Get educated! - If you do ANY tour in Salem, no matter the time of year, make it this one! Thomas is witty, personable, and most importantly, brimming with historical knowledge about Salem, and the broader social and cultural context in which the events of the ever-famous witch trials occurred. His dissection of how the dark stain of the Puritan witch trials eventually resulted in the transformation of Salem into the Witch City of today was insightful and worth the cost of admission itself. He's also really really funny!

Historically accurate and interesting! - Thomas is very knowledgeable and a friendly guide, who welcomes all types of questions! I enjoyed learning about the history of Salem without fluff and getting his recommendations on what to see in town. Full 5 stars also for his adorable dog!

Revealing the people of the witch trials, the victims and the evil Puritans. - Thomas and Satan were amazing guides! It was the exact tour I wanted giving the true stories behind the popular narrative of the witch trials. Except for the wind, it was a perfect tour. Hail Satan!!!

Hail yeah! - Tour was a goddamn hoot! Very informative without all the make believe paranormal nonsense. It was also nice to have Satan join the fun. Highly recommend for skeptics!

All hail Satan (the dog) - Excellent tour of Salem! The history lessons centered in actual events and not ghost stories was great. Thomas's emphasis on misogyny and racism was such a welcomed and very important part of the discussion that is often overlooked. His comedic timing was great too and a nice relief from the very heavy topics discussed. Satan was so sweet and added to the overall greatness of the tour. Touring with other like minded individuals made it all the better. I could not recommend this tour enough.

Lively and historical - Thomas was so cool! His tour was informative, historically accurate, with just a hint of humour that kept things lively and entertaining. He didn’t glaze over any historical accuracies in favour of glorified, fake stories. He was truthful to the material and overall very knowledgeable about the town and its history. Satan the dog was also a great touch!
