Things to Do in Baltimore: Tours, Tickets & Day Trips
Wondering what to do in Baltimore? The three-hour historical sightseeing tour (about $48) is the highest-rated way to link the Inner Harbor, Fort McHenry, Fells Point and Mount Vernon, and a Fells Point food tour ($78–104) is the best-loved way to eat the city’s crab cakes and pit beef.
