Bond. Sam Bond. He’s got a licence… to thrill you with history.
Actor. Most recently in George Clooney’s The Midnight Sky. He’s been an entrepreneur – ran an online corporate training company for 20 years with Blue Chip clients. He’s been a foodie – hosted his own pop-up restaurant at home. And now? He’s one of the great Blue Badge Guides.
Five-star TripAdvisor reviews follow him around like groupies. Why? Because Sam joins the dots. He’ll take you from Shakespeare’s lost London lodgings to the stages the Bard trod… from St Bartholomew’s Church by the Roman wall to Westminster Abbey… from Chaucer’s Borough inns to Canterbury Cathedral. He makes the past click. History suddenly makes sense – and it’s a blast.
Sam’s politically savvy, too – he can unravel everything from the succession of kings and queens to Brexit, with wit and clarity. Born host. Comfortable nine-seater people carrier, castles and stately homes galore – Windsor, Hever, Dover, Leeds, Highclere, Blenheim, you name it. Or magical countryside jaunts to Stonehenge, Bath, Oxford, Cambridge. He makes the road trip as good as the destination.
Off-duty? You’ll find him in Bermondsey with a craft coffee, or deep in debate about whisky (he co-founded Flint, Fox & Bond, which whisks lovers of the dram on high-class Highland tours). Oh – and he’s a father of three, so yes, he knows how to juggle.
In short: Sam Bond’s the real deal. Brains, charm, stories, and a grin that says you’re in very good hands. You’ll love him.
