My friend and I didn't actually mean to book this tour. Originally, we were supposed to take a tour of the Welsh countryside. That tour got cancelled, however, so we made last-minute plans to take this Doctor Who tour. I think this was one of the best decisions we made on our weekend in Cardiff! The tour itself was great!... More

My Children being big Dr Who fans we decided to treat them to this experience. The tour was longer than advertised and i wished we were informed at the start. Matt the tour guide was very good and a complete Dr Who geek. A good afternoon seeing where film shoots had taken place which my children totally enjoyed. Myself i... More

Great tour for avid fans,not for casual viewers or smaller children i would say as visit many locations and if you arent a big fan i think it would be boring. loved the fact that Matt had clips of the locations to refresh your memory while on the bus. he was a great guide,had many stories of his own experiences...

We've just got back from a great couple of days exploring Cardiff and generally having a big Dr Who/Torchwood geek out! The bus tour was fantastic! Matt the guide knew his stuff, and told us some stories which were interesting and funny- really setting the scene and sharing things with us that you would never get to know otherwise! The... More

We thought this tour was brilliant and the guide was a real fan, with great behind-the-scenes stories. He set the scene for each stop with video-clips from the series and was able to answer every question we could throw at him. (he even invited the whole group back to his friends place to watch the latest episode with them !)... More

My kids, ages 10 & 13 are BIG Doctor Who fans -- in fact, that's largely what brought us to Cardiff. So when I learned that there were tours of shooting sites around the city, I figured we simply had to do that. BritMovieTours runs bus tours on some weekend days in the spring, but our few days in Cardiff... More

I found the tour on-line the day of the tour and found it very easy to book. It was definitely worth the money and would highly recommend it. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and has had numerous walk on parts in the new series. His stories added a sense or reality and comedy to the proceedings! The tour catered... More

The tour consisted of getting on and off a bus at different locations that episodes of Dr Who have been filmed at for over three hours....YAWN! With the exception of Castle Coch and the beautiful Llandaff Cathedral......a long and tedious afternoon.

Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear it did not live up to your expectations. However a bus tour is in essence getting on a off a bus to see the locations. This is clear in the tour description on our website that you would have seen at the time of booking. We have many customers who... More

I absolutely loved the tour! Truly worth every penny spent. Matt is a lovely guide who has lots of anecdotes about the filming of the show, seeing as he's even been an extra on set from time to time. He's got a great sense of humour as well. The tour lasted about 3h40, although it got a bit rushed at... More

Just wanted to pass along a commendation for the Doctor Who tour and especially for Matt Jay, our tour guide. We had the private tour on January 23; and from what I understand, it was the first such tour to come with snow! I was still able to take hundreds of pictures, and Matt was wonderful about braving the weather... More
