"Witch Trials" Walking Tour in Salem

Join us for our Secrets of Salem Dark History tour--right in the heart of Witch City! You might be surprised to learn that Salem has a name that contradicts its image. The colonists chose the name Salem, which is the Hebrew word for peace, for the town in the seventeenth century. Salem, Massachusetts, was a significant American colonial town and a seaside hamlet with a maritime history. It exhibits many of the characteristics we identify with those early settlers, such as a Puritan work ethic, devotion to education, strong links to the community, and a hardiness to weather the rigors of a coastal winter. Of course, Salem is inextricably associated to witches and the 1692 witch trials. Join our Salem History Experience and discover everything there is to know about Salem, the witch trials, and beyond.

This was a really fun walking tour around some of Salem's historic sites. Our guide Aurelia was friendly and engaging.

Sailing on Historic Schooner Yacht in Salem, MA

Loraine_C, Oct 2026

Best Bucket List check

Crew was fantastic. They gave a great history synopsis of the ship. The safety guidelines were helpful and comforting especially if you’ve never been on a sailboat. The crew walked around, interacted with us all and gave us the option to help out raising sails. We had great weather. It was perfectly windy. The duration i felt, was just right, not too long and not too short. Overall, we had a great time and checked the box off my bucket list.

City Cruises Salem High Speed Ferry to/from Boston

Helen_C, Oct 2026

Scenic route to Salem

Scenic route to Salem. beauty all the way to Salem and tour guide kept it very informative. I made the mistake of scheduling House of Seven Gables so close to our arrival time. we missed 15 min of the tour. This was my mistake. House of 7gables was kind enough to still allow us in and got us to our group. My point have a time buffer plus walking distance time if you do schedule a Salem tour. Other than my mistake, it the ferry was a great experience and everything I thought it would be.

Spooky and delicious!! 🍻

If you're going to do one tour, do this one. The tour itself is long, delicious, and so well paced. You get to taste drinks at each different bar/pub, and each stop comes with a haunting story that makes the drink taste even better. Such a brilliant concept. And our guide made it even better — fun, energetic, super knowledgeable, and genuinely patient with all the questions we had (and we had a lot!). You can tell they love what they do and love the history they share. You definitely get the most out of this tour. Worth every minute and every sip.

We enjoyed this tour!

The tour was very interesting and well done. April was a very engaging and knowledgeable host, who is a local person with a long family history in the area. She took us to many sites and gave us a fuller picture of Salem’s amazing history. She answered all of our questions and made it fun. I went with my ten year old grandchild who really enjoyed all of the stories the way April told them.

Salem Uncovered: The Salem Witch Trials Tour with Jeffrey Lilley

Jeffrey Lilley delivered exactly what one should receive regarding this tragic, short-lived history of the Salem Witch Trials. He was extremely knowledgeable, and offered a facts-based version centered around understanding the localized factional conflict that occurred during this time, and the religious, social, economic, and political factors that played into the social consciousness of the early Puritanical colonists. I highly recommend Jeffrey and Salem Uncovered: The Salem Witch Trials Tour!
