5.00A really great walk that covers locations used in Hocus Pocus with a sprinkling of other Salem lore. I really enjoyed it but would draw out an emphasis on the walking element of this tour. The last location in particular is quite a distance. I enjoyed that though as I got to see people’s houses decorated for Halloween but at other times of year it may not be so interesting. But I’d say knowing that it is worth it so long as you’re happy walking. Cass was a really great tour guide. Good insight and great energy. She was really happy to take people’s photos at the locations which was much appreciated. Great company and so helpful. A wonderful guide. You get a treat at the end so it’s worth the long walk. With Salem having so many sweet treats to enjoy I appreciated getting my steps in on this walk. Great fun!

5.00Michael was knowledgeable, entertaining, and patient with the tour. He explained everything in detail and was passionate about the topic. It is easy to see that he loves Salem. He even gave us a great lunch recommendation after we told him what our plans were for after the tour. I would highly recommend Michael for your next Salem tour.

5.00This was a lovely tour. Grace was amazing! Super funny and a great photographer! Obviously, this is a very long walking tour, but had adequate stops and commentary. If you’re not a walker, this is not for you. But I enjoy walking, so I really loved it!
Best Tour in Salem! (especially if Topher is your guide)
