What To Expect

Boston

Relax as we take a 1 hour ride to Salem

The House Of The Seven Gables

The House of the Seven Gables, by Nathaniel Hawthorne, published in 1851. Set in mid-19th-century Salem, MA, is based on the legend of a curse pronounced on Hawthorne’s own family by a woman condemned to death during the infamous Salem witch trials.

Salem Witch Museum

The Salem Witch Museum, founded in 1972, offers two historical presentations. The first tells the tragic story of the 1692 witch trials, and takes place in a large auditorium with life-sized stage sets which are illuminated and dramatically-narrated to immerse visitors in the world of 17th century Salem. The second exhibit, Witches: Evolving Perceptions, examines the European witchcraft trials, the evolving image of the witch, and the larger issues of persecution and scapegoating in American history.

Pickering Wharf

A harbor side shopping-village, filled with history and landmarks alike. This is the perfect place to explore what Salem has to offer: from local shops to waterfront dining on the Salem harbor to the Salem Maritime Site and the Friendship trading ship.

Bewitched Statue of Elizabeth Montgomery

Now a landmark of the city of Salem, this statue pays tribute to the well-known TV sitcom ‘Bewitched’ and its filming of the seventh season here in Salem. This bronze beauty has quickly become a staple in our magical city. You can visit this monument during time. This will be our meeting point after your leisure time.
