    We did the 8:30 tour with a big group of friends and it was so fun! The staff were so funny and friendly, and they handled a bunch of drunk adults so well. The website says cash tip, but they have Venmo and Cashapp options! The tour is about an hour and it sails around the Inner Harbor. There is loud music, lots of dancing and shouting, and plenty of pirate talk and booze. This was such a fun, unique way to explore Baltimore in a new way.

    When I tell you this crew goes above and beyond I truly mean it! They made my birthday girl (7) feel so special on her special day! Such a fun experience! We will definitely return and highly recommend for anyone with young kids! Amazing Crew!!

    This was so much fun! The crew teaches the kids pirate talk, pirate dances, and helps them fend off an "evil" pirate in the harbor with water cannons. The wee pirates of course earn loot, and get pirate names as well as tattoos. The cruise itself is about an hour. My kid loved it!

    I bought a ticket for a Saturday and hours later I tested positive for COVID. I asked for a refund because I was going for a birthday party, instead of a refund they are giving a "rain check." Who wants a rain check? No one! It's more than 72 hours in advance of our time to go on the boat and a refund should be given. Poor management. I'm glad I'm not going and the group I was going yo go with is now making other plans.

    COVID: Its an out door pirate boat, there was no social distancing or masks required. We went to the "Bring Your Own Grog" cruise. Overall it lasts about an hour and a half including boarding time, so about an hour off the docks. The crew is friendly and has a lot of fun with the customers, joking around, playing drinking games like pass the coconuts and the limbo. Be ready for what it is, a drinking pirate cruise, no point in going if you're not ready to deal with loud foul mouthed pirates and wenches! Don't forget to tip the crew for a job well done!

    Fun evening at the harbor and Fells Point. BYOB on the boat with great pirates leading the ship. We had a group of 20 for the voyage. Plenty of good beer and shots of rum. Beautiful night and we were able to watch the sunset.

    This was such a chaotic, dumb, and most importantly FUN time! I came here for the BYOG 10pm cruise, and it was so SO fun! The premise is that you can bring all of your own drinks on board and have fun with your friends while the pirate ship just circles around inside of the harbor. You need tickets for this, and they sell out quite a few days in advance, so plan ahead! This was a really nice change up from the typical bar-outing, and it is right at Fells in an easy-to-find spot (you can't miss the huge pirate ship in the harbor). Check-in is quite easy, and they give you a wrist band to verify check-in. I believe that you are not allowed to bring any open drink bottles on board, so just wait until you're on the boat to open anything that you might be worried about having to dump out! There was a chance of rain when I went, but it mainly held off and only drizzled a bit while we were on board, so be attentive of the weather! One of the staff (Snot Rocket) was giving people name tags with super funny nicknames, and she even takes nickname requests! We played a few games on board, but they weren't that involved or lengthy, so if you're not feeling like playing games with the other people on the boat, don't worry. Birthday folks got a free shot (of rum, I believe). They have a bathroom on the ship in case you need to use it.

    This was an awesome find. The crew was so great we the kids. We ALL got pirate names and the entire experience was entirely unique and charming. Blackheart gets a special shout out for being extra awesome.

    Spent the day in fells point with the family ans embarked on a pirate adventure with the Urban Pirates. We had a great time ! The crew was very interactive and full of character. I'd recommend, if your looking for some family fun.

    This was loads of fun . Parking to get to the ship is horrible but well worth the great time . I did the byog adult cruise and will probably do it again tooxmms

    The Fearless ship

    I booked the 11:00 AM Family Adventure cruise with the Groupon deal ($61.50 for 4 people). There's not much to do in Baltimore so it seemed like it would be fun. We went there early to find parking since it's a bit difficult in the waterfront area. We parked in the residential area so it was free. The weather was great which I was worried about since they said rain or shine. The pirate guides were very nice and played a lot of games with the kids (and adults too). They give you name tags and temporary tattoos before you set sail. The water cannons and the pirate sailing by were a lot of fun. Overall, the whole cruise was entertaining and it was nice to sail around Inner Harbor on a sunny day. Maybe I would check out their adult cruise at night if I'm ever in the Baltimore area again.

    Arrrrgh!

    Cute if you have kids, or you are visiting the area. It is pirate ship that tours the harbor, and they have "real" pirates on the ship, and all the fun things that come with pirates. AAArrrghhh! There is also a gift shop, that sells what you need as a pirate. Swords, eye patches, pirate hats......and a lot of little kids smiles....that made our day!

