From riding the Hogwarts Express to sipping on a frothy Butterbeer, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is a must-visit destination for fans of all ages.

Diagon Alley: A Magical Marketplace
As you enter Diagon Alley, you are immediately transported into a world of wonder. The cobblestone streets are lined with shops straight out of the books and movies. Head to Ollivanders Wand Shop, where the wand chooses the wizard. Witness the magic as a wand selects its owner, and be sure to pick up your own interactive wand to cast spells throughout the wizarding world.
Don't forget to visit Gringotts Bank and take a thrilling ride on Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts. Look out for the fire-breathing dragon atop the bank—it’s a sight you won't want to miss! Wander through the eclectic shops, try a Butterbeer ice cream at Florean Fortescue’s Ice-Cream Parlour, and immerse yourself in the rich details of this magical marketplace.

Hogsmeade: A Charming Village
Board the Hogwarts Express at King’s Cross Station and travel to Hogsmeade, where more adventures await. The ride itself is an experience, with scenic views and surprises along the way. Once you arrive, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped right into the pages of J.K. Rowling’s beloved series.
In Hogsmeade, explore the iconic shops and try the delicious fare at the Three Broomsticks. Don’t miss the chance to ride Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, a thrilling journey through the Forbidden Forest. Use your interactive wand to cast spells and bring the magic to life at various points throughout the village.
Magical Experiences
One of the highlights of the Wizarding World is the chance to make magic yourself. With an interactive wand from Ollivanders, you can cast spells at designated locations in both Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade.
