What to expect

If you love Harry Potter and want to indulge in the amazing whisky that Scotland is so famous for, then this is the combo tour for you. Set off on a magical tour of Edinburgh with our fun Potter-head guide to see the places that inspired JK Rowling, then learn about and taste incredible whisky with a local expert.

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 that provided lots of inspiration for JK Rowling's creations. We continue through the atmospheric Old Town, stopping at Greyfriars Kirkyard which inspired Tom Riddle's Grave, and passing by the Elephant Café where JK Rowling sat for many hours dreaming up the world of Harry Potter.

You get amazing views of Edinburgh Castle on our way to Victoria Street – said to be the inspiration for Diagon Alley – and we finish near Edinburgh City Chambers where you learn about JK Rowling's impact on the city. After the tour, you enjoy some free time before heading to an underground cellar where a true whisky expert guides you through the history and hilarious stories of Scotch Whisky. You will try multiple drams from different regions, from the highlands to the lowlands – a perfect way to kick off your evening!
