    We took a tour with just our family. The guide was very informative and did a great job answering questions. Highly recommend this tour. It was a great way to learn about Salem.

    Ray is an awesome tour guide. His knowledge is amazing and so is his ability to tell the stories of what happened and where! If you want the actual details, then this is the tour for you.

    Our tour guide was awesome he knew so much history . He took his time and make sure we saw everything that we all wanted to see. Our time ran over as he had so much to show . We are going back next year and hope to get the same person . The only thing I wish was we could tip through the TripAdvisor as everyone knows who carries cash. I wish there was a way I could send him a tip he so deserves it but none of us had cash I felt so bad

    Ray was absolutely amazing. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about his city, but he was so kind and personable. I loved that he only takes small groups. When we saw passing tours with 40+ people, it was nice to look at our little group of 8. We walked and talked for just under three hours, and he even stopped in the middle and told us where all the good bathrooms were that we could use(and the ones to avoid!). Hands down an experience we will recommend to anyone we know coming to Salem!

    Raymond was a great tour guide. He took us to so may places and went into great detail about the history of Salem. We were told about the architecture and buildings, the books, tv shows, and movies that put Salem on everyone's radar, as well as some of Salem's part in the battle for our independence. The stories in the graveyards were very interesting. I enjoyed the witch trial memorial and his explanation of the symbolism of the structure and surroundings. I recommend his tour.
