Fans of Harry Potter can book an actual themed holiday or vacation. In this article I am going to discuss the various Harry Potter themed holidays or tours available and how you can book.

If you want a completely themed holiday you are best booking up with "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" which is based at Universal's Islands of Adventure theme park in Orlando, America. You can book a 4 day vacation which can be booked on the Universal Orlando website or many other sites. Some of the packages include early park admission, breakfast at the Three Broomsticks, hotel accommodation, a 3 day ticket to both of the Universal Theme parks and access ot the live enterainment at Universal CityWalk. Prices per adult are around $315 or $919 for a family of 4. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at the Universal Orlando Resort is a must for fans of all ages. It is relatively new as it only opened in June of 2010. It is worth comparing prices with tour operators to find the best deal. Some of the companies offering this themed holiday in Orlando include Virgin Holidays and The Co-operative Travel Company.


Those planning on visiting England for a vacation can find lots of themed tours for all things Harry Potter related. There are walking tours, studio tours all dedicated to the makings of the Harry Potter films. You can book a two day tour which takes in Gloucester, Lacock, London and Oxford.

You also get to visit over 12 locations including the entrance to the Leaky Cauldron, Ministry of Magic and not forgetting the famous Platform 9 ¾ which is a great photo opportunity. The second day of the tour will take you to the most famous university in the world in Oxford. You will get to see the grand stair case to Hogwarts dining room and where Ron learned how to dance for the Yule.
