Explore Salem’s Witch Trials history by day, then hear chilling ghost stories on a guided nighttime walk through the city.

About this tour

Explore Salem’s history by day and its eerie legends after dark with a combo pass for two guided walking tours. This Salem history and ghost walking tour combo pairs stories of the Witch Trials with a nighttime stroll through the city’s spookiest locations.

Choose either Steps Through 1692, a one-hour walk through the heart of Salem, or Wandering Witches, an unscripted 30–45-minute question-and-answer session with a real witch. Steps Through 1692 visits sites connected to the trials, including the Old Salem Gaol and Courthouse, Old Burying Point, and the Salem Witch Trials Memorial. Wandering Witches may take place indoors or outdoors, depending on weather and guest preference.

Then join Salem’s Spooky Specters after dark for a 1.25-hour tour of haunted spots and chilling tales of madness, murder, and mayhem, with a touch of humor. The Salem history and ghost walking tour combo offers a lively way to see the city’s past from two perspectives. Arrive early, lace up comfortable shoes, and discover Salem’s stories on foot.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 4.38 on Viator and 4.50 on GetYourGuide. Ratings on these sites cluster near the top of the 5-star scale, so we compare each one with all other ratings on the same site before combining them.

How the score works and rating distribution in Salem
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 5.6.
