If you choose to visit Harry Potter Studios Park on your own you will need to get there by public transport and for this you will need to combine at least one tube, one train and one bus both to and from the tourist attraction.

Let's see the route you need to take to find out how to get to Harry Potter Studios Park by public transport!

1. Underground to London Euston

The first thing you will need to do is take the tube to London Euston train station (Euston Road, London NW1 2BF England). The London Underground lines that will take you there are the Northern and Victoria lines, the latter being the fastest of the London Underground network so you won't be waiting long.

2. The train to Watford Junction

Once at London Euston train station you will need to take a train to Watford Junction station (Station Road, Watford, WD17 1EU, Hertfordshire), the closest station to the Warner Bros studios in Leavesden (Hertfordshire).

Ask the station staff and make sure you get on one of the direct trains to Watford Junction, as they are very fast and the journey only takes about 20 minutes. The frequency of the trains is high as they run every 10 minutes or so, but don't be overconfident and try to arrive at Watford Junction about 45 minutes before the reservation time on your ticket.

There are also other trains from London Euston which are not direct but usually take about 1 hour to get there. With the other trains available to travellers, it is not worth taking one of these.

To travel between London Euston and Watford Junction train stations you can use an Oyster Card, as they are valid for the journey.

3. By shuttle bus to Harry Potter Studios

Finally, when you arrive at Watford Junction, you will need to take a shuttle bus from Mullany's Coaches which will take you to the gate of Harry Potter Studios Park in approximately 15 minutes.

It will be very easy to identify the bus you need to get on as it is decorated with the Harry Potter universe theme. To use this bus, please remember to show your Warner Bros. Studios ticket.

The frequency of these buses to Harry Potter Studios Park is 30 minutes but the timetable varies depending on the day of the week the attraction is open.

• Weekends: from 8:15 AM when the first tour of the attraction starts at 9 AM.

Shuttle bus tickets cost around £3 per person (return) and are purchased directly on the bus with contactless or cash but you cannot use an Oyster Card.
