- Is Warner Bros Studio Tour In London still worth going to?
The Making of Harry Potter is a walkthrough exhibition and studio tour in Leavesden, South East England, owned by Warner Bros. and operated by their Studio Tours division. It is located within Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden, in Watford, in southwest Hertfordshire, and houses a permanent exhibit of authentic costumes, props and sets utilised in the production of the Harry Potter films, as well as behind-the-scenes production of visual effects. The tour is contained in Soundstages J and K, which were specially built for the attraction, and is separate from the studio's actual production facilities
opened to the public in 2012 and has since welcomed up to 6,000 visitors a day during peak times. TripAdvisor reported that Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter has been the highest-rated attraction worldwide every year since the tour opened!

I can't believe how many say they are not a fan of the movies. Try watching, they are amazing!
💯💯💯💯💯👍🏻
No thanks
But I read books
💯
Mediocre at best… far superior films out there.
I remember visiting here back in 2014 in the early years of the studio and was wowed as a teen by the quality of the sets and the scale of the props. Having seen this video I would love to visit again, especially with all the fantastic additions. Its great to see an attraction actually develop and improve throughout the years, rather than stay stagnant and offering the same for more money.
Went on Saturday. You say the tour lasts for three hours but committed Potter fans, and those who are fans of the technical side of film making, can easily spend 4 - 6 hours because it would take that long to study everything in detail as the number of exhibits is colossal. Our tour was booked for 2.30 - it took until 4.45 to get to the Back yard and cafe, which are perhaps a little more than halfway through. Definitely worth the money and a 'must see' attraction for all Potter fans.
Are there toilets during the tour?
@@DrowningB Yes the toilet facilities are decent, you're never too far from one. Plenty of helpful staff around if you need pointing in the right direction, too.
I went back in June with my 2 youngest. We loved it, and all want to go back. I will say though, if you buy a Butter Beer at the Back Lot Cafe, don't forget to take your tankard home with you, it's included in the price and they have a washing station just outside so you can clean it before popping it into your bag 😊
That was amazing! Loved it. One day I’ll get there! Thanks Tim!
I have not seen much of the movies but this is amazing to see everything. Good job Tim. Harry Potter fans will love this.
I loved this video! You did a great job of showing us what the Harry Potter Studio Tour London is like and giving us your honest opinion. I’m a huge fan of Harry Potter and I’ve always wanted to visit the studio tour, but I was worried that it might be too crowded or too expensive. After watching your video, I think it’s still worth a visit, especially if you’re a Potterhead like me. It looks like such a magical experience and I would love to see all the props, sets, costumes, and behind-the-scenes secrets. Thank you for sharing your tips and insights with us! 😍😍😍
I wanted to visit as well! How much does it really cost?
I teach Media at a secondary school and have run trips there for about 6 years. Like the other comments they have added to it over the years so I enjoy every visit! From an educational point of view it’s amazing, they provide an amazing experience for students such as free hands on workshops and insights that make it special for the students. Very friendly staff too, fantastic place to visit 😊
Definitely agree Bob
It was bigger than i thought.
Having been 14 times now and planning a 15th, I absolutely love the tour. Seeing it change over the years has been amazing, it was so different the first year it opened. I've learnt it's best to hang around in the Great Hall right up until the next group is getting ready to be allowed in, that way you can end up in a sort of middle bubble between groups that's way less busy and easier to see everything
That's what you call commitment
Wow
Defo
Thats afew to many time tbf
oh wow, you will be the best person for me to ask a question then, so im in a wheelchair and i really dont like crowds so what day or time would you say is best to go
I went years ago and it felt just like a museum, looking like it's been updated to be more hands on and interactive. Might be time for another visit
Yes you are right and this guy is right about Gringots, it's fantastic but it only opened last year so many who've been before have not seen it.
Thank you Tim for another wonderful video.Appreciate your work so very much . sincerely hope you and gabby have the best Valentine’s Day and God bless your family …from your devoted fan in America
This is one reason I wanna visit London some day
Thanks for this, Tim - I went to Harry Potter World in November last year, for the Christmas themed experience, and it was lovely to see some of the changes they've made since then. It's an amazing place, in my opinion. Really impressed by the crafting, technology, art and love that goes into making the HP franchise so powerful. Looks like they're getting ready for the Easter holidays with that chocolate themed feast! :)
Sounds great!
