When we were there, they had a Sweets and Treats feature so there were places along the tour where you could learn how the prop food is made to look so realistic and the Great Hall was kitted out with a selection of puddings that looked good enough to eat.
There was a section showing lots of different costumes which really interested me. I especially liked looking at all the pretty dresses and my sister was pointing out ones she would like to wear for prom in the future.
I really liked the look of this potion bit with all the bottles of different sizes. I think I would definitely be a professor of potions if I could.
Another new feature they had there was the Hogwart’s Express. We were able to go inside and each little compartment was set up as it was for each year in the films.
I was very excited to get a butterbeer – they also had butterbeer flavour icecream – and it was really nice. I liked how it was kinda fizzy but creamy on top. However, it was a bit rich so more than one definitely wouldn’t have been an option.
We then headed into Diagon Alley which was so cool. Unfortunately, it was quite busy so I wasn’t able to get many good pictures but it was a really great thing to experience and I felt like I was little Harry in the first film wandering along looking at everything in awe.
The final part of the tour brought us to this huge model of Hogwarts which was lit from inside so had lots of little twinkling lights shining out from it. It was really beautiful and the perfect finish to the tour.
