Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is at the top of our bucket list.

But since our Firebolt got, er, lost in the mail, we’ll have to settle for muggle travel instead. Thankfully, discount travel site UpgradedPoints.com found out exactly where our innermost wizard wants to go based on our Hogwarts House. The site surveyed 1,500 Americans using results from the Pottermore sorting hat quiz to determine which Harry Potter Hogwarts House they belonged to first, then polled their preferences for their dream vacation destination (and mode of transport).

For example, if you identify more with Gryffindor, a couple of your best bets are Rome or Paris (where you may spot Fleur Delacour, if you’re lucky).

Overall, London was the top choice for all four houses, which makes sense, considering it’s home to King’s Cross Station, platform 9¾ and Diagon Alley (if you play your cards right).

More of a Slytherin? Apparently, you're not keen on leaving the U.S., and would rather stay closer to home instead (because, who knows when the He Who Must Not Be Named will call his death-eaters to his side once again?).

Ravenclaws scored highest for international travel, probably because they're the most bookish and have a desire to always learn more about the world.

TBH, no matter what house, we'd be satisfied with any of the places on this list.

Someone pass the Floo powder, please. We’re in desperate need of a Harry Potter–level magical vacay.
