Overview

If youre a fan of the BBC science fiction television series 'Doctor Who', youll love this 3-hour private tour of sites filmed on location throughout London. Cruising around the city in an iconic black taxi youll visit well-known spots (and some hidden gems) from the films and TV series aired since 1963. On this family-friendly tour, your witty and informative guide will share stories about the Daleks and numerous other archenemies that roamed the streets, with the Doctor in hot pursuit!

Know More about this tour

After pickup from your hotel, your knowledgeable and friendly local guide will take you by private taxi through central London to see numerous on-site locations where Doctor Who was filmed during the past 50 years. While driving to each site, your guide will fill you in on a bit of London history and stop for photographs at major landmarks. Youll have multiple stops to purchase food (own expense) along the way.


See where famous scenes with the Time Lord were shot during the filming of The Chase, Dalek Invasion of Earth and more. Stand on the bridge where the Daleks started their invasion of London, get your picture taken on the spot where Rose and the Doctor stood by The london eye, and stand outside the building that became 10 downing street.


During your private tour, learn fun facts from your guide via trivia questions, and listen to fascinating and eerie science fiction tales of episodes involving Cybermen, Headless Monks, The Silence, River Song and Weeping Angels. Hear anecdotes about those who have played the doctors (and their assistants), from William Hartnell in 1963 to present-day Matt Smith.


Before your private tour ends with drop-off at your London hotel, be sure to get your photograph taken next to the only remaining British Police box in London. Youll notice an uncanny resemblance to the Doctor's time-traveling spacecraft the TARDIS!

    What a great tour. We got driven around in style with Andrew in the black cab. It was great that he had a DVD player and showed clips of the monuments. Knowledgeable and entertaining. Thank you.

    I loved the tour. was very cool to connect scenes from so many episodes with where they were shot around London. what i didn't expect was how much i learned about London just because of all the famous places that have been in the show so it really was a Dr Who tour and a London tour. My guide was great!

    My wife and I booked this tour as part of our first visit to London. We found it to be very enjoyable and our guide, Andrew was full of information, anecdotes, and was very entertaining. The sites were a nice blend of all of the different Doctor's over the years. Getting to see, and have our picture taken with the last, blue Police Box was very nice. Andrew was great during the whole tour, and also provided information and anecdotes of other sites along the way as well.

    My husband and I visited London with our teenage son. It was his first trip to the capital city. We only had one day to see the sights and as our son is a big fan of Doctor Who we choose the 3 hour taxi tour as the best way to see as many sights as we could in the short time we had available. Our tour guide and driver, Steve, arrived at our hotel a few minutes ahead of schedule and was very friendly, putting us all at our ease. He spent time chatting with us to find out our particular interests so that he could tailor the tour to include all the sights we would enjoy. The tour was wonderful! My son got to visit sights where Doctor Who episodes have been filmed, including all the big tourist attractions in London such as Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge, Parliament, Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus, the Shard and the Tower of London. Steve was able to chat with our son about Doctor Who characters and interesting facts about the series. In addition Steve also took us to sights that my husband and I were delighted to see. We went to Abbey Road and got a photo on the Beatles iconic zebra crossing. We stopped at the bookshop from the film ‘Nottinghill’, visited the Globe Theatre and also stopped off at a vintage car showroom for a look at James Bond 007 type Aston Martins. Throughout the tour Steve kept us entertained and informed with anecdotes and stories about the City..... where David Beckham and Robbie William live, and how ‘Humpty Dumpty’ was actually a little round cannon! Steve knows the city like the back of his hand and was able to stop at all the best places to get excellent photos. During the tour Steve looked after our comfort by providing bottles of water, directing us to available toilet facilities and pointing out places to purchase snacks. The tour exceeded our expectations and really made our visit to London a trip to remember! I would highly recommend this tour if you want to visit as many sights as possible, if you want to avoid crowds, if you would find walking too tiring or if you want a tour specifically tailored to your particular interest.

    Great time with an extremely knowledgeable driver. A great way to see the city with kids who are fans of the series. Every stop is tied to multiple episodes to make it relevant to them. Lots of fun.

    We really enjoyed this tour. Besides visiting the Doctor Who sites, the driver also included up close visits to some areas that we would never have seen as closely without this tour. We visited the Globe theater and saw some gorgeous views of landmarks in London. We also visited the last working police box in London and the BBC headquarters. The driver was very personable and polite.

    The tour included pointing out some of the main Doctor Who filming locations, photographs with the last remaining police box outside in London, the Tardis at the BBC, and a dalek at the BBC. Some of the best parts of the tour had nothing to do with Doctor Who including a walk through a modern and actively being worked on spray painted subway, a walk on the shore of the Thames, photos on the Millenium bridge, a trip to an armour/weapons exhibit and a recommendation to go to the war museum.
