Best Tour Guide Ever!

My sister, her friend, and I took the night tour on our trip to Salem last week and it was by far one of the best tours I’ve been on. Our tour guide Jonathan was absolutely amazing! Not only did he give us great details about the history of Salem, he was insanely hilarious! I don’t normally like to go on ghosts tour but this was absolutely worth every penny and I would spend more just to get another hour! Highly recommend!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you for the incredible review! We’re so happy to hear Jonathan made the tour both hilarious and informative—and that it exceeded your expectations. High praise indeed if you’d spend more just for another hour! We truly appreciate the recommendation.

Great time!

We had a great time exploring the beautiful streets of Salem and learning about the Salem witch trials and the town’s famous hauntings. The tour was the perfect mix of spooky fun and fascinating history. Our guide, Jeff, was fantastic—he kept everyone engaged from start to finish and made the experience enjoyable for all ages. We had kids and adults in our group, and Jeff managed to keep everyone entertained and interested throughout. Highly recommend this tour!

Cash Grab

Barbara_G, Oct 2025

Jeff our guide was knowledgeable and interesting. However I booked an 8:00 tour that said 12 and over - there was many little kids and strollers that distracted from the vibe . Also we didn’t visit Witch House or house of 7 Gables . We visit many “ former sites of.” Now new buildings. I was disappointed in that … one more thing . When we checked in at Town Hakl we were told to wait with this large group and “ the guides would come and split groups up..” 1 guide arrived and took no lie 40-50 of us walking . Thats a cash grab man . Last year I had a different tour more intimate and cheaper. So the 3 stars are for Jeff the guide only . Would not recommend your to others.
