Salem Kids Slightly Spooky Tour in Salem booking from $18.00

Salem Kids Slightly Spooky Tour

Overview

This tour combines true tales from Salem’s past with some mild ghost stories just for kids age 6+. Our aim is not to scare the heck out of your kids, but to provide a little shiver and bit of mystery for kids who like ghost stories. We are also telling you intriguing historical facts as well. This tour follows a route that is near the downtown, but it’s a little off the beaten path, very picturesque, and you’ll feel as if you stepped back in time. The tour ends at our historic and creepy Broad Street Cemetery, which was established in 1655. Meets at 316 Essex Street.
For over twelve years, parents traveling with kids have chosen Salem Kids Tours for a fun, well-researched and fascinating trip through time. Many times we have heard from kids, “I didn’t want the tour to end.” Parents have described our tours as the highlight of their trip to Salem. We are happy to show you around. We love kids, we understand their unique needs, and we look forward to meeting you on one of our tours.

Alicia was a delight- very funny, super engaging with the children on the tour. We had a great time and highly recommend the tour! Informative, fun, and the perfect length for children.

This tour was fun for our whole family (parents and two kids, ages 6 and 10). The tour guide is a sixth-grade teacher and she really knows how to talk to kids to interest and involve them. But the information was fun and interesting for adults too. The tour lasts about an hour and is mostly flat and an easy walk. It’s called “slightly spooky” but was not scary at all for my very jumpy 6-year-old. I’d recommend this tour for families with kids kindergarten through high school.

I had a blast with my 8 year old. It was a great review of the last 400 years, not just the Salem witch trials. Alicia was very nice and a great guide - energetic and informative.
