Thought this was very informational and would recommend it to people who don't know the history of Salem. Only complaint is there was only one trolley running the day we went (Memorial day) and the tour is 1 hour long, so if you got off at one of the stops you had to wait a whole hour before the trolley would come get you again. So we never got off and just rode the whole hour tour, then went to the places we wanted to see more. All-in-all a great tour and we will probably do this again when we have out-of-town company.
We boarded this wonderful trolley in the heart of Salem and had a great time learning about the area. We made mental notes on where we wanted to revisit during our stay and enjoyed the storytelling bus driver. The Massachusetts accent was an ideal icing on the tourist cake. You can easily get off and on at various points throughout the tour and explore a variety of historic and entertaining sites. We liked being able to rest and relax while someone else did the driving through town ;-) There is room at the front and rear of the trolley for your stroller. The price was well worth the adventure.
If you’d rather let someone else do the driving (and that’s not a bad idea in busy Salem), the trolley tours are a good deal. The trolley covers 8 miles with twelve stops that include the major sights and attractions of Salem. You can get on and off all day long. Tours start hourly at the Salem Visitor Center.
This is great for when the kids need a little down time and you don't want to just sit in a restaurant. You can see the sights, get cool information, and relax all at the same time.
