Harry Potter: Visions of Magic Tickets with 10 SGD F&B/Retail Voucher

I was very excited for this experience, as I'm a huge Potterhead. Walking in, the ticket checker was rude, and there was a massive line to start the experience (we arrived at around 1 PM, so that was expected). While the first experience was interesting at the Knight Bus, the following ones (grimmauld place, ministries of magic) were lackluster to say the least. The tour does state it is "inspired by" Harry Potter, but this fell very short. The Department of Mysteries was fun, and Chamber of Secrets were the clear highlight and very true to the books and movies. The Room of Requirement had some interesting and rarely seen props, which I enjoyed. Then through the trap door, it's a close rendition of the movies, but still a bit lacking as far as composition and accuracy. The final bit, the Pensieve... it was just meh. Then you exit through the gift shop... I was excited to possibly buy a few things that i can't elsewhere, but the cost was nearly double or more what the same things cost online or at other venues outside Singapore. Lastly, the Butterbeer was good, but the pastry sets that come with it were dry, overly sweet, and stale, not to mention difficult to swap out if you didn't want a frozen or draft Butterbeer. Then comes the other people, which you have no control over. Rude people, tons of kids that have no supervision, and no flow control of how many people are meandering through, making it feel like a money factory pumping out tickets to maximize profit, not maximize the experience. Overall, it was novel and fun, but disappointing as a true fan. I would not do this again.

Smooth entry, easy E ticket system!
