Doctor Who Tour of Cardiff Locations
On this 10 hour intergalactic Doctor Who tour designed for fans of the famous Time Lord we’ll head off from London along the M4 to South Wales by luxury mini coach to where the hugely popular BBC TV series is made.
The Doctor Who tour will take you to many of the key locations that have been used since the show’s return in 2005 in and around Cardiff in Wales.
We’ll also visit the Doctor Who exhibition in Cardiff where you can see many of the props and costumes from the show and pick up a souvenir. You’ll get a chance to have lunch in Cardiff and then take a walk around some of the locations that have been featured in and around the Bay area.
You’ll learn how the show is made, watch the DVD clips as we pass the actual locations, get trivia about some of the stars from the show and get the opportunity to take pictures and see the locations up close. Feel free to get dressed up as the Doctor or his assistant in one of their many costumes (this is purely optional). At the end of the Doctor Who tour we’ll also send you a souvenir group picture by email. The tour will end at Earls Court tube station.
