Wonderful walking tour hosted by a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide! Vijay is passionate about Salem history. He begins the tour at the Daniel's House, an example of expanded first period (early 17th century) architecture. We continued on foot, looking at the facades of several homes in the maritime district, moving through the Georgian and Federalist periods and beyond. Questions and comments are welcome, and our host seems to have an endless font of knowledge about history, preservation, and architectural detail and social influence. I am a resident of this town walking in a neighborhood that I know rather well, yet I went home with an enhanced appreciation of what is right around me. Well worth it indeed!

Excellent tour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about architecture and history it made the experience 10x better. He made recommendations of other places to check out while on our trip. Great tour if your tired of the Salem witch trials and want something different.

Vijay does absolutely outstanding personalized tours! My boyfriend contacted him about getting a tour of the Daniel's House since we were unable to book a room there and he was more than happy to accomate us.
He is so insanely knowledge and fun to talk to that we ended up also booking a personalized walking tour of Salem focusing on architecture. Once again he was very engaging and friendly. If you're a history nerd who enjoys asking questions and learning then we 1000% recommend him!

“We took two walking tours (two different tour providers) in Salem and this one with Vijay was our favorite by far. He has so much knowledge about the city - and not JUST related to the witch trials. We learned so much about how this city contributed to the growth and development of America as a colony and then country. We were able to take a personal tour (just my husband and myself) and Vijay was able to answer all our questions and personalize it to what we wanted to learn. Easily manageable walking tour. The highlight of our Salem trip”

Vijay is amazing, both as a tour guide and a historian. He was by far the best tour guide we've ever had! He has charisma, knowledge, and passion about his subject and we both learned a lot on our tour of the Daniel's House. We were lucky enough to have a private tour, and I highly, highly recommend that option if you get the chance!

What can I say, but Wow!!! Went to the Daniels house for a fireside chat lead by Vijay and we were blown away. His knowledge of history and the way he told it is surely a gift. We had such a great evening and loved that it was BYOB. We will definitely be taking another tour with him... Thanks for making date night fun and historical
