David was a great tour guide. Funny, engaging, self-deprecating, informative and entertaining. May not be museum-level docent material but for an overview of the witch trials and the lead characters behind it, it was a perfect overview! I’d highly recommend this tour and David. Good stuff!

We did the earliest available time tour and it was great. It ended up being just me and my husband. Our tour guide, David, was very knowledgeable and made the entire tour entertaining. I would 10/10 recommend.

It was good but all of the original locations (with the exception of the cemetery) were torn down so it was more like a walking classroom than a real immersive experience.

David did a great job and put on a fun tour. He was very engaging and informative. He covered a lot of ground both physically but also with his stories.
