Today was one of the best day of my entire trip. It started off a little rougher than what I expected. I was up a bit of the night with a sick stomach. I woke up at 6am to leave for my day trip to go to Warner Brothers Studio to see the Harry Potter Exhibit in London. I still had one more day left in London and because I wasn't feeling to well I thought I'd see if I can move it. Tip: Some day trips you cant change and you wont get your deposit back. If you book one in... your going have to do it if you wanted to or not. Because I couldn't move the day trip I had to suck it up and go any ways. Best thing I could of done.
I ended up catching a taxi to to the Golden Tour head office where the buses depart from. Tip: If you do go on this tour make sure you get here early. There are a couple buses that go on this tour.
Taxi in London
It took us about 1 hour to get there. The drive was so beautiful. I was on the 7am tour. We got there early and the doors were not open.
Tour Bus- Harry Potter
They made us wait about 45mins out in the cold.
Warner Brothers Studio- Harry Potter Exhibit
And it wasn't just cold. It freezing... Tip: If you are going on an early tour... make sure you rug up. Because there is a high chance you will have to wait out in the freezing cold. They let us in around 8:30am-9ish.
Inside Warner Brothers Studios
The tour was amazing. There is two small bits of the tour that is guided and the rest of the tour is self guided. I dont want to tell you to much of the tour because I do not want to spoil it. But if you are a Harry Potter fan or even if you arent this tour is for everyone. Its informative and fun. You get to see the diagon alley, a replica of hog warts and lots more.
The Great Hall- Harry Potter
They have props, sets, the great hall set and you can ride on a broomstick. They have a great gift stall. You can buy souvenirs, wands, capes ect
Chocolate Wands from Warner Brothers Studios
It took me roughly 1-1.5 hours to go around the tour. The Golden Tour allow 3hours to do this tour before the bus departs. I ended up having some lunch at the cafe. They have a great selection of food and gluten free products. A taxi pulled up at the front and I thought I would see how much it cost to get a ride back to my hotel. I spoke to the taxi driver and he cut me a deal because he needed to head back that way. I started talking to this lovely taxi driver and he offered advice for me to do on my last day. We were heading back into city and we started to head towards Abby Road where the road that the Beatles made famous. It was so lovely. He goes to me, I never do this but would you like me to stop and I will take a photo of you on Abby Road. It was so cool.
Abby Road- London
He ended up dropping me at Madame Tussauds. It was raining and I had to wait outside for 1.5 hours and I brought my ticket before I arrived. Tip: If you go... go early. Bet the crowds. When I finally go in I was really overwhelmed with the amount of people in there. It was soooooo packed.
Check out Hhw many people were in Madame Tussaud
It was so packed I could hardly move around or take pictures. It was really impressive and its worth a look but get there early. The wax statues look so real, they even have a train ride half way through. They also sell food in the venue. I ended up having chocolate covered strawberries half way through. YUM

When you take risks while travelling this is when you usually surprise your self and enjoy your self more than you thought you would of.
