Great family friendly ghost tour - John was a great storyteller and made even my youngest family member feel comfortable during our tour. We had lots of fun, got just enough spooky, and learned a lot about Salem.

Best tour around - I gotta say it was so much fun and very interesting. The tour guide was fantastic. I forgot her name but she was a short spunky gal. Sorry for forgetting her name. She was so much fun and balls out. We did do the adult only tour so no kiddies . I always believed there is a life force after death but had no proof, After I got home and looked at the pics I couldnt believe what I saw. It was pitch black dark out in the cemetery my I phone made it lighter but when I saw my wife standing there and there was a orb over her it totally freaked me out, again it was pitch black out there. Second was on a house, I took two pics right after one another just because I didnt know which would come out better. If you notice on the right side or the roof eve you will notice a shadow. Trust me there was no shadow when I took that pic. Some might say that it was from a light, NOPE something was there. I didnt see it with my eye but the camera caught it. Totally cool. P.S. we went on Holloween so much fun.

Perfect girls trip! - This trip was a birthday gift for my daughter, who turned 40 in July…she always wanted to go to Salem for Halloween. There were 4 of us, my cousin and her daughter, and me and my daughter. This was my second visit, and boy have things changed in 20 years! We flew into Boston and took the subway and train to our AirBNB, located in Beverly. The transportation system was very easy to navigate. Our AirBNB exactly as it appeared on the website, and perfectly located…within a 5 minute walk to the train depot. We took the VERY short and inexpensive train ride into Salem. The costs for the four of us, one-way, was under $10….the ride back was no charge😊 We had perfect weather! Walking around beautiful Salem in the fall was amazing…the decorations…the costumes. We did take 3 walking tours…too many. All of the walking tours went to the same places. The BEST was the Bewitched Walking Tour of Salem…tour guide Sarah was very informative and entertaining. We were there for 2 days, which is plenty of time to visit Salem. If we were there longer, I would’ve liked to visit more of the surrounding areas. On a negative note, we had ONE bad experience at ONE restaurant….they were out of many things, and the person who served us our food had an “Ugly” attitude. When I mentioned it to our waitress, she tried to justify the attitude by saying things like, “ We people up north are more harsh than you.” “You came at the end of the season.” By this time, we get a little stressed with the tourists.” But, like I said, that was the ONLY bad experience. Everyone else was very courteous and helpful. Just remember, if you go during the month of October, it gets very busy, and you may get someone who is a little stressed with the tourists😂

Adults Only Tour with the Reverend - The tour was even better than expected. Our tour guide was top notch and was extremely knowledgeable, funny PLUS knows how to entertain the crowd. Everyone in our group of 30 had a great time and I would give the Reverend an A++++++ . Keep in mind this is an adults only tour and adult language is used so don’t be a tight a$$ about it. But if you want to have a great time and hangout with a cool ass tour guide book this!

Very disappointed - We attended this tour tonight and are very disappointed. Our tour guide did not share much information. He stated “ I don’t know” and “google it” many times during the tour. He talked more about the short videos he produced rather than the history of Salem. We have attended other Ghost City Tours in other locations and had a much better experience.
