Why this plan works
The 3 stops cover about 0.9 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Baltimore instead of crossing town between them. Baltimore Soundstage is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Tagliata — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to solo, couples, and adults who want a planned Baltimore outing without improvising between stops.
