If you're sure you want to include this attraction in your itinerary, it's best to book your tickets online as soon as possible to secure your spot at a specific time, as capacity is limited. Every day, Harry Potter Studios welcomes thousands of visitors from all over the world, making it one of London's most popular tourist attractions. This means that tickets sell out like magic!

That said, there are several ways to get your tickets to discover Harry Potter Studios: either through a package that includes tickets and transportation to Harry Potter Studios, or you can go on your own.

There are packages that include both admission to Warner Bros. Studios and round-trip bus transportation to the attraction. This is a fantastic option to consider if you are traveling to London with your family, as tickets purchased at the box office do not include transportation to Harry Potter Studios, and the attraction is located far from central London (approximately one hour away).

Advantages of booking the ticket package with transportation

  • Forget about finding transportation: in a city like London, transportation can be expensive and complicated, but with this package you won't have to worry about routes or connections.
  • No stress about schedules: avoid having to keep an eye on different modes of public transportation and possible delays between transfers.
  • Ideal for families: if you're traveling with young children, this bus transfer saves you the stress of rushing around.
  • Total convenience: the bus takes you directly to the studios from a central area of London and, at the end of the day, drops you off at the same spot. It couldn't be easier!

Choose your transfer departure point

But London is very big, so you can choose from several options in the Harry Potter Park ticket package with transfer. Here are the options, and you can choose the one that suits you best:

Unfortunately, tickets to Harry Potter Studios are not included in London tourist cards (neither the London Pass nor the London Explorer Pass). However, these passes do include tours of Harry Potter and other movie locations (Bridget Jones, James Bond, Sherlock Holmes, Mary Poppins, etc.) through the streets of London, as well as access to many tourist attractions in the city.

If you're a big fan of the young wizard's adventures and you're left wanting more after visiting Harry Potter Studios, I recommend booking a Harry Potter tour in London, as they're a great way to continue enjoying your favorite saga while exploring the British capital and learning cool facts about the movies from an expert guide.

You can see the entire Harry Potter Studios Park in approximately 3 hours.

However, if you are a big fan of J.K. Rowling's novels, you will probably want to spend more time there and extend your visit to 4 or 5 hours, exploring every inch of the tour and taking in all the details of the Harry Potter universe. There is so much to see here!

Is it advisable to take children to Harry Potter Studios?

Without a doubt. If you're traveling to London with children, a visit to Harry Potter Studios will be one of the coolest experiences you can have together during your vacation. Especially if the little ones are fans of the saga! Here are a few reasons why:

  • They'll have a great time exploring the movie sets (the Great Hall, the school corridors, the Gryffindor common room, the teachers' offices, the Dursleys' and Weasleys' houses, etc.).
  • You don't have to go to Harry Potter Studios dressed as muggles; to immerse yourself even more in this magical atmosphere, you can dress up as your favorite character.
  • You'll also be able to see original objects from the films and learn how the novels were brought to the big screen.

However, there are areas such as Lucius Malfoy's house and the Forbidden Forest that, due to their realistic and gloomy appearance, may frighten some children, especially if they are very young. Just keep this in mind if you want to avoid these rooms during your tour of Harry Potter Studios.

On the other hand, if you are visiting with your family, I recommend that you try not to choose the last admission time to Harry Potter Studios, as you would return to London very late and the experience could be exhausting for the children.

Organized tours to Harry Potter Studios usually include round-trip bus transportation to the attraction, as it is quite far from central London. These tours usually depart from King's Cross or Victoria Station and the bus goes directly to Warner Bros.

However, if you decide to go to Harry Potter Studios on your own, you will need to be patient and take several different modes of transportation, combining the subway, train, and bus both ways.