    So this place should be on everybody's bucket list! It was awesome. A pirate cruise around the harbor... To see the beautiful lights and downtown is all a city girl could ask for. Shots of captain Morgan all night. Oh and the games we play.... The two hosts were amazing. You start off with getting a cool pirate name and a tattoo. By the way two weeks later my tattoo is still there. There are a few challenges... If you want to go with a group of people EVERYBODY has to get their ticket early. They fill up fast! It's so hard to coordinate with everyone. I had a credit from last year because my cruise was cancelled because if inclement weather and I had the HARDEST time re-scheduling because they give you a voucher that you can not Redeem online. You have to call, leave a message on the answering service and Pray that they get your message in time before they are booked. Once your book you are guaranteed an awesome time.

The tour we took was $25 per person. Picking up the tickets I preordered was easy. With boarding, no one told us when it was time to board though we were sitting at the dock, but we saw a group going and went along with them. Seating on the boat included an upper deck to enjoy the air; my family preferred the lower deck which was booth style. We found a booth together easily. There were large windows to look outside, but the narration was prerecorded and kind of quiet. Occasionally a crew member would chime in. The narration was always pointing out things on the starboard side, so keep that in mind. The interior seemed kind of outdated overall and most of the other people on the tour were on the elderly side, so it might cater more towards that audience. Overall, this was an okay tour of the harbor. The price was fine for what it was, but I wouldn't personally choose to do this tour again. I know there are other options that might be better through the company, so only speaking from my experience with what I described.

There really weren't any open areas to see the sunset, and the sun was already below the skyline when we were out on the water....The crew was great , but you get only 2 stars because, the sunset which was supposed to be the star of the show was really just a no show, and this was not because of the weather, it was because of the scheduling and the simple fact that where the boat traveled, there really was not an acceptable place to even view the sunset......

We had a small group of four and visited Attman's, Isabella's brick oven, La Tavola, and Osteria Da Amedeo. Food tours are great way of seeing what local life is like and skipping to the front of the line to taste a variety of dishes. We saw historic sites like the Lloyd street synagogue, Corned beef row, the Carroll Mansion, Reginald F. Lewis museum, and birthplace of the Star spangled banner flag. It was about a 3.5 hour walking tour and there were intermittent breaks to eat in restaurants. Before this tour I had no idea there was a 'Little Italy' or a 'Corned beef row' and how much history these places had from the restaurants started by immigrants in the 1800s. It also makes a difference having an enthusiastic group and getting to know everyone. This tour is highly recommended.

Don't know how to brew - NO PROBLEM Don't Have the supplies and equipment to Brew - NO PROBLEM Don't mind waiting 2 weeks for you Beer to ferment - THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU! So as I said our company offered employees a Home Brew experience as one of the options for our summer event this year, you can choose from 2 types of beer to brew, then you wait and about a week before the event a big box off supplies and equipment arrives at your door. The day before the event you get an e-mail with a zoom meeting invite for the actual event, along with some instructions so you are ready when the class starts. Our Instructors were Mike and Kevin, they meeting started on time and while the is some downtime while the water boils and the grains steep Mike and Kevin kept things interesting with helpful hints and tips, Brewing history, the reasons why you are going what you are doing at a certain time, what happens when you do certain things, why those things are good, bad or necessary and what to expect in the next two weeks while you are waiting for your beer to finish. There were some questions from our group and Mike answered them all, he was very knowledgeable about beer and the process of making beer. While I don't think I will become a master brewer and take up brewing as a full time hobby I did very much enjoy the experience and found it very informative and educational . If you like beer, or even if you are not a huge fan (yes we had one in our group and he enjoyed the class as well) I would highly recommend trying this type of event at least once, just so you know a little more about beer. Based on my experience with this home brew event I would be very willing to attend one of City Brew Tours in person events when things open back up again. (And when I'm in a city they serve) Highly recommended just for the fun of it or if you want to try brewing but are afraid to go it alone the first time. 5 Stars for the event 10 stars for Mike and Kevin

Leanna was a fantastic tour guide and she kept us entertained, laughing, and had lots of great stories to share. I've been on some ghost tours that were more history focused with less actual ghost stories, but I found this one to be a nice balance. Leanna shared some key history of the Fells Point area as we visited some historic sites like the grave of William Fell and the location of the Fell homestead. She also had plenty of stories about the hauntings and even specific buildings that experience the most paranormal activity. She even had a few personal stories of her and her past tour groups own encounters. The tour lasted about an hour and a half and was a pretty easy walking loop around Fell's Point that starts and ends at the harbor. Our group really enjoyed it and all of us agreed was one of the best ghost tours we've been on. Would highly recommend both Baltimore Ghost Tours and Leanna if you're looking for a great spooky season (or really any season) activity in Fells Point!
