    An interesting tour with a brilliant tour guide, Clare. She bought the scenes to life with her enthusiasm and humour. Plenty of history about the docks as well. Seeing the replica sets and costumes and props was great but didnt get long enough in there. Only thing I found difficult was the terrain. There were many different surfaces with drains and train tracks to trip on during this walking tour plus cobble stones in places. Also went on a tour round the ropery to see them producing ropes that are still sold to various companies.

    If you are a fan of the show then I’d definitely recommend this tour. We really enjoyed it, as it states it is a walking tour so keep that in mind if your not one for much walking. It was great to see all the key spots and our tour guide was so informative. I went with my sister, mum & mother in law (ages ranging from 40-76). We didn’t have time to go round all that is at the dockyard after we’d done the tour as we wanted to grab some food in the restaurant (which was very nice). Will definitely do another visit with my son & husband and go round all of the other elements of the dockyard. Parking is free if you book a tour (give your reg when getting your entry tickets).

    Four of us took this tour two of which are very slow walkers. The guide was brilliant and waited patiently to accommodate them and advised different routes if couldnt do the few steps necessary. She was so knowledgable about the show. I wouldn’t say I got much out of walking the empty areas imaging the scenes but at the end when you see all the props was fun. Also great that we could see the dockyard and ships. Great day out

    Much enjoyed this tour, with Irene as our knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. I feel some of the criticism on this page is unfair: the ticket (£40) for the tour includes access to all of Chatham Historic Dockyard (£32) so unless someone corrects me £8 for the CTM tour would seem a bargain. Although often used for this purpose the Historic Dockyard is not a filmset as such, so I would not have expected a studio experience. Concluding the tour with the props and costume exhibition is a great idea. Much recommended!
