Salem Witch Tour Tickets
Tickets run from free (self-guided) and $10 (audio) to $25–80 for a guided walk in Salem, and $151.47–385 per person for a day trip from Boston ($360.65 for the private car tour). Witch House entry is $17 on top. Our pick is also one of the cheapest guided ones: $35.
Our Pick and Two Alternatives
Salem witch tour tickets start at nothing and end at $385 per person, and the price tells you surprisingly little about the story you will hear. A guided walk through the places of 1692 costs from $25 — the 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk, the most-reviewed walk in Salem with 364 reviews. Our best-value pick, Secrets of Salem, costs $35 for two hours and nine stops. A full day from Boston with transport and two museum entries costs from $190.
For comparison, the Witch House and the Salem Witch Museum together cost $36 for an adult. A $25 walk is less than both, and it takes you past the Witch House on the way. Every price on this page is the “from” price on the partner page at the 23 September 2026 check, in US dollars, per person unless we say otherwise.

Salem Witch Tour Tickets by Price Tier
Six shelves cover everything on this site. Free: our self-guided route past the Memorial, Charter Street and the Witch House from outside. $10: the self-guided audio tour in six languages, rated 3.48 from 12 reviews. $25 to $39.20: nine guided group walks in Salem and Danvers, the core of this site. $52 to $80: the walk that ends in a witchcraft practice and the Salem Witch Tour in your own language. $151.47 to $385: six day trips from Boston, per person. $360.65: the private car tour from Boston, a private group.
Workshops sit apart: the broom workshop costs from $135, the psychic walk with a tarot reading from $140, and the costume photo session from $52. They are not walks, and their price buys something you take home — a broom, a reading or a set of photos — rather than a route.
Why Prices Say “From”
GetYourGuide shows the lowest price for one adult on an available date. The price for your date, your party and your chosen option can be higher, and two listings currently show a partner discount — SEE IT ALL at $39.20 instead of $49, and the Private Day Trip with Witch House Entry at $151.47 instead of $189. Several prices on this site moved in the nine days before the snapshot, which is why every page carries the date it was checked.
Bars are proportional to the lowest price in each tier; the private tier is a private group, so check the total for your party.
Salem Witch Tour Tickets for a Family of Four
Group walks are priced per person, so a family of four pays four times the ticket: $100 for the 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk, $140 for Secrets of Salem. Operators set their own child prices and we have not verified them, so the table uses the adult price for everyone — treat it as the upper bound. The coach day from Boston costs $760 for four, with transport and museum entries included; note that it is not suitable for children under five.
The private trips from Boston work differently: they are private groups, and the listing quotes the price for one adult, so check the total for your party on the partner calendar. Massachusetts law requires car seats up to 8 years or 57 inches, and the private trips do not provide them.
Kids’ prices, where an operator has them, show when you pick participants on the calendar.. The Boston day trip includes transport and entries; under-fives can’t ride the coach.
What a Salem Witch Tour Ticket Includes
A walking-tour ticket buys a guide and a route; entries are almost never included. On a Salem walk you see the Witch House from Essex Street, and going in costs $17. The Salem Witch Museum costs $19 for an adult, $17.50 for seniors and $16 for children aged 6 to 14. The House of the Seven Gables mansion tour costs $26, or $31 in October.
Day trips from Boston are the ones that bundle entries. The coach tour from $190 includes hotel pickup, a trolley tour, Salem Witch Museum and House of the Seven Gables entry; the Private Day Trip includes Witch House admission and either the Peabody Essex Museum or the Real Pirates Museum.
Free Things a Ticket Doesn’t Buy You
Some of the most important places cost nothing. The Witch Trials Memorial is free from dawn to dusk. The Charter Street burying point is free, with a free same-day reservation in October. Proctor’s Ledge, the execution site, is free. Salem Maritime National Historical Park charges no entrance fee; only its film has a ticket, $6 for adults.
Price Does Not Buy Rating
Across the twelve walks, price and rating move independently. The $25 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk is rated 4.23 from 364 reviews; the $35 Secrets of Salem 4.45 from 208; the $35 Ultimate Witches 3.91 from 78; the $80 Salem Witch Tour 4.92 from only nine. Pay more for a private guide, for entries or for your own language — not in the hope of a better story.
On the twelve walks, price and rating move independently. The $35 walk is rated 4.45 from 208 reviews; the $10 audio tour is rated below four; the private walks have no reviews at all. Pay more for a private guide or for entry fees — not for a better story.

Before You Book

Every tour here shows free cancellation up to 24 hours before and reserve now, pay later at the 23 September 2026 check; the booking page always shows the final terms before you pay.
How They Compare
The three tickets below cover three budgets. The 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk is the cheapest guided option at $25 and the one most people take. Secrets of Salem costs $10 more and adds half an hour and a named stop at Charter Street. The coach day from Boston costs $190 and replaces the drive, the parking and two museum tickets with one booking. None of them includes Witch House entry.
