Our public walking tours can pose challenges for participants with mobility and accessibility concerns. Tours are 90 minutes long and about one mile in length. Each participant must be able to complete the one-mile tour within 90 minutes, providing for frequent stops to view sites and for information from the tour guide. As Salem is a historical city, there are narrow and uneven sidewalks, bricks, cobblestones, and stairs. During events and festivals (and particularly October), with crowds and street vendors, the streets can become difficult to navigate.

Traffic and parking can be very difficult and October is much worse with "" trafLA Levelfic. Give yourself extra time to get here and park no matter what your GPS is telling you.

Our guide was knowledgeable and stuck to history which was exactly what we wanted. She didn’t read from a script and wasn’t there to entertain us (like some other guides we passed). For that I was greatly appreciative. However, sometimes she didn’t explain things as clearly as would have been helpful. I think she assumed we knew things that we did not. When she would ask if anyone had any questions, I didn’t understand enough to know how to formulate a question. I left with more knowledge about the witch trials than before I began, which was great. However, I would have liked a more clear storyline.
Disappointing experience

For the price, we expected a bit more from this experience. Felt like we were stopping in random places and then being overwhelmed with unorganized information about soooo many people. Wish that the information had been more organized and unique. The guide was awkward and kept pausing for a reaction when didn’t have one to give. We will try a different tour next time.
Definitely recommend

I was hoping this would be an incredible tour, providing a timeline and history so we had a better understanding of the events. Our guide was awful. She was all over the place and terribly confusing to the point that we had to do our own research afterwards to understand what happened. There was too much talking, the locations we went to had no real connection...stood in parking lots most times...and for the price I would have expected more. We did a tour in Boston which was fantatic...mostly because of our guide. This guide said she had been doing this for 8 years and honestly it felt more like 8 days. Waste of money!
Great tour

Hank was great. Loved the tour and learning about the backstories. The cemetery was my favorite part. I could tell she really cared about the people behind the stories.
Experience of reflection and awareness

This was exactly what we hoped. Guide was knowledgeable and fun. She worked around all the noise of the Sunday traffic and we had a good time and learned a lot about the area.
