Salem Witch Hunt Walking Tour in Salem Village
Is the Salem Witch Hunt Walking Tour in Salem Village Worth It
The Salem Village Witch Hunt Walking Tour — a salem witch hunt walking tour in the literal sense — is the only walk that starts where the accusations of 1692 began: Salem Village, today the town of Danvers, Massachusetts. It takes about 90 minutes, costs from $25 per person and has four reviews at 5.0 on GetYourGuide at the 23 September 2026 check — too few for us to rank it, so we list it with that caveat.
The guide is Daniel A. Gagnon, who has written on the trials, and $5 of every ticket goes to the Danvers Historical Society. The walk runs rain or shine on selected dates from July to October only. It is the Salem Village Witch Hunt Walking Tour, Massachusetts, in the operator’s own title — and it is in Danvers, not in Salem, so plan the drive.
Yes, if you want the beginning of the story and can get to Danvers. $25 for 90 minutes at the places where the first accusations and hearings happened, and $5 of every ticket goes to the Danvers Historical Society. The honest minus: it runs only on selected dates from July to October, has four reviews, and there is no train to the start. For a walk in Salem itself, the 1692 Witchcraft Trials Walk costs the same and has 364 reviews.