Important question because you mentioned the Christmas theme: is the studio different during Christmas?? I’m going on the 27th of December
Yes but it's a lovely time to visit. @@PercyNotAble
Great Video Tim I really enjoyed watching it. Another one of my favourite places. Hope you enjoyed it
I did!
Thanks Tim this was great and enjoyable look forward to the next Yvonne 😊
My sister and I are traveling to London and we have to see this during our stay. Thank you for the video this will add a new dimension to our visit. Can hardly wait.
Brilliant tour Tim,thanks, looked amazing, see you Friday,love to you and all family,have a good evening,hope Caspers better very soon poor lamb, 🙏🙏💖x
thanks Hazel
Another brilliant vlog Tim. I’ve visited the tour before and you’ve uncovered things I didn’t even know about, so I’ll definitely be returning. Also worth pointing out, if you are in the city of Exeter, there are some interesting areas of the city where J.K Rowling took inspiration for the books when she was studying at university. Gandy Street is one great location with a Harry Potter themed bar and their branch of H. Samuel has a very familiar fireplace inside. Take a look at some of the relevance between Exeter and what are in the movies, it’s unreal. Also they do sometimes offer Harry Potter themed tours for adults.
It’s great to go around Christmas time, the great hall and other areas have an extra festive magic touch :)
Loved your Harry Potter video Tim,waiting for Friday to see your next video
I was there in May of last year for like the 6th time! It's really changed alot over the years and it gets better each time!
Hi Tim. I’m 64, but would love to visit the Harry Potter studio. It looks amazing. Definitely on my bucket list. Thank you for showing us around.
Any time!
It seems to have been added to since I visited in 2015, thanks to your video I am minded to go again.
I haven't seen many Harry Potter movies but when you mentioned York I was transported back there
I am def going to visit in 2024 when I holiday to uk, from Perth, Western Australia. Thank you Tim, never knew this existed 🙏🏼🦘🦘🦘
I went to the studios in 2017 and they were still building the forbidden forest and Gringottts wasn't there but none the less it was amazing! I can't wait to go back! I've seen the films so many times but seeing the actual sets and the different props you see so many hidden details you never noticed. I didn't like the butterbeer though. This is my favourite vlog of yours so far 😅
Thanks lucy
I went the same year! Really look forward to going back and seeing the new areas sometime soon.
My boys have both been there with school and my wife went as a parent helper! I’m jealous; I’d love to go so thank you for taking us around!
Loved this so much I decided to watch all the movies. I had only ever watched the first one. I’m currently on the 4th movie now. Thanks for visiting.
I've been there three times!! My favourite time was just before Christmas! It is beautiful!! X
I’ve visited the studios 4 times and it still makes me as emotional every time we go as its always changing. I usually give it a good few years between visits so it has chance to adapt and add bits on. I absolutely love harry potter!
so sad this makes you emotional, really hope you find some meaning to your life because emotional over this fantasy world is just so sad. Please think today about the million of starving people in this world now that's emotional
I visited Leavesdrn studios with my grandson last June-both if us are huge HP fans-and we loved it! It was worth every penny and every second
This is a great place to visit especially if your a fan of Harry Potter (which I am). I took my son there for his birthday but, that was around 10 years ago. They’ve added so much since I’ve been. Would like to go again now. Thanks for the video Tim. Gets a definite thumbs up from me 😊
Thanks Sarah
This place looks so cool! I can't wait to go over to London to see this!!! I'm a huge Harry Potter fan!
Brilliant video ! I’m going next month and I can’t wait
Hope you enjoy it!
I remember visiting this place over 10 years ago (2012). It has certainly changed to what you've just shown on here. I remember the outdoor area, the great hall, the castle display, the alley. But yeah, they didn't have Gringotts or the Forest at the time. Shows how much has changed.
But I remember that they had two photo sets. One was being in the Flying Car and the other on a broomstick, and there would be a green screen behind it so they could add a background to it. I remember seeing the screen for the broomstick and saw myself flying towards the camera to pose for a photo.
And of course, for treat, I brought and still have Sirius Black's wand. It just had a unique pattern on it. Glad I picked it.
I went around the same time and yea theres deffently alot of things that are new. i sorta remember after the outside bit there wasnt that much more to see apaprt from the modle of the castle and the porop room but now they have the bank and the vaults and i even think the forest is new.
I love this place so much, I really need to go back, they've added so much since my last visit and blimey you got around it quickly!
It’s easy to get through quickly, it only takes longer if you’re interested in all the information they have about each prop.
