Thomas and Satan Rule - Fantastic tour. Thomas is an informative and entertaining guide. His dog Satan was also on hand to assist. Thomas offered a lot of context for the Salem witch trials. We learned not just the "what," but the "how" and the "why." Highly recommend this tour.

Well worth the money! - What we loved most about this tour is the historical truth provided. A sense of what it was really like for people as the area was established. Our guide/owner was down to earth and a character. He loves what he does and wants to share his passion with others. His dog was a blast as well!

History and fun! - My daughters and I all thought this was the best tour we took while in Salem. I loved that it was focused on history. Skip the ghost tours and go on this one.

Five stars for real history - Fact-based historical tour with an appropriately modern lens. Thomas was awesome, he knew his stuff and made the presentation very enjoyable. Even though he joked he was the least professional tour guide because he swears and tells it like it is, I actually found his tour guide manner to be quite professional and experienced. Our tour was co-hosted by Thomas's adorable dog Satan which made the tour next level. Would highly recommend if you're looking for history, not ghost stories, and if you don't mind some appropriately placed swear words ... I'd take my school-aged kid on the tour but it isn't for people who are easily offended.

Best tour in Salem! - My 2nd time attending Thomas’ tour and it was just as entertaining and educational as the first! Every time either myself or someone else plans their first trip to Boston I ALWAYS recommend this tour to really get a lovely impression of Salem and a fun tour guide you won’t get anywhere else (also I adore little Satan the Dog)

Awesome educational tour. - Thomas was a great guide. Learned a lot of things from him. Learned that some of what we knew about incidents in Salem about the witch trials are misconceptions. Learned about the atrocities of the witch trials because of religion and greed.

The Best Tour of Salem! - We had a really great time and learned so much while on the tour with Tom and Satan! The tour group size was perfect and we could hear him all the time. The fee was completely reasonable for an excellent experience. The time it took was perfect and we were able to go back afterwards to find the places we especially enjoyed. Tom is very passionate about historical accuracy and about genuinely explaining his beliefs in a succinct and fun way. Highly recommend!
