The tour was very informative. Our guide Sarah was wonderfully and knowledgeable. For someone knows nothing about Salem, this is highly recommended the first stop, so you get an idea when you walk around the Salem.
Sarah was awesome! Very knowledgeable and friendly, well-spoken and educational. Highly recommend this tour!
A+ tour!! Sarah is so great at her job—you can tell she loves doing it and she does such a wonderful job telling (a condensed 90ish-min version) the story of the Salem witch trials with historical accuracy, sensitivity (always gave a warning of sad or difficult info that was coming), enough dramatic flair and humor to be entertaining but not cheesy or insensitive, and honor and respect for those that lost their lives or lost loved ones. Highly recommend this walking tour!
Sarah was an excellent tour guide! She was informed, accurate, charming, and funny. She kept our entire family (teens included) engaged. We really enjoyed learning about Salem!
The tour was very informative and fun. Our tour guide was Sarah Black and she was so good! Our kids are 13 and 15 and they said it was fun and they were interested in the true stories and history of what happened during the Salem Witch Trials.
Really interesting tour of the history of the trials — guide was informative and interesting and also comical. Glad we went
