Join me, fellow non-magical beings, as we embark on an audio-guided exploration of the Edinburgh that planted the seeds of inspiration for J.K. Rowling’s widely celebrated masterpiece! We’ll delve into the hidden passageways of the Old Town, initiating our journey at Edinburgh Castle. Later, we’ll meander to ‘Diagon Alley’ and discover the tombstones of Voldemort and other renowned personalities from the Harry Potter saga. We’ll also stumble upon ‘Hogwarts School of Wizardry’ en route and optionally, you can pause at the infamous and less-known cafes where J.K. Rowling penned down her thoughts before Harry Potter achieved its best-seller status.
Our expedition will encompass:
• An awe-inspiring vista of the Edinburgh Castle from the promenade located in front
• The Royal Mile, the most prominent street of Old Town
• The Writer’s Museum, a paradise for literature enthusiasts
• Victoria Street, one among Scotland’s most frequently captured streets
• The Grassmarket: here, we’ll narrate the intriguing story of an extremely fortunate woman from the 18th century.
• Greyfriar’s Graveyard
