Very exciting and not boring tour! The guide, unfortunately I forgot his name, was great. A real Harry Potter fan. When you break the tour down it's a small tour of the city, albeit in more of the places you wouldn't otherwise see. The common thread on the subject of Harry Potter is taken up at every stop and with a number of Harry Potter questions and search tasks, it won't be that boring for children either ;-) A clear recommendation for a slightly different tour for magicians young and young at heart :-)

Something different, but very great. The guide Julian was really great. Knowledge about the spots in Hamburg, historical and always in connection with Harry! And also with a little quiz in between. So I'm more than satisfied and more than excited. So if you just want to see a little something and don't always do the "usual" tours, this is simply recommended.

A wonderful tour! Entertaining, exciting and interesting. With information that you haven't heard a thousand times before and a tour guide that you just had to love. So warm and passionate, always trying to involve everyone in the group. It could have been 2 hours longer - my daughter and I loved it! Highly Recommended!

That was a very funny and interesting guided tour through the core of Hamburg. especially to the not always obvious points and places. In addition, interesting and often funny information and anecdotes about Hamburg. Coupled with Harry Potter parallels. Many thanks for the entertaining two hours to Julian (not Kevin ;-))

Bela offered us a varied, informative tour for young and old through the magical parts of Hamburg, including time travel. This was fun for the kids like me as a dad. The tour as well as Bela as a guide are unreservedly recommended by us at any time!
