About The Tour

This walking tour just north of Boston brings you to a place that gained notoriety because of the Salem Witch Trials. But it’s become a tourist destination not only for its history, but for all things haunted, its month-long Halloween celebration, plus a sprinkling of pop culture. Salem may be a small city, but it’s a cauldron brimming with stories!

Here are just a few of the fun things you can do on the tour!

• Pay respects at the Witch Trials Memorial honoring innocent victims of 1692.
• Walk through Charter Street Cemetery, Salem’s oldest burial ground with historic gravestones.
• Step inside the Witch House, the only home tied directly to trials.
• Shop, stroll, and enjoy lively energy along the Essex Street Mall.
• Snap a photo with the Bewitched Statue, a tribute to the TV show.

Lake Tahoe was fun. Some of the sights were closed for infrastructure updates, but overall very enjoyable. Love the quick stops. The Fire Lookout was worth the hike.

The app is great! It is like having a personal tour guide in the car with you. It is very informative and entertaining. I will definitely be trying this for the other islands, too.
