Day Five: The Unexpected But Quite Incredible Treat Other than the WB Studio Tour, there’s another Must-Do Potter-related activity in London at the moment, IF you can get tickets. I’m talking, of course, about the record-breaking, award-winning theatre event that is The Cursed Child, running since 2017 at the Apollo Theatre. I tried to get...
Day Four: Warner Bros Harry Potter Studio Tour If I could bottle the excitement engendered by our imminent visit to the Harry Potter Studio Tour on our fourth day in the UK, I could power a small city for a week. I don’t think Uchenna slept a wink the night before, but that didn’t seem...
Day Three: Primark As stated above, London (and the rest of England), is awash with Harry Potter Merchandise. Every tee-shirt seller, umbrella-maker and purveyor of novelty coffee mugs in the city has jumped on the Hogwarts Express, and there are a thousand different HP-related ways to part tourists from their money in the Capitol.

The first of these was Kings Cross itself. And, if you’re a witch of wizard looking for magic, this is exactly where you need to start! Gazing up at...

Written by Jennifer Morris, owner of Travel Savvy Review Time! For our recent UK adventure, I specifically booked the British Airways direct flight form Durban to London and back to see what this route is like, and how the offering on BA stacked up. So, here’s the first-hand account! First, the positives: It’s a direct...
Raw, honest travel blog. I spent one week in New York, in September 2017. September is a very humid time to go to New York. The air was sticky and heavy. My hair went wild from the humidity, ruining any possible good photo opportunities. In Times Square I could feel the weight of smog in...
Raw, honest travel blog. Not everything went to plan, but Travel Savvy certainly made one. Before I get into the story of my experience, I feel I must mention that I had not used Travel Savvy until my trip home (thank you father for bringing Jen into my life!). After my experience with Travel Savvy...