That said it’s probably a better experience to spend a full day at the place
Am loving recent concise videos.
Finally made ot to Harry Potter Studios yesterday, absolutely magical, we went in not knowing what to expect and there was so many highlights, the staff were so friendly as well. Well worth going to and definitely going back again.
Enjoyed this vlog, even more so when I saw myself & my hubby having afternoon tea in the background 😁
Love that!
I've never been into Harry Potter (only ever seen the 1st film!) But I have to say this looks pretty good, with a lot of detail. So if I'm in a situation where I HAVE to go, at least I know I'll probably enjoy it! Thanks, Tim - great mini tour!
Well you need to watch the 2nd film the 3rd 4th 5th 6th and 7th you don't know what your missing.
If you ever have a notion, the series matures a lot and gets much darker as the kids age. You really can't judge it at all on the first movie.
Read the books, and then watch the films.
That was fantastic. Thanks.
Been 4 times with school hope to bring my family in the future here
Never gets boring
WoW it's a wonderful tour thanks tim👍👍🙏🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so very much Tim for your video/walk around the Harry Potter studio tour it looks absolutely amazing!
My close friend 👩🏻🤝👨🏼 & I both really love all the Harry Potter films and we have said for years now that we want to go to this but watching your video I now really want to go but not when it’s packed full of people!
I would spend ages looking round I’m sure of that!
Thanks Jay
Thanks jay
I visited there like 7 yrs ago during uni induction... was an amazing experience, would love to see again seeing that they added more things in there (also must've missed loads too! Havent seen some of the stuff that I'm seeing!)
I've been three times. Once for Halloween and twice for Christmas. I'm going back in June. I love the studio tour and I can't wait to visit again
I’ve been there when I was in England - it’s amazing I highly recommend it! The house was not open when I went back in 2014/2015 so I’m happy to see the inside now.
Went there last week as as a late birthday present. Was amazing and would definitely go back. We went on a Wednesday so it wasn't massively crowded and we got plenty of time and space to do things at our pace.
I've been three times: first time, not long after it first opened; second time, when they'd added the Forbidden Forest; last time, for Hogwarts in the Snow (and amazing Gringott's!) I"ll definitely go back again- I'm hoping they'll add Knockturn Alley at some point, which will definitely prompt me to revisit.
This looks absolutely amazing I can’t wait to go in July-august time for my late birthday 👀😁😁😁
We went back in 2018 for my daughters birthday and she had the butter beer .It was a great experience walking around. I know more has been added since we went.
100% worth it! Went there in 2016 and I’m from Australia it was awesome! So lucky
This is amazing! I have never seen a tour of the Harry Potter Studio and it looks stunning! The details are crazy, looks just fun to go to, and being a Harry Potter fan this would make my dreams come true!
Also by the way what kind of camera where u using? It looks really good! Great vid by the way! :D
Glad you liked it!!
WOWO Some amazing reasons to visit London Definitely thumbs up for you😄😃
Thanks for liking
the last time I went was in 2018 and there were so many renovations and additions, of course, I'm gonna go back. also at 3:34, those are actually the taps for the bubble bath liquid dispensary in the prefect's bathroom.
Really enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing.
The Harry Potter experience looks great, although possibly not for me? But certainly remember my excitement when wandering around 44b Baker Street!
If you are into set pieces and general exploration about how they made Hogwarts and the wider wizarding world looked I really recommend it, genuine impressive stuff going on there. For the more 'casual' (I say that in a non offensive way) this may not be for you, while for the die hard Harry Potter being able to claim you been here might be just what you are looking for. For those interested in the more details aspect of film making while I say this isnt a big one to tick off the list, if you find yourself needing to do something it can be a pretty fun day. Sure if that doesn't interest you that's fine this isnt for everyone, but if it does i'd say go for it.
Very awesome video. I live near Orlando and have been to the Wizarding world of Harry Potter Universal Studios. It’s a great experience!
I went about 8 or 9 years ago and its changed soo much since i went. think i might have to revisit it some day.
We’ve been but in 2019. It was amazing and there’s SO much to see. Walking into gringots was actually breathtaking. My son is desperate to go back again.. there’s newer stuff since we last went.
This was the best experience i had visiting london! ofc i like the history, but this was quite literally magical.
Hello Tim,this looks amazing,pars of Harry Potter films and see things the costumes s brilliant.
Great video i went there a few years ago and it was fantastic.
