Salem Uncovered Tours
About
Salem Uncovered Tours offers guided walking tours built around Salem’s real history, with research-driven storytelling and, in its own words, zero gimmicks. The afternoon witch trials tour visits historic locations to explore what happened in 1692, explaining how a community driven by fear, religious ideology and extremism executed 20 innocent people. Local guides lead groups along the city’s cobblestone streets, sharing surprising truths along the way.
In the evening, the Dark History of Salem tour moves past the witch trials to true tales of murder for money and for love, betrayal, pirates, torture, psychics and a love story spanning centuries. It also covers the era when Salem was the richest city in America and home to the country’s first millionaire. The company pitches itself to visitors who want real history rather than clichés.
