Private Baltimore Historical Sightseeing Tours

My friend and I were the only ones on this tour and our guide made us feel so welcomed. He was very personable and educated about the city. He was very professional and funny! We has should a great time on this tour. He even provided us with a small nice gift. I thought that was absolutely amazing. Surprisingly we ran into him on another tour the same day that he actually wasn’t leading. It shows how he was going out to support other tours in the community as well as tips on how to improve his own. It was great. I highly recommend this tour! You won’t regret it!

It was very informative. The tour guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. It was nice to be in a shuttle bus where it was cool.

Ira was punctual, flexible and knowledgeable . 2 hours tour was our discovery of Baltimore history. Thank you Ira and Viator

Very attentive tour guide, many historic and personal stories shared, very knowledgeable, and funny.

Where possible I'm drawn to smaller business and try to support where I can. Ira's tours was wonderful and I can see why he is so highly rated. He has really put years and effort into into researching the areas and finding interestings tidbits. It's also very clear that he has seen the area change over the years but also wants to give you some of the history around that and help you to imagine what it was like back then (he grew up in the area). Even though it was just the two of us who'd booked - Ira was ever the professional and gave us his twist pointing out areas of note. You travel into areas that you would never have been able to if you were touring solo - the area you cover is vast. He also goes above and beyond and you get a goodie bag when you leave - I am not going to spoil what you get but go on the tour to receive your own ;) In a twist of faith, Ira happened to be on another tour that I had booked to get ideas. I am waiting for him and his wife (Shout out to Mrs L) to start to do their own food tour that covers the food they like which is the food I like ;) You both know I'll fly back over from the UK for it...

Learned so much and loved our guide. He was extremely informative and willing to answer whatever questions we had. I highly recommend going on this tour whether you are a native Baltimorean or a tourist.

Excellent tour. We were able to see and learn about many Baltimore neighborhoods that we had never visited, many of which don't show up in guidebooks. Our guide is a native of Baltimore, as is his father, who created this tour and owns the business. Baltimore has an interesting history and we enjoyed hearing about the rich cultural diversity that has enriched this wonderful city.

The guide (son of the man who started the company 3 years ago) was informative and entertaining. Nice mix of technical data provided by prerecorded snippets and personalized home-grown stories and information about what it was actually like growing up in several of the neighborhoods and spending time in most of the others. Tour provided a very positive image of Baltimore as it covered the inner harbor area and inner-city neighborhoods but did not venture into any of the more challenged neighborhoods immediately surrounding the downtown neighborhoods.

Great overview of Baltimore City in two hours. Informative, useful city highlights trip. Visited all the neighborhoods. Especially good for the first-time visitor. Ira loves his city & it shows! Highly recommend.
