Our guide was Rory. He was very informative and gave us a nice tour. We did a night tour. Salem is amazing.

Extremely knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide :) The level of detail and intertwining of historical stories feels like listening to an audiobook. Great job!!

We’ve never been to Salem, so this was a super way to kick off the trip! Our group was small, which I greatly prefer to one of those groups of 20, giving us a more intimate experience. Our guide knew so much! He had really researched every story and legend himself so he was even able to tell us which legends were true, or add details that other people didn’t have in their tours/histories. Really fun!

The tour, and tour guide, Rory, we’re really informative and interesting. Highly recommend this tour.

Guide was extremely knowledgeable and could answer any question about Salem. The images projected on the sites made the tour engaging and spooky. Unique stories about the history of the area, not just ghost tales

Rory was a passionate , informative, and entertaining tour guide. He was well researched and very personable. I learned so much about Salems history with a bit of supernatural stories mixed in. It began to rain during our tour but Rory kept the crowd engaged with his incredible story telling despite the weather. I highly recommend the Magic Lantern Tour with Rory.

This was a great show. Very entertaining and fun, the time flew by. Great audience participation, fun for all.

Everything just was amazing! Our tour guide was awesome! I felt like I learned a lot more things on this tour then I would have any other! And seeing salem at night was truly magical

Rory was excellent! Definitely had his facts straight and has done the research with original documents unlike a lot of other night tours. Had many interesting things to say and the lantern was great!

Had a great time! The gentleman had a lot of historical knowledge! And the trick at the end was great

As a Salem resident and one-man show, Rory O'Brien knows the back alleys and intriguing stories about Salem. His storytelling style and Magic Lantern projections provide the history while letting Salem's own special aura shine through. His tour not only takes you to the places where events happened but also provides visuals so you get a deeper understanding of the people involved and what they experienced (witchcraft! murder! wrong side of the law!). I'd definitely recommend Salem On Foot Walking Tours. After all, there are so many tours and tour guides in Salem, especially in October. You want someone who has done the research and can answer your questions, not someone relying on a script.

The man leading the tour had no microphone so we could barley hear anything he was saying. He also walked away to fast. My 70 year old mother who uses a cane could not keep up and we ended up being separated from the group twice.

Tour guide was phenomenal! Experience was unique and entertaining with loads of facts! I’ve never been on a tour at Salem but I’m glad that this was the first.

Very informative! Tour guide was personable and answered our questions. We did a lot of walking and was able to see and learn about various historical facts about the town.

Rory was amazing, very friendly and informational. He took us to all the hot spot areas as well as was patient in all the questions we asked. Highly recommend!

Informative and easy to follow. And the group wasn't a sea of strangers unlike a lot of other tours. Plus, projector.

Rory is a wealth of knowledge on all things Salem! My boyfriend and I definitely learned and laughed a lot. I even just bought 2 of his books that I can’t wait to read!! This tour was the highlight of our short time in Salem as it was the only thing that fully immersed us in the history of the town — beyond just the witch trials of 1692. It was also really interesting hearing Rory’s perspective on things since he himself has been a resident of Salem for quite a while. The magic lantern aspect of the tour truly helped it stand out from other options. As someone who definitely is more of a visual learner, seeing pictures as Rory was speaking helped me absorb the information much better. Also, the group size is much more intimate than most other tours I saw while in Salem, which makes for an overall more enriching experience! This tour gives you so much value for the money, and in my opinion is a can’t-miss Salem night tour.

Roy was incredibly knowledgeable and funny. He brought the history to life, and tied it wonderfully to local lore.

The guide was nice but the tour was not interesting at all. We just left it after a few stops. By then some others had already escaped.

Houdini stories!!! Never heard those before. Our guide was very informative. Loved the images that were projected on the brick walls and sidewalks of Salem.
