Starting at check-in the man was incredibly rude. Once on the tour the guide spent the 1st 20 mins telling us about her personal work history, her FB, and her side businesses. While at stops she was rude to other tour guides and to guests in our tour. At one point she shushed a child in our group and gave a dirty look to the parents. That was about 35 mins in and we decided we had enough and left the tour. Would never recommend this tour to anyone.

October is a difficult month for Salem dealing with hoards of guests, trying to move everyone check everyone in and get the group out on time is a huge challenge As for the guide Elaina is one of the best (read other reviews) that is surprising to say the least Sounds like a busy Salem day was not your thing SNT

We were visiting family in the area and thought it would be fun to take our two teens on a tour of Salem. This tour was perfect for all of us! Elaina was so knowledgeable about the history of Salem, as well as the buildings. Our girls soaked in the history and loved learning about the possibilities of ghostly apparitions! I would definitely recommend Elaina as your guide. She was fun, knowledgeable and pleasant to chat with.
