A good one for fans - The tour is not like others where it’s all mocked up sets but instead seeing places in the dockyard where filming has happened and therefore appreciating the magic producers do.
Our tour guide midwife Helen was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the tour displayed in friendly and welcoming manner which made it really enjoyable.
The dockyard itself is really interesting and tour tickets include entry for the day into the dock which I felt was good as a whole day could be made.
Parking is then also free with plenty of spaces.
The tour includes some walking with uneven ground so you do need good shoes.
Overall definitely one to recommend for true lovers of the show.

A must for all programme fans plus loads of history on site plus cafe - Visited with friends The historic docks are very interesting and you can wonder the whole site but the midwife tour guide brings much more information and explains how the outdoor scenes are put together the she unlocks access to other artifacts. Mission Impossible scenes filmed there too!

Great trip - Thoroughly enjoyed it - so much to see. Only problem - had our photos taken - which was free but on downloading you have to pay additional £3.99 ! So didn’t bother. We weren’t told this.
