Is this worth doing with a teenager?

Edinburgh is also popular with HP fans and a great city for teenagers with lots to keep them amused. Spot some familiar names in Greyfriars Kirkyard including he who shall not be named.
Next to Greyfriars sits George Heriot's School which is believed to be the inspiration for Hogwarts. Herioters love to recount tales of the school's very own ghost - a little boy who haunts one of the turrets.
Victoria Street is thought to have inspired Daigon Alley and it's easy to see why.
The Elephant House Cafe is now a pilgrimage site for fans as JK Rowling wrote some of the first novel there.
If you go to the Elephant House, make sure you visit the loo (I won't give away why).
I did this in January and really enjoyed it, there were several teenagers on the tour who seemed to enjoy it too.
