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.

We used Shaka tours on Oahu and Maui and loved having a tour guide. The directions were accurate and extremely helpful. We got a great overview of both islands, learned a bit of history, and enjoyed the music. We'll take them with us again soon!
