Baltimore Maryland Tourism At a GlanceBest Time to Visit Baltimore Maryland
Much like the rest of the Mid-Atlantic, Baltimore experiences all four seasons. Keep in mind though that since it's on the water, the weather can change often. Spring is a great time to visit Baltimore - not only for baseball games at Camden Yards, but for the picturesque scenery. Baltimore plays hosts to several festivals and events year-round. One of its major tourist attractions is Preakness, a segment of the Triple Crown. This event takes place in May and draws a huge crowd. The city holds many waterfront and neighborhood festivals during the summer as well, including Artscape, a three-day event honoring the arts. Click Here to find hotels in Baltimore.

Average temperatures in the spring and fall are a mild 50 to 60 degrees. In winter, temperatures aren't known to drop much lower than 30 degrees, but occasional snow is possible. Summers tend to be very hot and humid, with average temperatures in the 80s and 90s. Transportation
Most visitors to Baltimore choose to tour the city in a car. It's fairly easy to navigate, given its many alternating one-way streets. Parking can be rather expensive, especially if you're downtown. If you're planning to travel from the Inner Harbor to areas north, it's wise to take a cab. You can find taxis at most major hotels, the train station and scattered throughout the harbor. Depending on the distance you're traveling, fares range from $5 to $10. For those staying in downtown Baltimore, the Metro offers limited service. Don't depend on it as your sole source of transportation. If you're heading into the suburbs or BWI Airport, the Metro is great. It also makes stops at Camden Yards, Penn Station and Mount Washington. In-Season Costs
If you're staying in downtown Baltimore during the spring or summer, rates might be a little higher. The Inner Harbor is slightly more expensive than other parts of Baltimore, but you should be able to find some bargains. Less expensive than the nation's capital, Baltimore won't break the bank.

Light Flight Balloon Rides and Barnstormer Aero in MD
Hot Air Balloon and Biplane Rides in Maryland and PA, and DE
Category: Bel Air Balloon Ride near Baltimore, Maryland
User Rating: 
Description of this Baltimore area Activity: If the romance and adventure of balloon and vintage airplane flight appeals to you, allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Light Flight Balloons, Inc. and Barnstormer Aero, a full time, full service Maryland company offering balloon charter flights, tethered balloon promotions, and open cockpit biplane rides for Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. We are proud to have been flying for twenty-seven years without incident. Your enjoyment and the safety of the flight are our first priorities. Accordingly, our aircraft are certified, licensed, and inspected as required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Your flight will piloted by an experienced and professional FAA licensed Commercial Balloon or Airplane Pilot. Our pilots have a combined experience of over sixty years of accident free flying. Our Chief Pilot served as an Accident Prevention Counselor for the FAA for 23 years and is both a Commercial Balloon and Airplane pilot.
When you book with us you are dealing directly with the people who will provide your flight and be flying with you; not some a broker who has no aircraft or pilots and little or no interest in you after the sale. Many companies will simply provide a certificate for you to fly with some unknown company; paying them a reduced fare to provide the service. Unfortunately, you will most likely end up with poor service and a bad experience all of which we believe is dire for our industry as a whole. We are concerned about your safety and your enjoyment of the flight from the time you purchase, schedule, and fly. We work diligently to have you as customer for life and provide a level of service that will have you talking about the fun you had for years to come.
The reasons we should be your number one choice for a flight are simple:
1. We are experienced - twenty eight years in business without an incident.
2. We are full time - we do this for a living and not as a retirement or hobby business to supplement our income - we fly every flyable day, not just occasionally.
3. We are local and a Maryland Corporation. You are dealing directly with your flight crew and not a broker or some middle man.
We hope that we may be of service to you to provide an experience and memories that will last a lifetime. We are happy to assist you in scheduling a flight, providing a gift, or address your questions and encourage you to call or e-mail us.

Hampton National Historic Site
National Park
Category: Towson National Park near Baltimore, Maryland
Description of this Baltimore area Attraction: Hampton offers an exceptional opportunity to learn about an important part of American history, our aspirations, our values, and the moral choices we have struggled with through the years.
The park preserves a vast estate from the 1700s. Its centerpiece is an elegantly furnished Georgian mansion set amid formal gardens and shade trees. When it was finished in 1790, Hampton was the largest house in the United States. It is the story of a seven generation family business, early American industry and commerce, and changing cultural tastes. It is also the story of the economic and moral changes that made this kind of estate life obsolete.
Most of all, Hampton is the story of people -- enslaved African Americans, indentured servants, hired industrial and agricultural workers, and the estate owners -- who made this lifestyle possible.
