About this tour

Follow the road through Salem’s dark history on a self-guided Salem Witch Trials Driving Tour. Begin at Broad Street Cemetery, then use GPS-guided audio to find significant sites connected to the trials across Salem, Peabody, and Danvers. The narration plays automatically as you drive, and offline access helps keep the experience convenient along the way.

Visit Proctor’s Ledge, the confirmed execution site of 19 people, and drive past the Rebecca Nurse Homestead, the preserved home of an executed victim. The homestead may be closed and has limited hours, so the tour’s outdoor focus lets you continue exploring regardless. There is no museum admission included. Take 3–5 hours or move at your own pace; your tour access never expires.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.75 from 4 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

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 7.0. Top 43% in Salem means it ranks in the top 43% of tours in Salem by this score.
