Edinburgh: Harry Potter Origins Tour & Gin Tasting Combo｜United Kingdom

If you love Harry Potter and want to indulge in the amazing gin 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, followed by an expert-led gin-tasting experience at a cool underground bar!

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 which 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!

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’ll learn about JK Rowling’s impact on the city.

After the tour, enjoy some free time before heading to an underground cellar where your gin expert will take you deep underground to the forgotten streets of Edinburgh for the most atmospheric gin experience you will ever have.
