About Besides driving, what is the easiest way to travel to Baltimore from Philly and back

Besides driving, what is the easiest way to travel to Baltimore from Philly and back? I don't want to drive!!
I am going on vacation with a friend who lives in Baltimore. We are flying from Baltimore. I really don't feel like driving there and I definitely won't feel like driving back after a week-long vacation. I live just outside of Philly. I'm not extremely familiar with public transportation and I don't want to impose on family or friends to take me to and from the train station, etc. Any suggestions/advice/tips would be GREATLY appreciated. Take care! I need to do this by myself. I drive but don't want to drive to Baltimore. Where can I park my car???? Other - United States - 4 Answers

Amtrak. Runs from Baltimore Penn Station to Philadelphia.
2 :
You can take Amtrak between those two cities and then use the bus or subway to get home. I think the Acela even runs between those two cities.
3 :
Definitely take the train! You could take a bus, but on the train you can get up and move around.
4 :
Public transportation is nothing to be afraid of. You can drive to Philly's 30th St. Station and park for a week - just be prepared to pay $100 or so. Take Amtrak train from Philly to BWI Airport station. Take shuttle bus from train station to airport terminal (for example, Southwest). Have your friends meet you at the Southwest terminal (or any other carrier you're using). More info at: http://www.bwiairport.com After your vacation, take the shuttle bus from the airport back to the BWI train station and take the Amtrak train back to Philly. Pay the $100 for parking and drive back to where you live. No imposing on your friends or family.

About Is there a cheap and easy way to travel between Baltimore and Washington DC

Is there a cheap and easy way to travel between Baltimore and Washington DC?
Specifically, on a Sunday? Not neccesarily as cheap as walking... hopefully easier as well Don't have a car, looking for cheap bus/train service recommendations Washington, D.C. - 12 Answers

Walking
2 :
I agree... Steven Wright says...".. everywhere is walking distance if you have the time..." : )
3 :
Leave the driving to Grayhound! It's cheap and easy.
4 :
amtrak train..just get the business class cab cause the coach is a little dirty for my taste.it takes a little longer..but hey you can buy beer and food on the train and its cheap.
5 :
Cycling may be the cheapest. Walking could also be cheap but you would possibly need to eat food on the way or stop somewhere overnight which would probably cost money.
6 :
bus
7 :
I live in Baltimore. The best way is to travel is by car, using I-95 South. Consult www.mapquest for directions and times etc!
8 :
There is AMtrak train service, there are Marc commuter trains, or you can take a bus. The Bus station in DC is just a few blocks north of Union Station (trains) just off North Capitol St. Your best bet on a Sunday is probably the bus or Amtrak.
9 :
the MARC train
10 :
take the Metro
11 :
On a Sunday, Greyhound and Amtrak are your only options. The train and bus both go to Union Station in D.C., where you can pick up the Metro from there.
12 :
M-F MARC TRAIN 10.00$ SAT-SUN AMTRACK/ GREYHOUND 35$

About which is the best way to travel from Baltimore to New York

Which is the best way to travel from Baltimore to New York?
I am going to take a trip to USA, and I will need to travel from Baltimore to New York, which is the best way to do it? airplane, bus, taxi ... etc. Other - United States - 4 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
taxi is the quickest
2 :
Airplane may be the best way because driving and the cost of gas is expensive.
3 :
My, what a bunch of bad answers. Amtrak runs frequent trains from Baltimore to New York. It's the fastest and most comfortable way to go. You can fly, but it's not any faster door to door. Buy your ticket ahead of time on the Amtrak web site to get a good price. Bolt Bus and Megabus (same company as Megabus UK) run buses that are cheaper, sometimes much cheaper, but slower and less comfortable than the train.. See their web sites for details.
4 :
Amtrak. Their Acela train is faster and more expensive than regular Amtrak. See the Amtrak website for details.

About what are the best options to travel from Baltimore to Washington DC

What are the best options to travel from Baltimore to Washington DC?
We are having a difficult time finding hotels in DC that aren't $10000000 for the Obama inauguration. I found a pretty good deal for air & hotel for Baltimore, but how much of a pain in the rear would that be to get to and from in general. Obviously, things will be amped up 1000 times during this time. I don't have a freakin' clue about this part of the country, so any thoughts are welcomed. :) You are the best KAL! :) *hugs* Washington, D.C. - 7 Answers

There's MARC and there's Metro, so you should be okay going in from Baltimore by rail. Take MARC to Union Station, and then take Metro to get more specifically where you need to go once you're in DC.
3 :
I don't have a clue about this part of the country either...except that I visited DC last summer...so I gave my cousin in VA a call...she's lived in or around DC most of her life. Basically you have two options for getting from Baltimore to DC...rent a car and drive it yourself or use public transportation (rail to get you to DC, subway from there). We drove in from VA, parked in Springfield VA and took the train the rest of the way in...and after witnessing the traffic when my cousin picked us up and dropped us off at the airport (Dulles) I'd take the Metro any day! Now what this might be like during inauguration neither of us have a clue...and this one could be especially crazy...I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that circus!
4 :
Try the MARC (Maryland Area Rail Commenter) train. You can not take Metro as it only goes half way to Baltimore. http://www.mtamaryland.com/services/marc/
5 :
Definitely stay away from DC central as rates and availability is almost gone as I hear it. Baltimore is a good choice. Also, try other "fringe" areas like Springfield, Fairfax, Reston, Alexandria in Virginia; and Annapolis, MD Columbia MD Rental car will be absolutely required. Be prepared to use Metro from the outer fringes, and be aware that MARC and Virginia Rail may not be operating on weekends or Inauguration because its considered a Federal Holiday. Metro will be a mess, but frankly, you will have no other choice in the matter as a million people will be anticipated or more. I've done it before...think Times Square on New Years for 24 hours straight. Those locations should work if you book now. Be sure to snag your rental car early too! They will soon be sold out too!
6 :
Take amtrak, greyhound or even the MARC..
7 :
The train (Amtrak) connects the 2. Schedule: http://www.amtrak.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Amtrak/Schedules_Page It's the Northeast train between NYC and Washington. I would recommend reservations. If you can stay near BWI, you can even ride the Metro in. http://www.wmata.com/maps/maps.cfm
