Absolutely fascinating to learn the actual true story about the pirates and how they became pirates. Our tour narrator, Carolyn, was so animated in telling us the real tales of the pirates and what they endured. I would recommend taking the trip to Salem to visit the Real Pirate Museum !

I was very impressed by the detail they went into at Real Witch Museum. The actual artifacts were amazing. I was impreseed that you can actually see them work on artifacts in person. They are down a short path off of Derby stree but so easy to access! Behind Lulu's cafe, which was great too! The way the host, Carolyn brought it all to life made for an excellent outing.

We had seen the exhibit about the Whydah in Denver, but since we were in the area, we decided to check out this museum. It's quite nice and orderly, with a lot of information. The staff were knowledgeable.
