Tips for Wizarding World

[Sorcerer Jody]

So we're just a week away from my son's 10th birthday surprise trip to the Wizarding World! Any last minute tips on what not to miss? Little things that most people wouldn't know about? We'll have plenty of time to explore every little detail- 2 whole days. Thank you!!!

I am not sure about things that others don't know about, but I wanted to suggest that you try all 3 different kinds of butterbeer as they are all different. The hot butterbeer is by far the best in my opinion.

You can get a picture of your family "on the train." We almost missed that.

In one of the gift shops, there is a book that reacts every few minutes.

Bring lots of money. The treats and the souvenirs are very expensive. If you plan to buy bottles of water, buy them before you go into the Harry Potter part. They only sell Gilly Water, which is priced about 3 times what it should be priced at.

Totally agree about trying all the butterbeer. They also have butterbeer ice cream and fudge, but the hot butterbeer is the best by far! Definitely check out the monster book in Dervish & Bangs, Madame Malkin's talking mirror at the robe shop, the owl post if you want Hogsmeade postmarked mail, and Moaning Myrtle in the bathrooms.

Thank you both for your ideas! We are so excited!!!
