Snowy day in Salem - I forgot the tour guides name but there were only 2 of us in the group. That made it feel a lot more personal because we could ask questions and it didn’t hold the whole group up. It was very interesting to hear about the founding and history of Salem. If you don’t have a lot of time this is the perfect tour! Our guide was pretty cool. Thanks again!

After dinner stroll to learn about the city - Our guide was a Salem native, born and raised and he gave us an honest local perspective on the city, past present and future. He told us the complete history of the witch situation but also the other things that are important to know about the history of Salem.

Great tour - Great tour - Chris was a knowledgeable and enjoyable guide and his personal connections to the Salem witch trials made the tour even more interesting. On an absolutely Arctic day we appreciated the one hour length of the tour, enough time to learn a lot but not too long to freeze our toes off. Highly recommend!

Amazing tour through Salem with Misha - I really enjoyed the Salem Witch Tour and thought it was a fantastic way to experience the city’s history at night. Misha was an excellent guide—engaging, knowledgeable, and great at bringing the stories of Salem to life with an added great sense of humour. The tour balanced historical facts with local legends well, making it both informative and entertaining. Overall, it was a memorable experience and a great introduction to Salem’s history, especially with such a strong guide leading the tour.
