Highlights & Hidden Gems of a Harry Potter Tour
Overview
Alohomora! Open the doors of this magical experience for the whole family. Explore the city of Porto through its charming spots that helped inspire the creation of the magical world of Harry Potter. Discover the story behind J.K Rowling and her time at Port and reveal secret stories with the help of a friendly local. Remember, you have to say: “I solemnly swear that I’m up to no good” for the secrets to be revealed!
Time for your Hogwarts adventure! Visit the Sao Bento station, admire its beautiful tiles and find the magical platform 9¾, don’t be late or the wall will bounce you back to the muggle’s world! Go straight to the source of inspiration, the place where J.K Rowling wrote down on a napkin the beginning of the famous sorcerer's boy, a café on an incredible Art Deco building.
A true wizard should dress like one! Visit a shop that sells the university uniforms that inspired the student uniform at Hogwarts and you’ll immediately see the resemblance.
