A first of its kind tour of Salem! Start by joining us for an hour long walking tour through Salem’s varied history. Learn about the infamous Witchcraft Trials of 1692, Crime and Punishment, our part in the beginnings of the Revolutionary War, and Murder and Betrayal among Salem’s elite. Then board our chartered vessel, “The Naumkeag” provided by Essex Heritage, for a unique view of Salem’s harborfront by sea, and hear stories from Salem’s Golden Age of Sail, including our famous Nathaniels; Hawthorne and Bowditch, who revolutionized literature and navigation, and how Salem was connected to the first and last Captains hanged for Piracy in America!

If bad weather prevents us from doing the harbor tour, we will adjust the tour to a two hour walking tour and provide a partial refund, or guests may choose to reschedule.
