Platform 9¾ at King's Cross, a day at the Warner Bros. Harry Potter studios and London's filming locations: the final-year trip for fans of the saga.
This trip plunges pupils into the world of Harry Potter, in the heart of London. They pose at Platform 9¾ at King's Cross, spend half a day at the Warner Bros. studios in Leavesden, among the Great Hall, Diagon Alley and the Hogwarts Express, then set off to the city's filming locations, from Leadenhall Market to the Millennium Bridge, not forgetting Westminster. The departure date and time are set with your school in the quote. The journey is made during the day, with a 30-minute break every 3 hours of driving, and the coach stays with the group on site.

Good to know
- A valid passport is compulsory for every pupil and member of staff (an identity card is not enough to enter the United Kingdom), along with an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) applied for online before departure; signed parental consent form for each pupil under 18 and European Health Insurance Card (EHIC). Pupils of other nationalities should check their own entry requirements.
- Our drivers drive for a maximum of 3 hours, then take a 30-minute break, day and night.
- Supervision is provided by the accompanying teachers; each pupil signs a code of conduct based on the school rules (no alcohol for minors or on the coach, no drug use, punctuality and compliance with instructions during free time, care when crossing the road, as traffic drives on the left in the UK: look right first).
- The pupil list and rooming list are entered in the school's online area (Excel import possible); rooms are allocated according to your instructions.
- Recommended period: October to June; group tickets for the Harry Potter studios sell out very quickly and are booked as soon as the trip is confirmed, several months in advance. Apply for passports and ETAs at least two months before departure. The United Kingdom uses the pound sterling (cards are accepted almost everywhere), sockets are type G (adapter needed) and the time is one hour behind Belgium; many major national museums are free. Lunches are not included: allow a budget of around £10–15 per pupil per day; on request, the hotel can provide packed lunches.
