The Preservation Society hosts five different walking tours in Baltimore. They include visits to the Robert Long house and garden, secrets of the seaport, fathom of the bowl and an authentic ghost walk. The Robert Long tour visits the home and garden of Baltimore's longest living resident. Visitors on the seaport tour learn about the lives of 18th century mariners, their homes and businesses. Fathom of the bowl takes place in the Time and Tide Theater where visitors experience what parties and taverns were like in this 18th century seaport. Living history characters escort visitors through Fell's Point's most haunted sites during the authentic ghost walk.
