About this activity

Combine Cardiff's rich heritage with Doctor Who pilgrimage on this full-day private tour from London. Travel 3 hours through Wales to explore the Welsh capital's iconic landmarks—from medieval Cardiff Castle to the regenerated Cardiff Bay—then spend 2 hours tracing 30+ filming locations from over 20 episodes of the beloved sci-fi series across the city's streets and studios.

Our journey from London to the Welsh capital, Cardiff, will take almost 3 hrs by car. Cardiff is rich in history, offering exquisite marvels such as Cardiff Castle, National Museum of Cardiff, Norwegian Church, Cardiff Bay and The Principality Stadium in the city. After lunch, we shall start our 2-hour walking tour of the film locations of the famous series Dr Who. Cardiff has been home to Doctor Who since the 2005 show came back, where you will experience more than 30 memorable scenes from over 20 episodes on this fully-guided walking tour. Your movie tour starts at Cardiff Castle including Danny's death from Series 8, a tour of the National Museum of Wales, the site of Donna Noble's bad wedding, Rose Tyler's workplace and many more. Your APTG qualified tour guide will show you how planetary and interstellar scenes have been filmed on-site in Cardiff, giving you a chance to follow the footsteps of the Doctor Who and his helpers.
