If you would consider yourself a devoted Harry Potter fan, that can memorise all the story lines, characters and spells then this is perfect for you. If you want to really feel submerged into the magical and mystical world, then check out these destinations to really bring the books to life and experience with the characters your favourite literature and movie memories.
Harry Potter Studios
This is a slightly obvious pick but an absolutely incredible one at that. The fairly new Harry Potter studios, based on the out skirts of London takes you on a tour through the real sets used in the making of the amazing film series and even brings to you a giant, highly detailed Hogwarts.
From the Great Hall to Umbridges office and having a chance to ride a broomstick in the green screen area this place feels magical. Once more, you can buy your very own uniform or wands at the end of the journey.
Platform 9 ¾
Visit the station where Harry and friends wheel all their school luggage through a seemingly brick wall to appear catch their train to Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry.
If you’re brave enough you could even try and see if you can make it through the wall… try not to break anything though!
Harry Potter Hotel
Based in London, there is a seemingly normal B&B with 3 very special rooms. Behind a secret curtain lay 3 magical rooms, all designed and inspired by the old fashion, slightly worn but magical feel Harry Potter effortlessly captures. With the house colours and the theme tune in the background this will feel like you are spending the night in Hogwarts. With over a three month waiting list for a single night’s stay in this room, it is clear that the ultimate Harry Potter sleepover is in high demand.
Disney World
Visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando for the ultimate magical experience. There are rides, attractions, food and shops all things Harry Potter! You really will feel you have jumped into one the books and will soon be face to face with a mystical creature with every corner you turn.

With the capital being the bustley place that a lot of the films featuring, it would be a cool place to go and visit to feel as though you are walking the same steps as the cast of Harry Potter once did.
Classic Steam Train
Why not seek out where in near you hold’s classic and steam trains, you’d be surprised at just how many places over the UK have them to take a ride into the past and imagine your journey to the wizarding land that Harry Potter is set in, watch out for those dementures though.
Owl Sanctuary
