Baltimore's Cruise ship Tour-shuttle service

Ira with “I Love Baltimore” tours was wonderful. His knowledge of the Baltimore history was very impressive and enlightening. Our time spend with him was very enjoyable.

Not so comfortable , too many people (9) and bags in a small van, especially when you just got off the 2 weeks cruise, every person had more than one carry on.and people are "BIG"

This was a good way to get a birds iview of Baltimore. Our guide Ira was knowledgeable and did a great job putting out the various sites.

They picked us up at the cruise terminal on time. The driver called a he was pulling up to the area to give us warning he was coming. After getting picked up we went to the visitor center to pick up others. We had an opportunity to walk around the boardwalk for about 20 minutes. Then we got into a van and drove around the city with Mike telling us what there was to see. It was a great overall view of the city. The only stop we had was st Fort McHenry to watch a short video. We then headed back to the visitor center and another van took us to the airport. It was very interesting. I only wish that there would of been a little more time for 1-2 more stops but i would recommend this for a visitor to get a sense of Baltimore.

We booked this tour for after our cruise because of needing something to before our flight home. We were extremely happy we did!! Excellent service and very knowledgeable tour guide at a very reasonable rate! Highly recommend!

Ira, our guide, gave an excellent overview of the many neighborhoods of Baltimore and the history behind each one. This was one of the best tours I've been on. We were picked up at the cruise port before the tour and dropped off at the airport after. Everything was wonderful.

The people at I Love Baltimore were courteous and responsive. When we had a flight schedule change they offered to help.

Excellent experience! Mr. Cunningham was a great tour guide with lots of knowledge & interesting facts about Baltimore's culture & history. He made sure my family enjoyed the experience... even though the weather wasn't the best. Thank you!!

The personal tour was great. Received a lot of good history information about Baltimore and the area.

It was great to see the Ft. McHenry show a second time, and we enjoyed the drive around Balitmore, a beautiful and unique city. Ira was an excellent guide and a fountain of historical information.

Shuttle was precisely on time and experienced very good communication with the entirely professional driver. Greatly enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about Baltimore.

We needed to be picked up from the Port of Baltimore and taken to BWI airport. Unfortunately our cruise ship was an hour late returning to port. Fortunately that was not a problem for our shuttle pickup. As soon as we got off the ship, our driver was there waiting and it was a very short trip to the airport.

Used shuttle to both pier and back to airport. Very timely and overall smooth process, would highly recommend!

We had time to kill before our flight back to CA after we left our cruise ship in the Baltimore port. Googled and found this family owned business that would take us on a tour of the town and drop us at the airport.

Ira Jr. did a fantastic job using humor and multi media to give us a historical tour of the neighborhood. He covered interesting facts and trivia.

Ira's personal observations were witty and informative.
Ira Sr. should be proud of his son. He does a fine job of providing a fun Baltimore experience.

We took this tour the morning of our cruise.
Ira picked us up right on time outside of our hotel near the Inner Harbor. (Turns out we were the only 2 passengers).
What followed was a 90 minute tour of some of Baltimore's historic neighborhoods.
The tour commentary was a mix of pre-recorded observations and personal insights/stories from Ira. Those personal insights were the highlight of the tour! We learned and saw so much and there wasn't a question that he wasn't willing to answer.
At the end of the tour, we were dropped off right at the port.
If you're looking for a way to catch a glimpse of Baltimore and see the city through the eyes of a local instead of just treating this city as an embarkation port, this is the way to go.

My family and I booked a cruise on the Grandeur of the Seas (Royal Caribbean) and were surprised to find that they did not offer a tour of Baltimore. Since we had a afternoon flight home and had to disembark in the early morning, we were hoping to find a tour/transfer package that would drop us off at the airport (BWI). I found some very positive comments on Tripadvisor about I Love Baltimore Personal Tours and emailed Ira Cunningham, the owner, for information. Ira replied to very quickly, leading to a phone call when I booked the tour/transfer for August 17th. After thinking about how impressive his customer service was, I texted him back to see if he could pick us up at BWI and take us to our hotel (we flew to Baltimore the day before the cruise), and to pick us up from the hotel the next morning and take us to the cruise terminal. Ira responded quickly, again with very reasonable rates, and I booked these transfers with him as well. I received a reminder confirmation a couple of days before we left home. Once we landed and had our luggage, I texted Ira to let him know we had arrived and our location. He responded almost immediately and picked us up on time at the airport at the baggage claim area we were at. Ira is super nice, timely, and very knowledgeable...especially about Baltimore! His son, Ira Jr., works with him and they were more than helpful getting us and our luggage in and out of the van. They even brought our luggage into the hotel during a downpour! They were also right on-time picking us up the next morning and dropped us off as close to the ship as they were allowed. On our return, we disembarked earlier than expected. No problem! I texted Ira to tell him, and he replied within a few minutes to say that he would be there 15-30 minutes earlier than we agreed, cutting our wait time in half!! Awesome customer service! Ira had a couple of welcome bags prepared for us, and bottled water....both unexpected. This was a very nice and well-received gesture as we were about to embark on a historical tour about 2.5 hours long. As usual, Ira demonstrated his vast knowledge of Baltimore and its history. We learned and saw so much. Ira even adjusted his normal tour route so we could see more of the Johns Hopkins Medical School before taking us to the airport. I Love Baltimore Personal Tours provided my family an educational and entertaining alternative to sitting in the airport most of the day, and we were all impressed with the love he has for his city, his organization, and his customer service. Great job!!
