I went to see this with my boyfriend in Baltimore Harbor after my father suggested we take a look at it; at first I thought it would be very boarding but I quickly realized otherwise. After we got on the first ship (out of three) I was instantly hooked all the bath ways are nicely shown, they have great description... More

The Baltimore Maritime Museum includes a Coast Guard Cutter, WWII Submarine, a ship that serviced lighthouses and the USS Constellation sloop-of-war. One can purchase admission to one, two or all four ships. For the price difference, we decided that we would see all four. We enjoyed taking our time seeing all four ships as we walked the inner harbor but... More

Tour the submarine and other ships as well as the museum. Baltimore has so much history tied to the harbor and the bay.

Every stop has something to interest everyone in the family. The ships, the lighthouse, whatever, you have to appreciate every aspect of Baltimore's great maritime history and the role these vessels and location have played.

Went here on our first day. Brought package to see all 4 boats. Had a great time exploring all the ships. Will do it again when we come back. BTW if you take a water taxi ride they provided a coupon to get the 4 boat tour for the price of a 1 boat tour. Unfortuneately we didn't ride the... More

I visited from oct 15-19th. I really liked the USS Torsk submarine. All of the ship tours are self guided, so you can linger as long as you like. There are lots of pictures and displays showing the ships in action.

All of them are self guided tours, but you go can through the ships pretty thoroughly if you choose. The submarine... More

They liked to Torsk because there was some knobs and wheels you could turn aboud it. And on the Constellation, they got to see how everyone lived and got to see a real cannon be... More
