This tour combines true tales from Salem’s past with some mild ghost stories just for kids age 6+. Our aim is not to scare the heck out of your kids, but to provide a little shiver and bit of mystery for kids who like ghost stories. We are also telling you intriguing historical facts as well. This tour follows a route that is near the downtown, but it’s a little off the beaten path, very picturesque, and you’ll feel as if you stepped back in time. The tour ends at our historic and creepy Broad Street Cemetery, which was established in 1655. Meets at 316 Essex Street.
For over twelve years, parents traveling with kids have chosen Salem Kids Tours for a fun, well-researched and fascinating trip through time. Many times we have heard from kids, “I didn’t want the tour to end.” Parents have described our tours as the highlight of their trip to Salem. We are happy to show you around. We love kids, we understand their unique needs, and we look forward to meeting you on one of our tours.

We brought our 3 grandsons on the Slightly Spooky Tour and they loved it. It was a great experience and has sparked our interest in doing more Salem walking tours in the future.

I would give this tour more stars if I could! The Salem Kids Slightly Spooky Tour was beyond my family's expectations. Alicia is an amazing tour guide as she delivered an engaging, interactive, fun history lesson for kids and adults alike. Her gifts as a teacher and in-depth knowledge as a Salem resident were on display. My 7 yo was so engaged she didn't want to be interrupted by photo opportunities, and neither she nor my 5yo was overspooked at any time. We took an early tour, just before Halloween, and we were able to avoid the crowds and experience the Halloween excitement and beauty of Salem. I can't recommend this family-friendly tour more, and look forward to future tours (at all times of the year) with Salem Kids Tours.

Alicia was an incredible guide. Wonderful with the kiddos, keeping their rapt attention and also giving great information to the adults at the same time. This was a wonderful way to start our visit to Salem with the family and Alicia also had great recommendations of other things to do in town. Would definitely recommend this tour even if it was the only thing you were going to do!

Alicia was amazing! Super knowledgeable, funny and she was great with the kids. My daughter loved the tour and we both learnt something new today. I recommend booking with Alicia when you're in salem, you won't regret it!

Really fantastic tour. We took our 8 and 10 year old children and they were engaged and having fun the whole time. Alicia covered all of Salems rich history from before the witch trials and after. The kids learned a lot and so did I! Alicia combines a wealth of knowledge with a fun light attitude.
