Best Dr Who tour ever! - Our tour guide Eugene was amazing. He has been the best tour guide we have had yet. He was so knowledgeable of all the Dr Who episodes and showed us so many locations that we were in Wow every time. What I liked the most about him was that he engaged with my son by asking him direct questions like "what is your favorite episode" or "which Dr is your favorite". This helpped my son come out of his shell as he is very quiet and didn't know what to expect from the tour. My son is a big Dr. Who fan and that is why we went to Cardiff and booked this tour. My son is still talking about the tour weeks after coming back. We just bought the 13th Dr Who series with Jodie Whittaker and in the very 1st episode the police station that Eugene showed us was in it! My son yelled "That's the police station" before I could even take it in. Eugene really did his research and showed us more then we could even imagine. Thank you Eugene for being a great tour guide and now a friend. If you are thinking of booking this tour you should do it quick before it gets full.

Best tour ever! - Eugene was a brilliant host. I booked this as a birthday treat since I'm a big fan of the show and I loved it! Even though it was raining, he made the tour funny and enjoyable finding shelter for us when he could. With reference to all the Doctor Who episodes on hand, we were able to see many filming locations and explain a bit of Cardiff history too. If you're a Doctor Who fan and visiting Cardiff it's a no brianer to go on the tour!

Doctor Who? More like Doctor Where? There! Oh yeah! That's where they filmed Doctor Who! - A truly joyous experience. A very exciting and thorough tour spanning across a number of different Doctors along with visual and descriptive reminders of where the filming locations fit in to the show. The tour guide Eugene was very friendly and professional as well as patient and encouraging with my photo taking and question asking. Thank you Eugene. I would highly reccomend.

Fantastic Tour - One of my favourite moments was standing looking down the small alley they used in Face the Raven. It was cool to see, and then also how it looked in the show. It was awesome!

Excellent tour - really enjoyed it. - Perfect for any Dr Who fans. Eugene was a brilliant guide and really knew his stuff. Lots of detailed insight into many locations used in the series, and it spanned a wide area of the city. We only had a few hours in Cardiff and this was a fantastic way to make the most of the time we had and please our Dr Who fanatic kids at the same time! We loved the secret in the church, but you'll have to go on the tour to find out about that!
