Baltimore Ghost Tours

I’ve participated in a couple haunted tours… I thought this was the worst one I’ve ever been on. The information was interesting, not at all scary, and delivered very poorly. One of the stories from Bertha’s bar was about a bar tender who went upstairs alone… «He saw a ghost and she started singing a song but they didn’t know what the song was. And they were never able to figure out who the kid was because so many children here of yellow fever.» Yep, that was literally it. And then we went into the bar. And it was like that four separate times. Just kinda of lame. I really felt like it could have been much more interesting and engaging but it was the story teller/​tour guide (Annalise, and thankfully it was her last tour). I was shocked this ghost tour was rated as one of the must-​dos in Baltimore after the first five minutes.

This was definitely a fun way to change up the norm of staying in or going to the same old bars all the time. We met outside of Max’s, crossed into the square and gathered for our first round of ghost stories. Were they true??? Who knows! But they were fun! And Tim was great at telling them, being goofy and engaging. We went to four different bars, two of which I had been to, and two of which I had never heard of! So it was a good mix, I think. I’m glad I was able to try out a few places I probably wouldn’t have if it had been up to me.
Why the 3 stars? It could have been that it was 25 degrees that night but other than the initial story, all the other ones took about 30 seconds to 1 minute and then we rushed into the bars. So I felt like the $ 22 was a bit of an overcharge. If I’m paying for stories, I want more stories! But like I said, the temperature may have influenced that so I would still recommend it to someone looking for a fun couple of hours.

You get a nice dose of local history with a creepy edge to it by a great guide and a good amount of time to pause and relax with a drink at each stop. Our stops included Wharf Rat, Leadbetter’s, Bertha’s, and Horse You Rode in On (while you meet at Max’s you don’t actually go in). About 20 people in the group but it didn’t feel like too much at all, and our guide managed to reach us all without a mic. Overall, loved it!

Went on the original ghost tour for a group bonding event and it was pretty fun. The ghost stories were interesting but not particularly scary. Most of us thought the historical aspect was the best part. Some of us had lived in Baltimore for a few years but never really understood or explored much of Fells Point. For the newcomers to the area, they were really intrigued by all the stories and excited to come back and explore Fells again.
Our tour guide (Rob) was great — very enthusiastic, funny, and friendly.
I would definitely recommend it – I learned more about Fells Point than I ever thought I would in an hour’s time.

I did the PubWalk and it was so fun. Our guide was entertaining although not over the top. I’m a history buff so I loved all the tidbits of info along the way. My partner in crime isn’t as much and still enjoyed it. I’m sure the beer helped.

My family and I went on the original Fells Point ghost tour. Our ages ranged from 75 – 24 and we all had a great time! Our tour guide was informative, funny, and very personable. She was able to tell us a lot about the history of Fells Point and keep us entertained at the same time. We really enjoyed it!

Fun time on the tour with Tim. We learned a little history of the area in Fells Point and learned a few ghost stories. Really liked that we hit local businesses that had a great variety of spirits and most had live music.

The tour was a lot of fun and a great way to learn about Baltimore’s history. There is walking but breaks in between and all the pubs were great spots. I even got chills from one story, and took a picture that definitely had ‘orbs’ in it. Definitely worth the ticket!

My boyfriend and I decided to do the ghost pub tour of fells point. I am native to the city and my boyfriend is from southern Maryland so we have both spent time in the fells point area over the years. We went to Max’s for dinner before hand and had some great beers. The bartender upstairs was great and it was dead so he was really chatty. The pub tour meets outside of Max’s. Our tour was only 4 people which was awesome given the small size of most of the pubs in Fells Point. It was also 100+ degrees out so being able to get inside the pubs instead of standing outside the pubs was of course wonderful! The tour also started early enough that we were able to get into the little pubs before it got too crazy and packed. There were 4 different pubs on the tour and we spent about 30 minutes or so at each one. Our guide had great stories and joined the 4 of us for drinks afterward at the last stop. He was funny and knew a lot of great information about the area. The stories were not scary but more informative, with many little facts I had not heard before. The tour was fun and a little something different to do in the area or looking for something to do before the bars/​restaurants get busy. The only con to the experience was the overall price of the tickets at $ 20pp, though a normal price for walking tours. Liquor/​drinks are not included so $ 15 seems like a fair price given you still tip the guides and buy drinks at each stop.

We love the Baltimore Ghost Tours. Fell’s Point is gorgeous and so full of history. I’ve been on the tour a few times and hope to catch the Mount Vernon tour some time. Always entertaining!

I had a fantastic time on my Bachelorette Ghost Walk Pub Crawl! We heard some good stories (…although not that scary…) and hit some great bars.

I went on the original Fell’s Point ghost walk with my boyfriend, my dad and his girlfriend. I had a really good time and I can’t wait to go back to do their haunted pub tour when it’s just me and my boyfriend. I’ve been on several ghost tours including Frederick, Key West, St Augustine and Harper’s Ferry. This one ranked pretty close to the top.
It wasn’t particularly scary. It was more of a history tour with some incidental ghost stories thrown in, but I learned more about Fell’s Point than I ever thought imaginable in such a short time. The guide was surprisingly knowledgeable about local history and was able to answer some pretty random questions that were thrown at him about particular buildings and the area in general. We had a big group of 20+ people and I was able to hear him at all times over the general noise of Fell’s Point (which you know is pretty amazing if you’ve ever been there on a Saturday night).

The pub tour would probably be fun. But the walking tour is kinda lame. I passed the time trying to scare people once it got dark. One guy jumped about 6 inches when I dropped a coin at his feet.
