Hello there...

My name is Alyse and I am the chick behind Things to do in Salem as well as SalemMAWedding.com. I am a 30-something year old content creator living in beautiful New England. Things To Do In Salem is a project 10+ years in the making. After wandering the gorgeous uneven brick streets for as many years as I have, the recommendations, travel tips, event info and more began to accumulate. I decided it was time to try to help others see Salem the way I do, to help others plan a successful trip into a wonderful city. This website came from that desire and I hope the information contained here is helpful.
