Q&A

Q: Is this tour suitable for kids? My 10-year-old loves spooky stuff!

A: Yes, the Wicked Awesome Tours are generally suitable for kids! The guide shares spooky tales but keeps it light-hearted and fun. Just a heads up, though, some spots can be a bit creepy, so it's good to gauge your child's comfort level. They usually provide great historical context that's engaging for all ages!

Q: What should I wear for the tour? Any tips for the weather?

A: Dress in layers! Salem can be chilly, especially in the evening. Comfortable shoes are a must since you'll be walking quite a bit. Don’t forget to check the weather forecast—it's true that the tour goes on rain or shine, so an umbrella might be a good idea if the forecast looks sketchy.

Q: How long is the tour, and can we reschedule if needed?

A: The tour lasts about an hour, and it’s pretty straightforward—there’s usually not much need to reschedule. However, if you do need to change your date, it's best to contact them directly. They're pretty accommodating with changes as long as you give them some notice.

Just did the Wicked Awesome Tour in Salem, and wow!

I took the Witch Trial History and Salem Haunts tour last weekend, and it was seriously a blast! Our guide was so passionate about the history, and visiting the actual locations made everything feel so real. The Witch Trials Memorial was super moving, and I loved hearing the funny stories behind the Hocus Pocus locations. Definitely a must-do if you're in Salem!

Looking to buy this tour as a gift—thoughts?

I’m thinking of getting the Witch Trial History tour for my history-loving brother. He’s into all things spooky and Salem is on his bucket list. Can anyone who’s done it share their thoughts? Is it worth the price?
