Entertaining! - The tour guide is fun, engaging, and very entertaining. We loved the history lessons around the town. I wasn’t sure my 6 year old would enjoy it, but she loved it!

Great Family good times - We had an amazing time on the Salem Kid tour! The entire experience was not only outstanding but also incredibly informative. Booking the tour was a breeze, making the process stress-free from the start. Our guide, Alicia, was absolutely fantastic. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and made the history of Salem come alive for both adults and kids. Alicia was especially great with our kids' questions, answering them with patience and enthusiasm. It's clear she has a passion for what she does, and it made the tour even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a family-friendly and educational tour in Salem, I highly recommend this one. It was a highlight of our trip! Jay K

Best Tour In Salem - Our family was in Boston for a long weekend and thought it would be fun to take our kiddos to Salem. Knowing our seven-year-old would not like normal history or scary Salem tours, we researched and found Salem Kids Tours. It was AMAZING!!! We did numerous VIP tours throughout Boston this week and this was by far the best tour. Alicia was entertaining, informative, and funny. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Alicia! We had a blast!

No kitsch here, just age-appropriate history lesson - Really enjoyed it. The guide was clearly knowledgeable and did a great job tailoring it to kids. A good option if you want your child to learn about the real history of Salem in an age-appropriate way. No kitsch here!

Great experience for elementary kids - Our tour guide was friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the area. She was engaging to my 6 and 9 year old sons who still bring up things they learned. The tour was nice and walkable and I learned some things too!
