When visiting Salem make sure you take a tour from this place. I brought a group of friends up to Salem for the day and we booked this tour. Our guide was Nancy and she knows her stuff. Factual, interesting and fun. Iā€™ve tried others and this by far is the best. Iā€™ve been on this tour a few times and each guide is pleasant, knowledgeable and fun! This is a must visit.

Our tour guide for the day was Nancy. She informed that she was an 8th grade history teacher and had spent her own time intensely studying the salem witch trials. She is also a certified "historian" (not sure of I am correct in this as there was a lot of info) which she had to be to be a tour guide. The tour was very informative and a good insight to how living back in the 1600s was. Nancy explained things very well and broke them down for a better understanding. I found that what I had learned about the witch trials going up, most of it was simply not true. And most of i had no idea. So this was good learning about the history. I would definitely tour with Nancy and the tour company again!!

We are so glad you enjoyed the tour. Nancy has been studying the Witchcraft Trials for over 25 years and has become quite the authority on the subject. You got a tour from the best person in the city. Thank You

I made a tripadvisor just to leave this review. This tour was full of interesting facts and our tour guide Nancy, really kept the crowd (of almost 50 people!!) entertained and captivated with stories of paranormal experiences. She was so sweet and honestly, deserves a FAT raise. If you're looking to do a ghost tour, this is definitely the one worth spending money on!!!
