Wizard Top Sights Tour with Holyrood Palace

WHAT WE WILL SEE & WHERE WE WILL BE

Set off on a magical tour of Edinburgh with our fun Potter-head guide, and see the places that inspired JK Rowling to create her wizarding universe. Then, enter the prestigious Palace of Holyrood house to see a slice of Royal life in Scotland!

Starting at Tron Kirk on The Royal Mile, we first head to historic Waverley Station. Then head to Edinburgh University Old College - a famous old campus which provided lots of inspiration for JK Rowling’s creations.

We continue through the atmospheric Old Town, stopping at Greyfriars Kirkyard which is home to Tom Riddle's Grave and passing by the Elephant Café where JK Rowling sat for many hours dreaming up her wizarding world! 

Get amazing views of Edinburgh Castle on our way to Victoria Street - said to be the inspiration for a very famous wizarding alley - and we finish near Edinburgh City Chambers where you’ll learn about JK Rowling’s impact on the city.

After the tour, you'll be given your tickets for the Palace of Holyrood, the formal house of the British Monarch in Scotland and a fascinating historical site!
