We do not enter buildings on the tour.
I recommend using the MBTA for weekend visits in October. Demand for parking often outstrips its availability and causes significant traffic delays. Parking information at Salem.org
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday are great days to visit Salem in September and October to avoid crowds.

To be clear, admission into the historic buildings of Salem’s McIntire district is not a part of the experience. Kenneth provides historical storytelling and narrative while viewing the exteriors of historic locations and homes.

Kenneth’s tour is fabulous. If you are on the fence, just book it. You won’t regret it. His knowledge of all things Salem is impressive. He clearly takes his job seriously both as a job but also as a passion. He is respectful of the history and the truth. He goes out of his way to be sure he shares only facts and doesn’t sensationalize anything that he can’t back up with research. I appreciated his kind demeanor and the care he took in deciding what aspects of Salem to include in his tour. It was well with both the time and money and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for such a special day Kenneth!

Kenneth provided a wonderful Salem tour experience for us. There are plenty of tours that cover the Witch trials. However, Kenneth provided us with a detailed tour of the people that made Salem a Global Giant in the seafaring trade by talking about these people and viewing the exterior of their Federal style homes on Federal, Essex, and Chestnut streets.

Fantastic history tour! While it felt like a lot of the Halloween Salem experience could be kitschy and frivolous, it was wonderful to take this superbly lead tour that took the history of Salem seriously and respectfully while still being exceptionally entertaining and informative. Very highly recommend.

Ken is a great storyteller, very captivating!! We had a good mix of history and trivia. The candy he shared out was a great added bonus. He ensured that the tour catered for my 87yr old father in law (and a lady in a wheelchair).

We went in a historic tour of Salem with our guide who was incredible. They were extremely knowledgeable, tailored the tour to our interests. Fantastic stories about Salem along with a peppering of ghost stories for fun. Made sure we got to our next destination in a timely manner. Gave great ideas of places to check out or eat at if interested. Just a plain Amazing Experience. 🙌🤩🥰

I was fortunate enough to get Ken all to myself on this day. Booking on a rainy Monday has it advantages! Ken was fantastic and I learned so much about Salem and its history on this tour. Would highly recommend.
