5.00Bobby’s tour was not only educational and fun, but also the perfect way to end a long day exploring Salem. He was witty, engaging, and told real stories with an authentic voice that captured both the sorrow of the past and the transformation the city has undergone through the years. It was especially exciting to learn about the areas known for their paranormal activity, paired with the true histories and tragedies that gave rise to those legends. The experience was immersive, meaningful, and unforgettable. Well worth the price!
Sebastian gave an awesome tour!
