Knowledgeable and funny - Tom was amazing! He has such a full noggin full of knowledge about Salem, but don’t expect a ghost story. You’ll get the deep dark side of the history of Salem and where things truly took place. The good the bad and the ugly highly recommend.

THE BEST walking tour experience even when it was chilly and rainy. Do it! Highly recommended - There is a reason why you are seeing 5 star reviews through and through on every ratings website. We were in Salem on Oct 7th 2024 and booked this tour for 12:00 Noon slot. It was cold and rainy and yet you are seeing that I have given 5 ***** ratings for this walking tour. The most important reason - our tour guide Tom. He made walking in New England's cold rainy day in Fall extremely funny, infomative and full of laughter. Second reason - We were told history not ghost stories. Tom is an historian and his narrations were based of facts, history and common sense logic. I highly recommend you take this tour.

Best historic tour of Salem! - I booked this activity solo and coming off of the heels of a very disappointing ghost tour the previous night, I can confidently say this is one of the best tours I've been on. Tom is so knowledgeable and passionate about what he talks about, and really gives a ton of interesting information and little known history while also keeping things extremely fun and entertaining. Even after having lost his voice with the October crowds, he was so excited to tell us about the city and the nuances of its history and delivered an effortlessly fun experience. I also really appreciated that this was NOT a ghost tour and focused a lot on the history of Salem and the parts of it that aren't generally told or focused on. Another thing I really appreciated was the flexibility as I had originally booked the 12pm tour but there was a hiccup with the train schedule from Boston that meant I didn't arrive in Salem until well after that and was really bummed I had missed the tour, so I sent a message and was rescheduled to the 8pm tour no problem. I would 100% do it all over again.

Great Tour - Thomas was an excellent tour guide - lively, and great historical information. Really contextualized Salem’s history. Will definitely recommend for others visiting!

Funny and entertaining - Tour was awesome (even in the rain) guide was funny and knowledgeable, for sure a unique experience relative to other Salem tours!

Great - Cool and educational experience while walking and getting to see Salem with someone who knows their stuff!

Open your mind to new views - Amazing tour with the perfect guide. Perfect blend of stories/history/humor. We were all laughing before we started!

Take the tour! - Honestly one of the most down to earth historians I have ever met! The humor mixed in was the icing on the cake! I would recommend this to anyone!

Like walking around Salem with a friend…. Who knows everything about Salem - Literally the best tour in Salem. Tom is enthusiastic, funny, knows everything, and can break it down and make it easy to understand. Taking his tour is like getting the inside scoop on the town and its history. It’s refreshing to get a tour that isn’t fake tourist nonsense.

Pure entertainment - October 5 2024 - Tour guide Tom Shown up on time Full of energy , pure entertainment, sick twisted outgoing personality during the tour. He was educated , short sweet and straight to the facts. He had our group laughing and engaged during our tour and I would highly recommend this.
