This is advertised as the “best ghost tour” in Salem - had nothing to do with ghosts and focused on the witch trials. And, the “facts” shared during the tour were inaccurate- we have done several witch trial tours before and have conducted our own research - this tour provides false details. Don’t waste your time.

We have been on quite a few Salem tours and our tour guide did a great job of keeping the group entertained. One of the better tours we've been on.

There was a lot of repetition. He kept saying the same thing over again. I enjoyed the different sites.
