Summary

Enjoy a completely private driving tour for you and your group from anywhere in the Boston area to Salem and the picturesque North Shore with a local tour guide! As we journey northward along the Atlantic Coast, you’ll have the chance to stop in several seaside towns to explore their maritime heritage, pristine beaches, charming streets, and historic homes. 

A top destination and a must-visit for your tour from Boston is the town of Salem. Discover the real stories behind Salem’s most infamous event, the Salem Witch Trials, at the sites where they occurred. Your Salem tour can also include a stop at a Salem cemetery where several notable residents, including a notorious judge who presided over the Salem Witch Trials, are buried.

Other possible things to see in Salem include The House of the Seven Gables, the Salem Witch Museum, and Essex Street, Salem’s vibrant downtown district. Visiting these historic sites will transport you to colonial New England during a time of hysteria and superstition that led to one of the most well-known tragedies in American history. 

Next, we can venture to Cape Ann peninsula, which includes idyllic Manchester-by-the-Sea, known for its beaches and upscale boutiques, and Gloucester, a bustling port with historic lighthouses and thriving art scene. The postcard-perfect village of Rockport is a perfect place to enjoy ocean views, listen to the waves crashing on the shore, and see the most-painted building in America, Motif No. 1. Forget Cape Cod – these are the true hidden gems of Massachusetts’ shoreline!

Your driving tour will include plenty of time outside of the vehicle to explore other quaint towns like Marblehead, another colonial gem adorned with elegant mansions and rocky shores. And your tour guide will be happy to recommend spots to indulge in the New England seafood scene during your North Shore tour.
