"There can’t be many tours where the highlights include graffiti, a paving slab and a shrine to a TV character." |
It starts with a four-hour-long bus ride, the first of which began on Saturday. It's only £21, and for that fans from across the UK can enjoy "the spot where Donna Noble almost got married, where David Tennant’s doctor fought the Family of Blood and where Captain Jack Harkness died and came back to life."
This is no usual tour across stuffy old buildings and common art and architecture; this expedition across Cardiff treats Doctor Who with as much reverence and awe as a curator admires his collection.
The TARDIS trail is the brainchild of Brit Movie Tours director Lewis Swan, whose company runs some 28 tours around the UK, ranging from Downton Abbey to Harry Potter, James Bond and Gavin and Stacey.
He said: "Doing it as a bus tour is the best way because a lot of the really good locations are spread out all over Cardiff.
"People love these things. Going to the actual locations where your favourite show was filmed is a big thing for fans. It's quite exciting to stand in the same place as their screen heroes."Source credit, including the following video, goes to Wales Online, whose comprehensive article you really ought to read!
