A Harry Potter-themed cruise has been announced in the UK and it promises to be truly magical.

An American travel company, Barge Ladies, is offering six day Magna Carta river cruises next summer. The luxury cruise fits up to eight passengers in four rooms, which means you can take your wizarding family and friends on the all-inclusive holiday.

As the barge winds its way through the charming English countryside, it will make several stops along the way at key locations in the Harry Potter films. You will visit Virginia Water, where Harry first meets Buckbeak and Warner Brothers Studios to tour the Harry Potter set. The barge will also stop at Oxford’s Christ Church College, where you can walk around Hogwart’s Great Hall.

You might want to pack your dress robes for the magical Hogwarts-inspired meals, and there will also be champagne receptions, tea and scones and an open bar.

Each barge is priced at almost AUD$46,000 – but if you consider splitting it eight ways with seven other muggles, it’s slightly more affordable.

Either way, you might want to start saving your galleons now.
