Complete Cardiff Doctor Who Walking Tour

Cathays Park - Cardiff Civic Centre

Cathays Park is full of buildings that have featured prominently in Doctor Who, including City Hall, the Temple of Peace, the Glamorgan Building, Cardiff University and the National Museum. We will discuss all of these buildings, the episodes they feature in, and more, across the first section of the tour.

Cardiff Castle

Cardiff Castle is the centre piece of the city, and the historical point from which the city of Cardiff emerged. It has also featured in Doctor Who occasionally, from Rebel Flesh in Series 6 to Heaven Sent in Series 10.

The everyday innocuous streets of Cardiff city centre play a vital role in the development of modern Doctor Who. While the Civic Centre area might be more significant for its buildings, the shopping area of the city centre is vital for its side streets.

Principality Stadium

The Principality Stadium is the home of Welsh rugby, and also the home of the Stormcage Facilty and played a prominent role in the the first series story, 'Dalek'.

This area of suburban Cardiff, linking the city centre to Cardiff Bay, players a major role in Series 1 & 2 in particular. Discover where the Tyler family really hung out, where 'ghosts' once appeared, where Sally Sparrow met DI Billy Shipton and a lot more...

Cardiff Bay

Following 90 minutes or so in Cardiff city centre, we move on to Cardiff Bay. The city's waterfront development features a host of locations and buildings that have featured extensively in Doctor Who, and even Torchwood, including the Senedd, the Wales Millennium Centre, The Exchange and Roald Dahl Plass.
