Great app for touring Salem, MA! Engaging story telling, excellent historical stories overall very interesting. I liked the flexibility of using the app since I could go at my own pace and re-visit sites that interested me. Really liked the narrators and special effects, made it more immersive! Would recommend for a fun tour of Salem!

“Salem On Your Own” is awesome! It made exploring Salem super fun and easy. The app gives great stories and directions, so you can go at your own pace and still learn a ton about the city’s history. I loved the mix of spooky tales and real local facts—it felt like having my own personal guide without the crowds. Totally worth it if you’re visiting Salem!
