During this 2h private tour in French, you will follow her footsteps and discover more of the "behind the scenes" of magic. You will learn anecdotes about both Harry Potter and the life of its author while discovering all the hidden spots of Edinburgh - which are strikingly similar to the world described by JK Rowling.​..
