We loved it!! It's high enough for you to get some lovely photos of the Inner harbor, but not so high that you feel nauseous. I really don't like heights, but the elevator ride was very smooth and the observation level at was spacious & comfortable. There was enough room that you could stay back from the windows if you... more

Not quite as tall as some of the surrounding buildings, but still an excellent view of the Inner Harbor and city of Baltimore. Start your visit here to get an idea of the layout. Some excellent views of the area, but they could have used some window cleaning on one side of the building. No lines, no waiting on June... more

$5/person is a bit steep to me to ride an elevator up 27 floors. I've stayed in hotels on higher floors than that. A lot. The view is really nice - I always love to see cities from above, it's a great way to orientate yourself - but come on. Spent about 10 minutes up there. Can't imagine staying longer,... more

My family visited on a recent weekday and found this to be a good side trip in the Inner Harbor. Make sure to visit on a clear and sunny day or obviously you will see nothing. And make sure to visit baltimore.org and they sometimes have BOGO coupons. You get a good 360 degree view of everything around the Inner... more

I visited the World Trade Center Observatory on a recent trip to Baltimore. Make sure you visit on a clear, beautiful day other than on a rainy day or it'll ruin your view! Spectacular panoramic view of the harbor, well worth the money. After purchasing your tickets and taking a quick elevator ride, you'll make it to the 28th floor... more

Going up to the observation level at the World Trade Center is the best way to get an overview of Baltimore. From each of the five sides you can see many of the tourist attractions in the city. The volunteers that answer questions are very knowledgeable and helpful. Just make sure you time it right so that there are not... more

I can't believe no one has written a review on Top of the world. It is a very tall office building on the inner harbor, but the 27th floor is all open with views all the way around. It is shaped lile a pentagon, (5 sided) $5.00 will get you in and worth the price. They also have detailed real... more
