What do I need to start the game?

A smartphone with the game app pre-downloaded, active location services, internet connectivity, and full battery (bring a charger). Instructions and the app link are sent via email after booking.

Can I pause and resume the quest, or do I need to complete it in one go?

Yes, you can start, pause, and resume whenever you like. The 3-hour duration is flexible—you control your pace and can spread the game across multiple days if preferred.

Will I actually visit real Harry Potter filming locations?

Yes. The game guides you to authentic filming spots used in the Harry Potter films, such as Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery, plus Cecil Court—the London alley that inspired J.K. Rowling's Diagon Alley.

Is this suitable for young children, or is it aimed at older fans?

The puzzle difficulty and narrative (battling a sorcerer) suit teenagers and adults best. Younger children (under 10) may find clues challenging without adult assistance, though family groups can play together.

Do I need any prior knowledge of Harry Potter to enjoy the game?

Familiarity with the films or books enhances the experience, but the game stands alone as a London walking tour with literary and cultural stops—ideal for casual fans and newcomers alike.

Is the route wheelchair-accessible?

Central London areas like Trafalgar Square and Covent Garden are largely accessible, but routes involve uneven pavements typical of historic central London. Check with the supplier after booking for detailed accessibility details if needed.

our guide Fatima was brilliant and the cathedral square at golden hour was the highlight, and mid-week so it was quiet.

our guide Raj was nice enough, but the old market the guide took us through felt a bit rushed honestly, and would only really suit you if youre not fussy, a tidy 3 hour loop.
