Salem's History Is More Extraordinary Than Most Tours Tell You
Walk Salem's most haunted streets and uncover the devastating true story of the 1692 witch trials — told the way only a lifelong local of old Salem can tell it. Named one of the best Salem walking tours by TripAdvisor - in the Top 10 Salem Walking Tours of 2026. Step into 400 years of mesmerizing ghost stories and Salem history. Enjoy Hocus Pocus filming locations. Then be shocked by Salem's lesser known witch trial history and the question nobody thinks to ask — why are there no Sheriffs in Salem anymore?
Beyond the witch trials, discover Salem's Revolutionary War history — including the first armed resistance to British authority in America, six weeks before Lexington and Concord. Hear the golden age maritime and pirate tales of the city that became America's most powerful trading empire. Every tour ends with personalized dining, shopping and exploring recommendations from someone who actually knows this city.
Evening lantern tours available for a spookier after-dark Salem experience. The perfect Salem day trip from Boston — 30 minutes by MBTA Commuter Rail from North Station.
