Amazing Experience! Harry Potter Studio Tour

 Harry Potter studio tour lobby

This is where the cast and crew spent 10 years making the films, and they kept just about everything they every used and put it on display here for fans. The first thing you have to know about this completely fantastic magical place is that you can’t buy tickets there. It’s not like an amusement park or museum where you can roll up in the morning and walk in. Tickets must be bought onlineahead of time. You choose not only what day you want to go, but what time, so it’s like making an appointment. 
Because the tour just opened this spring, tickets were sold out weeks in advance, so my friend and I bought these tickets first, and then planned the rest of our trip around it. You don’t have to do it months ahead, but if this is something you really want to do in England, I recommend checking to see if tickets are available early in your trip-planning stages to avoid disappointment.
Every important object and set is here, from the horcruxes to the wands to Ron’s Howler to the seven-layered box that Mad-Eye Moody was trapped in. There are costumes and wigs and even the templates that were used to put the lightning bolt scar on Daniel Radcliffe every day.

 To see these objects that are so familiar to fans is very cool, but to see them in the place where all the actors spent 10 years of their lives, where all of the films actually took shape, was very moving.
