Go behind the scenes of the Harry Potter films on an incredible visit to the Harry Potter Studio in London. In addition to the beautiful scenery, some secrets are also revealed, including special effects and animatronics, which tell the story of the young wizard and his class.

What makes the visit really special is that everything shown has actually been used in the Harry Potter films. All sets, props and costumes are authentic and show us the details and complexity of the task of bringing to life the story created by J.K. Rowling. All the films in the series were actually shot in these studios, it’s not an amusement park.
