I went on the 4 pm 10/28/21 1692 Salem witch trails tour. It was poorly handled by the guide. Her presentation was scattered, she gave very little info, and she allowed the presentation to be taken over by a 7 year older kid that asked endless questions about witches. We didnā€™t even walk thru the cemetery like other tours, only outside it.

This tour has achieved the Badge of Excellence from Trip Advisor and is head and shoulders above the other tours in the city. It is a deep dive into the facts of the witchcraft trials of 1692. The tour does not go in the cemetery because there is no real witchcraft history significance to the cemetery. We encourage questions about the trials from a guest whether they are 7- or 70-years-old. And asking questions about witches seems appropriate on this tour.

My trip was a disaster. I missed 2 of the tours I paid for because there wasn't any good directions on where we had to go. The dates weren't on the page so I paid for 2 tickets that didn't even start till next week all together I lost over 200 in tickets not used cause there was poor directions.
