We loved it! - Our tour was really great! Small enough group that it wasn’t overwhelming to stay on the tour, since it was a very crowded weekend! Our guide was really great! Expected it to be a bit spookier lol but overall the history and story was really great. Would definitely take other tours by Salem Uncovered!

Tour guide hates witches - Town Hall was interesting but every thing else was no longer there. So we walked to spots that used to be this or that.
