A Perfect Afternoon - I highly recommend this tour. It is a nice introduction to Edinburgh, with a wonderful Harry Potter theme. Kieran provided a wonderful experience for us. He walked at a nice pace, had a wonderful sense of humor, allowed time to take pictures, and made sure everyone could hear him. A perfect afternoon.

Amazing walking tour.... - Amazing walking tour. Kieran was fun, welcoming, and very informative. He ensured everyone was comfortable and ensured our group remained together in busy areas. Fun game of trivia along the way created a fun competitive atmosphere without it being overwhelming.

Highly recommend - Most fun and enjoyable walking tour I took in Edinburgh. Josh, our tour guide, was not only a big fan of Harry Potter but also a big fan of Edinburgh and its history. He gave us many fun facts about the city and much information about J K Rowling herself. He divided the group into houses and ran some interesting competition between us. I would recommend this tour to everyone.

Excellent for everybodies level of Harry Potter knowledge. - If you are a Harry Potter nerd then this is for you. I went with a friend who was and she loved it. Even though I'm not a Harry Potter nerd I really enjoyed the tour. A nice idea was the little quiz which suited the nerd but the tour guide was very understanding that not everybody had time to read the books and watch the films multiple times.

Wonderful! - Robbie our guide was exceptional. Friendly and knowledgable. Obviously lots of HP informs to on which was entertaining for my 2 super fan children. But also told us lots about general Edinburgh information which I found interesting. We signed up for the tour as we were up in Edinburgh for my partner to run the marathon which was on the same day. Unsure if this was going to have a negative effect but it didn’t at all. Kudos to marathon organisers for being so keen to tidy up after the start. We had a great time and would recommend to anyone who likes Harry Potter but also if you want a manageable walking tour around the old part of beautiful Edinburgh.
