Welcome teachers, youth organizers and adult trip planners! Now is the time to plan your group's field trips, and we’re here to make your trip planning as easy as possible. At Greenspring Tours, we believe a field trip should be as enjoyable for teachers and group organizers as it is for students, chaperones, youth, and adult attendees. You select the date and designation; we’ll do the rest.

We have fifteen tour guides, use only approved transportation, and we are members of the National Tour Association (NTA), Baltimore Tourism Association (BTA) and Baltimore Area Convention & Visitor's Association (BACVA).
