Great Time - Bobby was our tour guide. Had a great time! We got to learn a lot about Salem and the trials in particular. He had a lot of “dad jokes” as he put it. He made the tour a great time. Hopefully when you book, you get Bobby.

Historical and spooky - Our guide April was a hoot and a half and a great storyteller. There were a couple of kids on our tour who were very curious and she was super patient and created a fun atmosphere for the group. Perfect spooky and historical Salem tour.

Davey is the best! - We had the privilege of accompanying Davey on his haunted night tour on the 17th. He was super exuberant and knowledgeable about the storied history of Salem. His passion for this city both in history and now was very engaging and we will highly recommend. If you are coming to town even for a night check out this tour and Davey!
