From Boston Salem Witch Trials History Tour
Is the From Boston Salem Witch Trials History Tour Worth It
The From Boston Salem Witch Trials History Tour is an eight-hour day from your Boston hotel, from $190 per person, rated 4.83 by 31 travellers on GetYourGuide at the 23 September 2026 check. It is the only listing on GetYourGuide that includes Salem Witch Museum entry, and it adds the House of the Seven Gables, a trolley tour, Pickering Wharf, snacks and water.
In time, the day is mostly museums and town: a guided hour in Salem, an hour each at the Salem Witch Museum, the House of the Seven Gables and Pickering Wharf, the Witch House from outside and Salem Maritime National Historical Park. On your own, the two entries alone cost $19 and $26 for an adult. The price covers the coach and the planning; it is not suitable for children under five.
Yes, if you have no car and want the museums done for you. $190 covers transport, a trolley tour, the Salem Witch Museum ($19 on your own) and the House of the Seven Gables. The honest minus: most of the day is museums and wharf, the guided walk in Salem is one hour, and children under five are not suitable. For more walking and a lower price, the 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk costs $25 after a $10 weekend train.
