5.00Fantastic walking tour! Our tour guide, Richard, was wonderful - he was super friendly and knowledgeable about all things Doctor Who and Cardiff. I especially loved hearing his anecdotes about his experience acting as an extra in Doctor Who! A great way to see the city whilst also visiting some really interesting Doctor Who filming locations. Even my partner, who has never watched an episode of Doctor Who in his life, enjoyed it :) Would recommend pairing this with the Cardiff Bay tour in the afternoon.
Childhood complete!

5.00This tour was absolutely amazing. It was so interesting seeing the sights and picture my childhood show coming to life. The tour guide was so polite and helpful when going around the city. So much information I didn’t know about the show. Definitely worth the money.
A must do tour for Doctor Who fans!

5.00We had such a pleasant morning with Richard, who was a fantastic tour guide. We saw so many sites from across all the Doctors series (2002-present); Richard showed us pictures from various scenes as we went. He also gave us some great facts about Cardiff and its history. Our 9-year old loved it - especially seeing pictures of Richard in action as a supporting artist! The beautiful weather was an added bonus (though we appreciate that’s not always a guarantee!). We would highly recommend this tour, thanks again Richard and we’ll keep an eye out for you now in future episodes :-)
Great Experience

5.00We had a a great time. My son said "it was amazing". The tour was engaging and interesting at every point. We enjoyed Richard's titbits of experience as a Dr who extra along at the way. We came to Cardiff especially for this tour and we look forward to coming back to do another one.
Perfect Dr Who tour

5.00Amazing tour! We would have never known about all the hidden locations around Cardiff and the TV pictures were excellent to match up the locations to what we've watched. The tour also introduced us to several Cardiff landmarks and gave us a great introduction to the city to help us get our bearings. The tour guide was engaging and absolutely lovely. We'll definitely come back for the Cardiff Bay tour!
A wonderful day celebrating Doctor Who!

5.00A wonderful and sunny day celebrating all things Doctor Who. Not only did we have a fabulous and enthusiastic tour guide - thank you Terrence! But we got to walk around Cardiff looking at various locations, looking at stills as we went. Not only did we have a huge insight into the fab show, but Terrence also gave some great facts into local Cardiff history too. It was really was a wonderful day out - would recommend to any Whovian!
