Want to experience the magic of the Wizarding World on your next trip to Japan? Travel and experiences platform Klook has just launched tickets for pre-booking to Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter on its platform.
In case you’re a Potterhead planning to visit Japan soon and have already been to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Osaka, you can add this hassle-free tour to your Tokyo bucket list.
As a huge fan of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter novels and the blockbuster film series based on the books, visiting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is a dream come true.

Everything is recreated in meticulous detail and can be quite overwhelming to take in but here are the highlights that Potterheads can look forward to.

Since Eli started going to school this year, this topsy turvy stack of Hogwarts spell books represent Harry’s first year at Hogwarts. Kudos to Chef JB Cada and Stephanie Santos for the wonderful treats!
It was with a heavy heart that I read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and last novel in the Harry Potter series by J. K Rowling back in 2007. You know the feeling of not wanting a certain experience to end, but at the same time wanting to know that the characters you’ve invested so much in, get their happy ending.
