If you are the big fun for Harry Potter, you should be come the Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter in Tokyo. Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo opened on 16th June 2023 on the former Toshimaen site and provides fans the ultimate opportunity to journey behind-the-scenes of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films to learn about the remarkable world of film production.

Exclusive to Tokyo, fans are invited to step into the full-size London Ministry of Magic set for the first time ever.
To commute to the Ministry of Magic, staff would travel in via telephone, lavatory, or the Floo Network using one of the enormous fireplaces, each standing at over three metres tall. Visitors to the Studio Tour are invited to step into one of these fireplaces, just like a Ministry of Magic employee, and pose for photos and videos as smoke and lighting effects mimic the magical effect of Floo powder all around them.
Hidden from Muggles at King’s Cross Station in London, Platform 9 ¾ was one of Harry’s first experiences of the Wizarding World. During production, many of the scenes were shot on location at the busy train station in the centre of London. However, a section of the platform was created on-set for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 and any scenes inside the train were shot on a special interior carriage set complete with green screen windows. Fans are invited to step onto Platform 9 ¾ and board the Hogwarts Express.
From a simple rig for Harry’s first flying lesson to the complicated visual effects of a Quidditch World Cup match, the art of broomstick flying evolved throughout the film series. To choreograph a busy Quidditch scene, every move was carefully plotted in a storyboard followed by weeks of the actors filming on broomstick rigs in front of a blue or green screen that was later replaced by the background of the Quidditch stadium.

“Shinjuku tour”
Outstanding experience of navigating vibrant regions to find small special yakitori restaurants and fascinating bars that would be difficult to find without a terrific guide like Min.
“Ueno and Harajuku”
This was our second tour with Min. All of us were excited to see her again especially my daughters! Min guided us through the shrines of Ueno area, paddle boating on the lake, and the street markets.When we didn’t find food my teenage daughters were wanting to eat, she took us to Harajuku. She suggested a food hall perfect for teenagers. We then went through Harajuku stopping at various shops throughout district. She is very personable to the extent that my daughters talked to her throughout our time with her.

“Excellent fun guide ”
Our tour with Min to Studio Ghibli Museum was great. She purchased our tickets ahead of time like we requested. She met us at our hotel and took us by rail to the museum. Once there, she guided us through the museum. Afterwards, my daughters were asking her about going to a capybara cafe and she immediately found one nearby and took us. She then guided us back to our hotel. We can’t wait for the next tour with her we have in a few days.
