Here’s something for Harry Potter fans to add to their bucket lists: In Spring 2012, the iconic movie sets that brought the Harry Potter books to life will be turned into a three-hour walking tour. Sounds like three hours of pure magic if you ask me! Visitors will get the chance to explore places like The Great Hall, Dumbledor’s Office and many of the other iconic locations that weren’t entirely CGI (like real magic, that just wouldn’t be possible).
Similar to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction in Orlando, the Harry Potter set tour is another chance for Muggles to vicariously live out their dreams of going to Hogwarts. Potter fans should get their advance tickets when they go on sale later this year, because I can almost guarantee this attraction is going to be huge like Hagrid the giant. If only Dumbledore were alive to see this!
