We were able to see sites on narrow historic streets; UA has 6-seat electric golf cart type vehicles. Other tour busses and trolleys simply can't maneuver those parts of the city! Mike was personable, friendly and knew so much! I have a masters in history and I was fully impressed with his wealth of knowledge and interesting anecdotes. The price of our tour was so affordable as so worth every penny! The only thing left to do was to grab lunch and talk about all the sites Mike had shown us - and no tired feet!

5/5 -- Incredible Halloween Ghost Tour with Kasey!…read more We had an amazing experience on the Annapolis Ghost Tour with Kasey on Halloween night! Her storytelling was absolutely captivating -- she brought every tale to life with incredible detail, fun facts, and just the right touch of spooky flair. You could tell she really loves what she does, and that made the whole evening so engaging. We also loved that our tour included stops at three fantastic bars, each with its own private room where we could relax, enjoy a drink, and listen to more stories -- it made the night feel extra special and intimate. The highlight for us was the basement of the Maryland Inn -- that space was simply picture-perfect and full of atmosphere! If you're looking for a fun, fascinating, and slightly spooky night out in Annapolis, we can't recommend Kasey enough. She made our Halloween unforgettable!

It was such a FUN evening! Watching the sunset from the water, the drinks were flowing (loved that it was BYOB, we brought a cooler for us, but they already had one on the boat as well!) and being on the water... doesn't get much better IMO Can't recommend this party boat enough! The captain and the owner, Trevor, were responsive and helpful in booking and finding the location of where the boat docks. Would be so fun to bring the girls back for a gals night or even a bachelorette party. Can't wait to book again this summer and maybe even for the air show Ps - make sure you use the bathroom before you leave bc there isn't really one on the boat haha

I asked at the Visitors center if we can reschedule and was told no. However, it appears that you can buy tickets the same day so it's probably in your best interest to buy in person.

Tip: Dont buy advance tickets, the company will not reschedule if you're delayed due to traffic and local street closures.

I just visited the U.S. Naval Academy Museum for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and I was…read morereally impressed. The museum is located in Preble Hall on the grounds of the U.S. Naval Academy, so you'll need to check in/go through security at the visitor entrance (they check ID and run your bags through a metal detector), but it was very fast. Then it's just a quick walk over to Preble Hall. When we entered, we welcomed to the museum by two docents, who briefly explained what could be found in the museum, including their favorite parts of the collection (which was perfect, because we had less than hour in the museum before they closed). The museum is two floors. The first floor has exhibits on the development of the Navy and the history of the Naval Academy. The second floor houses an incredible collection of models of warships from the 17th-19th centuries (one of the largest collections of ship models). I wasn't sure this would be that interesting to me, but the docents had really highlighted this part of the collection during their introduction. I'm so glad we trusted them, because it was fascinating. One part of this collection really blew me away - the bone model display. It might sound morbid, but these models were carved from the bones of beef rations given to French prisoners of war during their incarceration in England (Anglo-French wars of 1756-1815). I had no idea about any of this history (does anyone?!), and it was really interesting. But the first floor also had amazing artifacts, and I learned a lot. Overall, this museum (also free, by the way) was pretty great. Even if you're not typically interested in naval history, this museum is special. It's well-curated and interesting. And those docents were wonderful! I'm sure I'll be back to take in what I didn't have time to on my first visit!
