Salem Kids Tours
About
Salem Kids Tours bills itself as the city’s only walking tour company built for kids and families, and every guide is a certified Massachusetts teacher. Founded by middle school history teacher Alicia Diozzi, it aims to replace glazed-over museum days with interactive, well-researched stories that children ages 6 to 14 can follow and enjoy, while parents come away learning something too.
The History and Mystery Tour introduces downtown Salem through the real story of the witch trials and other surprising episodes, including one Hocus Pocus filming location. The Slightly Spooky History Tour blends history with gentle ghost lore along an off-the-beaten-path but walkable route. Each tour runs about an hour, so families can easily fit one, or both, into a day in Salem, and the company also designs custom experiences for school and community groups.