My first visit to the Harry Potter Studio Tour was back in 2015 when the iconic steam engine🚂 Hogwarts Express official opened and it was so amazing to see everything from the movies and I hope 🤞 to visit again sometime soon thanks for sharing this 👍❤️
I was there 2019 September, love it.
I've never been into Harry Potter and always likened it to 'The Worst Witch', of which my kids seemed to love. However, the tour looks breathtaking indeed. Cheers, Tim! 👍
I loved that show
"Anything can happen on Halloween......... " 🎶🎶.
I LOVE the W.W (original 1986 movie)
I’ve been there before. It is absolutely worth the money and it is so beautiful to get a look at the sets and outfits close up! ⚡️
I went here for my 51st birthday in September and loved it!!!!!
Harry Potter is the most amazing movie series ever in love with it ❤ this is a must visit!🎉
Cool tour thanks tim,👍👋
Glad you enjoyed it
I went in 2015 and I loved it! Need to go back
My son use to be crazy on harry potter Lego at age five But we never saw this what your showing, How marvellous
That looks SUPER fun! I wanna go there!
Loved this vlogg. Im really glad those spiders didnt jump out at you. I hate them too.
I've stopped watching after 2 and half mins as don't want to spoil the surprise in person. My boys would love this! ❤ great inspiration for creativity
I would also add that they are very accommodating if you have any specific needs. My son is very mildly autistic, nothing major. But certain things are not good for him which he can point out for himself at age 11. I contacted Harry Potter tour to ask a few questions regards the visit and they were superb and there was nothing they would no do to help.
They also have a small sensory room for when things get too overwhelming, not really set up for older children/teens/adults though
That was really nice. I'm in Orlando and go to Universal several times a year. It's a different experience. You should come see
Wow! Thank you for this content. Hoping to visit the studio with my family. Can I ask what time of the year you went? Much thanks
It’s definitely worth it. I spent 6 hrs there and I want to go back as it changes all the time
wow 6hrs!
I went about a year ago with a fellow fan and loved it.
I got chills when I saw the acromantulas
Good timing! We're booked to go next week! Not sure to watch it now in case there are spoilers!
Of course not 😅
@@WalkWithMeTim my son has just recently got into Harry Potter and got the film box set at Christmas (we're currently on film 6 of 8). My kids have no idea they are going! We're also booked in for Bletchley Park whilst we're in the area.
Always wanted to go here tim, will be visiting soon
you should! its great
I can’t wait to watch this video! I love the Harry Potter studios ❤
It's so good!
WB Studio
Thankx 💐👌🏻💕💀👩🏻⚕️it was a great virtual tour .. 👌🏻👌🏻💐💐💐
I’ve visited here twice. I can safely say on each occasion I was there a lot longer than 3 hours. First time we got there at 9am for a 9.15am tour, we left at 6pm to drive back to Edinburgh. Second time I went for Hogwarts in the snow. Got there for a 9.30 tour and left at 6.30pm. Can’t wait to go back.
There’s no actual time limit, they simply let you know it can take up to three hours if your taking your time.
Like Tim I went through it all in an hour though understandably it’s a very rushed experience so I can understand many people want to get value for money and spend most the day at the studio though I had booked tickets for The Cursed Child the same day so didn’t want to spend too much time at this since I’d been before, I just wanted to check out all the new bits that have been added since the last time I went (I did the audio tour that time too).
I highly recommend The Cursed Child if you’ve not seen it yet, it’s absolutely stunning.
I went years ago. Absolutely amazing. Perfect 4 all Harry Potter fans.
and non .. I enjoyed It and not a massive fan lol
Yes it is it’s always worth to see it’s the best place ever and I really love it
Brilliant Tim you are such a professional keep up the good work plus your loving wife xx
Thanks so much
It looks quite differnt to when I went 8 years ago. It was fun then and looks even better now!
It's £160 for a family of 4 (without any addons). That's really expensive for a few hours entertainment. For comparison, Legoland is £92 for a full day.
Wow & thanks Tim 🤗
Wow! I’ve never even knew this existed! Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻❤️
It was a very good travel blog today when you visited the Harry Potter studio tour, of London tim
Next time you go, dress up. When I did that one of the employees videoed the inside of Weasly's Wizard Wheezes! It was so cool! 🤩
Absolutely love harry potter and can't wait to finally take my family there 😁
I love this place so much!
I’ve decided that when I go to the UK someday, I’ll visit there!
Going in March, I can't wait 😍
Excellent......as usual Tim.
Glad you enjoyed it
