The historical walking tour of the Salem witch trials was excellent. Our guide James was steeped in the history of each of the places we visited on the tour, and to him these events and these deaths were not historical facts but the experience of people who lived their lives in the place where we stood. His closing remarks about learning from trials about doing better and treating people with greater compassion and respect were fitting.

James was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and funny! We had a great time! Our tour started almost on time except for a few stragglers. The meeting point was easy to find. James was very personable and easy to understand.

Informative and great way to see downtown Salem. Our guide was knowledgeable and encouraged a dialogue with the group rather than just lecturing. He kept it interesting and fun!
