Had a great time! The gentleman had a lot of historical knowledge! And the trick at the end was great

As a Salem resident and one-man show, Rory O'Brien knows the back alleys and intriguing stories about Salem. His storytelling style and Magic Lantern projections provide the history while letting Salem's own special aura shine through. His tour not only takes you to the places where events happened but also provides visuals so you get a deeper understanding of the people involved and what they experienced (witchcraft! murder! wrong side of the law!). I'd definitely recommend Salem On Foot Walking Tours. After all, there are so many tours and tour guides in Salem, especially in October. You want someone who has done the research and can answer your questions, not someone relying on a script.

The man leading the tour had no microphone so we could barley hear anything he was saying. He also walked away to fast. My 70 year old mother who uses a cane could not keep up and we ended up being separated from the group twice.
