Private Tours Button

A more personalised experience at a time to suit you.

Our Private Tour content is the same as our Free Public Tours but you will get a unique chance to speak one-on-one with our guides to make sure all of your burning Potter questions are answered!

We have lots of experience in catering for groups of all types. We receive a lot of hen party, school group and children's birthday party bookings. Our guides are skilled at matching the tour content to the audience and we have plenty to keep younger members entertained!

 

We recommend a minimum age of 7 for children to get something out of the tour; although we can accommodate younger children as party members on private tours we really do caution that much of the content isn't accessible to very young children.

Unlike our free tours these tours are priced per person with a price per head that varies depending on your group size. Click BOOK NOW below to see pricing and what dates/times are available. Please note that the price refers to your entire group of the appropriate size - please only add one ticket.

We ask you to bring something you can use as a wand. This can be anything roughly wand-shaped - pens, pencils and umbrellas all welcome!

Our tours start at Bobby's Sandwich Shop near the junction of George IV Bridge and Candlemaker Row, and end on Victoria Street.

The tour will last between 75 and 90 minutes depending on how busy the city is.

Our cancellation policy:

With all of our private tours you'll get a full refund up to 48 hours before the tour and a 50% refund up to 24 hours before. Just email our Head Wizard Sam on contact@pottertrail.com and he'll be happy to sort this for you!

A note for bookings in November, December or January:

It will be dark in Edinburgh from around 4pm during these months. We are still happy to run Private Tours at this time during these months but please note that the graveyard where we start the tour has no lighting. We've run plenty of tours like this in the past - your guide will bring a torch! - but our tours are certainly more enjoyable in the light.
