Black Cat Historical Day Tour

Overview

Our daytime historic tour is a story of Pirates and Puritans, Witchcraft and War. We travel around the city of Salem and share the tales of its amazing history. From its humble beginnings as a city founded on the idea of peace for all, to the site of the largest incident of witchcraft hysteria in the modern world, learn how it became one of the biggest shipping ports in America, played host to some of the most famous authors of all time, and learn some of the biggest secrets this city has to offer!

Our daytime walking tour lasts about an hour and forty five minutes, and covers a mile's worth of the downtown area. It is an easy walk, but we suggest comfortable shoes and clothing to match the season. Our tours are unscripted, and can be customized to every group's particular areas of interest!

We attended the Historical Day Tour on October 12, 2019. The tour was very well organized, easy to find the starting location and the tour guide was excellent. Very easy to hear (he was wearing a microphone) and understand. The tour was an hour and a half and was easy to walk. This is well worth $16.00. We bought our tickets in advance because October is a VERY busy month in Salem. Easy online ordering and they found our reservation very quickly when we arrived. I would highly recommend this tour.

We had a great time on our tour. Daniel was great. He was informative and interesting. I definitely suggest taking the tour at night. That made it just a bit more spooky.

Hands down 10/10! My wife and I completed the "Ghostly Night Tour" and it did not disappoint! Daniel, our tour guide, was absolutely phenomenal. We could both tell right away that he was super knowledgeable and passionate about the experience he was sharing with the entire group. We had an absolute blast learning about the haunted happenings and history of Salem and this tour did a great job of covering everything we wanted to know. Keep in mind that you will obviously be on your feet and outside the entire time so plan accordingly for the weather; you won't walk a ton but you will hit all of the important places. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Salem. I promise that you will not be disappointed. Remember your camera and when crossing the street "look right, look left, alonze!"
