We did the tour with Richard who was excellent. He explained how the filming was done, showed us pictures of the scenes and ensured we could see how the buildings had been changed. We are planning to do the Cardiff Bay tour the next time we are in the area.
A very interesting tour by Richard, who played in Doctor Who. It was worth every cent and I can't recommend it enough.
The tour was decent and it was a cool experience. Our tour guide, Bill, was insightful and gave us a lot of interesting facts. Unfortunately, one thing I found unprofessional and uncomfortable were some negative remarks/reactions towards us being Americans. Whether or not we agree or disagree with the sentiments, I think it would be best to not voice any opinions about tourists' nationalities. Besides that, I really liked being able to see so many filming spots and getting behind the scenes facts about the show.
The tour guide Bill is passionate about sharing his knowledge of Dr. Who filming locations in Cardiff. He is charming and funny. Highly recommend this tour.
It is a must for Dr Who fans. Bill knew his stuff and was very engaging. Also great to engage in. Chat with other Dr Who fans.
Bill was amazing. So informative, great to have a Dr Who guide who is a genuine Whovian.
Terrance, our tour guide was absolutely amazing. Good knowledge of both dr who lore and the history of the city made him perfect for a tour of fans and hangers on alike. My son who was the true fan was thrilled with the tour, which was our whole point of flying to the UK from the States. Would highly recommend for any families with a Dr Who fan.
Guide was very knowledgeable and a good storyteller. It was nice that he included Cardiff history as well. A lot crammed into 2 1/2 hrs, and he kept our interest.
Great tour for fans of dr. Who and interesting Cardiff history generally.
Terrance was an amazing and instantly welcoming tourguide - passionate about his subject matter and a great communicator. So much crammed in but pace brilliantly judged. One very happy 13 year old Whovian and the whole family had a great time too.
