Baltimore Attractions

  • The American Visionary Arts Museum
    A must-see for a Baltimore visit.  Our group tour at the AVAM is now full, unfortunately. But we recommend squeezing a visit in if you can for the exhibit: Human, Soul & Machine: The Coming Singularity!
  • The Walters Art Museum
    An amazing collection of art from antiquity to the 20th century, general admission is free to the public and it’s only two blocks from the Peabody Court Hotel.
  • Geppi’s Entertainment Museum
    Geppi’s Entertainment Museum is dedicated to presenting the story of popular culture since the nation’s earliest days in an entertaining and educational fashion so that our guests have the unique opportunity to walk through a timeline that parallels and is entwined with history as a whole. Great classic comic and toy collections.
  • The National Aquarium in Baltimore
    A must-see for any Baltimore visitor. The National Aquarium exhibits a tremendous variety of species in their naturalistic habitats.
  • Baltimore Museum of Art
    Located in the Charles Village neighborhood North of Mount Vernon, the BMA is home to an internationally renowned collection of 19th-century, modern, and contemporary art. The BMA today has 90,000 works of art, including the largest holding of works by Henri Matisse in the world.
  • Fort McHenry
    During the War of 1812, this star-shaped brick fort successfully defended Baltimore from an attack by the British navy. The Star-Spangled Banner lyrics were derived from a poem about this famous battle.
