I am bringing my mom to her Aunts 95th bday next week and we have a few extra days to do things.

Because my mom may not have many more trips left, I am trying to find really nice things to do that spoil her to an extent.

Have a few private tours set up and dinner at the Charleston. And a helicopter tour.

But also looking for other suggestions.

We like tasting menus. and Sushi.
Looking for maybe an awesome day spa.
Maybe a scenic driving route or great place to visit outdoors.

I could not find any sailing or boat tours that were going to be open yet. But maybe I missed something :)

Any and all ideas would be appreciated. :)

Sherwood Gardens might be a good option for an outdoor thing. The tulips probably won't be out quite yet, but there will be other things blooming.

If it's rainy, you could also visit Rawlings Conservatory in Druid Hill Park. It's a beautiful building, with a 19th century glass palm house. There is a suggested donation of $5/person. I like to go there when it's overcast to get a little sunlight without getting dripped on.

Idk if the spa at the Four Seasons downtown is in scope, but there are great water views there and it comes highly recommended

It’s not really a boat tour, but if you’re here during the week, the Harbor Connector is a free commuter water taxi that goes across the harbor. The Fells Point to Tide Point/Locust Point route has great views of the harbor.

Lake Roland Park and Druid Hill Park are both nice and have parking. Former has quite a narrow driving route compared to the latter.

Yama sushi (not high end per se), which is fabulous is near DHP. They have a great lunch special. There’s Cylburn Arboretum near by as well.

For spas check out the Ivy Hotel, Art of Balance, and the Four Seasons.

Azumi has an Omakase. It’s $125 per person which isn’t crazy.

Sizka is my favorite sushi in the city, they do both lunch and dinner omakase. BYOB.

V-NO Wine Bar in Fells has wines by the glass or bottle, and small plates. They have tables outside that a nice to sit at. They also have tasting events that sometimes occur on a cruise around the harbor that might be worth checking out.
