The Main Event

Cardiff has been the heart of Doctor Who since its return in 2005, and this two-and-a-half hour walking tour is packed with filming locations, hidden gems, and iconic backdrops from the show. From the steps of Cardiff Castle to the grand civic centre and secret spots only true fans will recognise, it’s a chance to relive epic adventures and uncover the behind-the-scenes stories that bring the series to life.

Led by an expert guide who’s as passionate about the show as any superfan, you’ll get the inside scoop on recent specials including the 60th Anniversary episodes and “The Church on Ruby Road.” Expect fascinating facts, fun trivia, and a few surprises along the way. And yes, there’s always the chance of bumping into a Dalek or Cyberman, so keep your camera ready!

The tour ends at the National Museum of Wales, another well-known filming location, but the memories you’ll make will last much longer. It’s the perfect experience for families, couples, or friends looking for something different to do in Cardiff.

Best of all, this tour goes ahead in all weather, so come rain, shine, or alien invasion, the adventure never stops. Just don’t forget comfy shoes and your sonic screwdriver (just in case).

Ideal as a birthday surprise, Christmas gift, or just a unique day out, the Doctor Who Cardiff Walking Tour is a brilliant way to explore a fantastic city through the lens of a British TV legend.
