Hammond-Harwood House in Annapolis — view 2
The Hammond-Harwood House is a striking example of colonial architecture in Annapolis, designed in 1774 by the prominent architect William Buckland for a prosperous planter, Matthias Hammond. Characterized by its elegant proportions and intricate detailing, the house showcases a blend of Palladian and Georgian styles, with a notable cupola and a grand reception room adorned with original furnishings. Visitors can explore the house's period rooms and gardens, which reflect the lifestyle of the 18th-century gentry. The best time to visit is during spring or fall when the garden is in full bloom. The house is located near the Maryland State House, allowing for an easy exploration of the historic district.

    Two-hour walking tour covering Annapolis' harbor, Georgian mansions, and the Maryland State House, led by an engaging guide with personal stories.

    My wife and I arranged a private walking tour with Michael, which turned out to be the best part of our visit to Annapolis. The outstanding reviews are accurate! His tour of the Naval Academy and historic downtown was a wonderful mix of history, interesting facts, and enjoyment. Michael is an excellent guide, and we strongly suggest him to anyone coming to Annapolis for the first time.Q7841VKjamesw on the Historic walking tour of Annapolis' harbor and colonial downtown tour

    I attempted to secure this tour ahead of time, but it expired. It seems you must use it within 24 hours of booking, which wasn't mentioned anywhere. I'm very disappointed and cannot recommend this tour.Elizabeyh_F on the Annapolis self-guided audio walking tour tour
