Additional Information
Join us in October for an intimate group tour, limited to just 19 participants✨: Picture being guided through Salem’s mystical heritage by your own private historian, witch, and local resident as you delve into the city’s enchanting past and participate in genuine spellcraft in a compact, witch coven-style gathering!
You will uncover the genuine backstory of Salem, starting with its native origins, transitioning through the strict Puritan era that precipitated the witch hunts, and culminating in the prosperous seafaring era followed by the emergence of the Spiritualist movement.
Also provided are natural, locally-gathered constituents for charm bags which you will receive as mementos during the journey. This is likewise a suitable choice for families with little ones and the restriction to 15 attendees ensures a much more engaging and personal encounter where you are encouraged to strike up conversation and pose any queries!

Very entertaining and educational! - We had a great time getting to know Dee and learning all about Salem's history. We enjoyed learning the true story of what happened and appreciating that Salem as a city has worked to acknowledge the tragedy and recognize the victims.
Learning more about modern witches and casting our own spells was informational and fun too! We had a great time and highly recommend this experience!

A perfect afternoon in Salem! - We loved our tour with Dee! She was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout our journey. The cherry on top was having the opportunity to do spells with her (she also provides the option to not participate and there is no pressure). How wonderful to learn from a real witch in Salem. Thank you for giving us the perfect afternoon!

Great tour and great guide! - Dee was a great guide. It was a small group (myself, my 13 year old and her 11 year old friend) and then just one other person we didn't know. We all had a great time and got to know a lot of info and witchy things! We are from nearby but the other person was from San Diego so it was really fun to see things through her eyes too. Highly recommend Dee and this tour

Fantastic tour full of interesting information and fun - What a great tour!
All the location and tour details were communicated well with all the necessary information.
Dee was a fantastic guide who gave a great deal of detailed information about the history surrounding Salem, the witch trials and witchcraft.
We all took part in spells (no pressure if you didn't want to take part) and they were really interesting and not what you may expect. You also get to keep a souvenir of the spells (I won't spoil it).
There was plenty of opportunity to ask questions and Dee was engaging and enthusiastic and we learnt so many new things, not just about witches but board games and trade amongst other things.
I am so glad I booked this tour and would say it's a "must" if you are in the Salem / Boston area and it was great value for money.
