Itinerary

  • Greyfriars

    45 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    We begin our tour in the city's historic Greyfriars Kirkyard where JK Rowling spent a lot of time while writing the books. Here we'll see several names on gravestones that inspired characters in the series including William McGonagall and Thomas Riddell. From here we will also see two potential inspirations for Hogwarts in the form of George Heriot's School and Edinburgh Castle.

    An area of the city named after Harry Potter? Surely not! See the place where she wrote much of the first book from here.

    5 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Harry Potter connections to the Museum and surrounding area - and also learn about the Balmoral Hotel where JK Rowling finished the series.
  • The Elephant House

    5 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    A cafe that promotes itself as the "Birthplace" of Harry Potter. We will explain why those inverted commas are very important...
