"Witch Trials" Walking Tour - Steven was a great tour guide, very informative and very funny! Our tour was during Halloweekend and even though Salem was packed, it felt very personal and special. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about this important piece of Salem's history.

Party City Torch! - The man with the green torch (from party city) was very knowledgeable and very outgoing. He was very interactive with the group, which made it fun. My wife and I learned a lot while having a blast. We definitely will be back.

Awful. The guide was a no-show so I got no experience that I paid for. - This is a scam. No one showed up to lead the tour and there was zero information about any alternative location or details given. I tried calling and I just got an automated robocall. I need a refund.

Very upsetting - The witch house was closed! We walked there ourselves. The tour description was deceiving. We saw others at a tour before us complaining about how the house was closed. We tried to cancel and wouldn’t reimburse.they wanted to give us a different day, we are from Long Island!! Our daughter’s sweet 16 trip!! Disappointing
