Guided Tours
The Baltimore Area Convention and Visitors Association offers numerous history tours of the city, but for those seeking a bit of variety, try the Baltimore Ghost Tours. Led by two knowledgeable guides, the organization offers three fun "GhostWalks" around Fells Point, its pubs and Mt. Vernon, offering an intriguing look at Baltimore's "haunted" past.Another unique way of seeing the city is via "duck" with the Ride the Ducks organization. Sitting in vehicles reminiscent of military DUKW's that can travel on land and water, you will sail through Inner Harbor, then ride through the city's downtown streets. The tour will pass several key attractions, including the Battle Monument, Baltimore Washington Monument and Edgar Allan Poe's grave.
