Great time! - We had a great time exploring the beautiful streets of Salem and learning about the Salem witch trials and the town’s famous hauntings. The tour was the perfect mix of spooky fun and fascinating history. Our guide, Jeff, was fantastic—he kept everyone engaged from start to finish and made the experience enjoyable for all ages. We had kids and adults in our group, and Jeff managed to keep everyone entertained and interested throughout. Highly recommend this tour!

Great time had by all - It was absolutely worth the price! Jeff was so knowledgeable and very entertaining. I would recommend him to anyone. It’s great for friends and especially for locals who so often don’t know the smaller details of Salem’s history. It was about 90 minutes which was just right. Any longer and it may have been difficult for some of our party to complete. I wouldn’t change a thing. And I would definitely want to have Jeff as my tour guide again!

Cash Grab - Jeff our guide was knowledgeable and interesting. However I booked an 8:00 tour that said 12 and over - there was many little kids and strollers that distracted from the vibe . Also we didn’t visit Witch House or house of 7 Gables . We visit many “ former sites of.” Now new buildings. I was disappointed in that … one more thing . When we checked in at Town Hakl we were told to wait with this large group and “ the guides would come and split groups up..” 1 guide arrived and took no lie 40-50 of us walking . Thats a cash grab man . Last year I had a different tour more intimate and cheaper. So the 3 stars are for Jeff the guide only . Would not recommend your to others.
