Most of the locations are from the 'New-Who' episodes (2005 to now) but you'll recognise a few from the 'Classic-Who' series, so whether you grew up with William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, David Tennant or Matt Smith, there should be something for everyone.

See lots of famous London landmarks

Come dressed as your favourite Dr Who character

You might like to add to the fun and come in a costume (lots of people do!) so feel free to dress up as your favourite Doctor, assistant or baddie character from the last fifty years... just remember that there might be a few stairs if you trundle up as a Dalek!

Note: The tour includes a bus short bus ride so you'll have to provide your own Oyster card, contactless card or travelcard that covers zone 1, as the bus fare isn't included.
