Great tour….informative and entertaining. Easily worth the time and price. Tour guide Sarah was excellent….clearly very knowledgeable and engaging. She offered a real glimpse of the times and events that led to the witch trials…and how the lessons learned might apply today! Not the cheesy stuff that you might expect.

Sarah is so incredibly knowledgeable about this town's history & paints a beautiful (albeit sad) picture for her audience. We passed by & overheard a number of tours in progress while exploring around town, & none compared to this one by far. I highly recommend this tour to anyone intending to further their knowledge about the witch trials. This is not just spook spook ghost stories. She takes you back to the time & tells you a story that you will not soon forget whether you're already familiar or completely green to the subject. She put my husband on trial for witchcraft. His life was spared. All in all, we had a blast, learned new things, & we'd do it again.
