Kids Exploring Salem - Alicia is a wonderful guide! Her experience as an educator directly translates to her ability to keep children entertained and engaged. The one hour tour explains how Salem became famous for Witchcraft. You will explore various landmarks and how the city has changed over time.

Just what we were hoping for! - Perfect level and engagement for the kids, plus I learned a lot too! Tour guide is a sixth grade teacher and I kept thinking how lucky her students are, she's such a great storyteller!

Excellent! 11 out of 10 - Tour guide clearly had experience talking with kids. Stories were entertaining, and as parents we learned some things too. Turns out there's more to Salem history than just the witch trials. Tour lasted about 70-75 minutes and was well worth it.

Highly recommend - Our tour with David was fabulous. He was not only accommodating for our family (young kids and all), but he has a wealth of knowledge about Salem’s history. I would highly recommend the tour of Salem - and David as your guide!

Highlight of our visit to Salem - Last year we did the Spooky tour so decided to do the History tour this year and both tours are AMAZING!! My sons are 10 and 12 years old and both years the tours were the highlight of our visit. Lots of interesting facts and the tour guided Ms Alicia and John were wonderful and kept everyone engaged. Each tour lasts 1 hour that flies by!!

Interesting & Fun! - John was interesting and silly, the perfect combo to keep young kids’ attention. The tour focused on the history of Salem and was not scary for youngsters! Theme of kids making a difference throughout history—chef’s kiss!

Entertaining! - The tour guide is fun, engaging, and very entertaining. We loved the history lessons around the town. I wasn’t sure my 6 year old would enjoy it, but she loved it!

Great Family good times - We had an amazing time on the Salem Kid tour! The entire experience was not only outstanding but also incredibly informative. Booking the tour was a breeze, making the process stress-free from the start. Our guide, Alicia, was absolutely fantastic. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and made the history of Salem come alive for both adults and kids. Alicia was especially great with our kids' questions, answering them with patience and enthusiasm. It's clear she has a passion for what she does, and it made the tour even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a family-friendly and educational tour in Salem, I highly recommend this one. It was a highlight of our trip! Jay K
