Salem Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

We took the Murders and Mysteries Tour with Topher. He was exceptional. He told us many interesting stories, showed us photos, and also added some humor. We had a great time!

Misha was fantastic! The weather was rainy all day but stopped just before our tour. I ended up being the only person that showed up. He was so nice to keep the tour and gave me a private one. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. I had a great time tonight!

A thoroughly enjoyable tour around a number of stops in Salem which catered for fans of Hocus Pocus but also of main interest to me, the witch trials of 1692. Seán was an excellent guide with a clear talent for telling facts in a condensed and humorous, engaging manner. None of your boring droning on with this guy. The message at the final stop by the memorial for the 20 victims of the hysteria was poignant and a fitting ending reminder of a terrible time in the area’s history. Thanks Sean - much appreciated. Elaine from Wigan 👍😃

Knowledgable, nice mix of serious and funny, positive and upbeat, smooth transitions with historical and Salem witch happenings

Britt did an amazing job guiding the tour and was knowledgeable and funny and very engaging! Would def recommend her and would def do it again!

Gabrielle was so fun to have as a guide. As a local she had her own personal connections to the tour stops. She was very knowledgeable and had the knowledge of deeper history than what you can find in a simple google search. Gabrielle was very energetic and kind that perfectly contrasted the dark history of Salem that we all come to imbed ourselves in while visiting. 10/10 would tour with Gabrielle again!

Crew was fantastic. It was an amazing experience to go sailing on a schooner and to be out on the ocean with no engine noise or exhaust, no wake from a propeller, experiencing sailing as it has been done for centuries and millennia before the modern era. Truly a relaxing and a must-do life experience. I highly recommend it and would live to do it all over again myself!

Great experience and time sailing the harbor

Sebastian was amazing. He was the best tour guide I have ever had in a ghost tour, animated and very into the topic. Really great experience.

Bella was excellent! Very fun to learn the history of Salem.

I’ve done a few ghost tours in other states and this one was hands down THE best! Penny was our tour guy and she was absolutely fantastic. If you have the option to book with her DO IT! Her passion for doing tours is what makes the experience even more special! Didn’t get a ton of pictures 🤷‍♀️🤭much 💚 from Nashville TN, Penny!

Great story teller and very fun tour guide. Sarah was spot on with her information

Sarah was an amazing guide! She is very knowledgeable and informative. Me and my husband have a tradition where we do some kind of ghost/witch tour on every vacation we go on and this was the best one we’ve been on this far!

This is a very fun experience! The staff were friendly and knew what they were doing and it was done well, we may do this again!

It was a great tour on Hocus Pocus and salem facts! A lot of walking which was told at beginning of tour, had a great tour guide and so fun!

Great way to travel to Salem! No traffic great views and good information. The speaker was very knowledgeable.
