bus ticket costs around €4.
For detailed information on how to get there, I recommend you take a look at the post How to get to the Harry Potter studios in London.
How to get to the Harry Potter location tours
To get to the meeting point where the location tour starts, I recommend taking the underground. It's the fastest and most convenient way to get around London, although it's also one of the most expensive. A single ticket can cost between €6 and €8 depending on where you're traveling to.
As the price is a little high, to save some money I recommend getting a Travelcard (a card for unlimited use for a period of time) or an Oyster Card (a rechargeable card that reduces the price of a single ticket), two transport cards that you can use for your travels around the city during your stay.
Is there a free Harry Potter tour in London?

Of course! If you're traveling to London on a tight budget but don't want to miss out on a tour of the Harry Potter film locations during your stay, you can always choose to go on your own (although if you're a big fan of the series, I recommend joining a guided tour because the group dynamic and the guide's explanations make it an even more enjoyable experience).
In any case, there are many Harry Potter-related places of interest that you can visit for free in the city. All you need is a transport card to get around by tube, a map, and a note with the following locations:
- The Leaky Cauldron in Borough Market and Leadenhall Market.
- Diagon Alley in Leadenhall Market.
- Sirius Black's residence at 25 Claremont Square.
- Platform 9¾ at King's Cross Station.
- The entrance to King's Cross Station on the facade of the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel.
- The Dursleys' house in the Whinging neighborhood.
- Gringotts Bank in the Australian Embassy.
- The headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix in Claremont Square.
- The entrance to the Ministry of Magic in a typical red telephone box.
- The reptile terrarium at London Zoo.
