Best Historically Informative Tour

5.00We went on three different walking tours and this tour was the most historically informative. We had a great tour guide and learned a lot about the history of Salem. Compared to other tours, this one had a somewhat confusing meetup location of "Not Ya Mama's Vegan Cafe" which was in the mall, but the actual location was outside the mall on the opposite side.
Fun and informative tour of Salem

5.00An awesome way to learn about Salem! Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens all agreed that the tour and our guide Alina exceeded expectations. We learned all about the witch trials- but also so many other interesting historical and cultural facts about Salem. Alina’s love for the city really shone though and helped us appreciate this gorgeous and remarkable place.
