Pick a few attractions that are close to one another<\/h3>\n
If you really need to cut down on time and don\u2019t have the ability to go from one side of Salem to the other, pick attractions that are close to one another. A few examples of this might include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- The Witch House, the Bewitched statue and Count Orlok\u2019s Nightmare Gallery<\/li>\n
- The Witch House, The Ropes Mansion and the McIntire District<\/li>\n
- The House of the Seven Gables, Ye Old Pepper Companie, The Friendship of Salem (she is currently away on restoration as of the publish date of this blog)<\/li>\n
- The House of the Seven Gables, the Schooner Fame (if you have time for a trip out onto the water), The Custom House<\/li>\n
- The Salem Witch Museum, The Salem Common, The Roger Conant statue, the Hawthorne Hotel, Crow Haven Corner<\/li>\n
- Salem Witch Village and the Old Burying Point, the Punto Urban Art Museum, Proctor\u2019s Ledge memorial, Artists\u2019 Row<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Food and drink<\/h3>\n
This one is obvious, but if you have time in Salem for lunch or dinner, grab something that is unique to the witch city! You might head up to the Roof atop the Hotel Salem or consider a window booth at Rockafellas for good people watching while you dine. Kawaka is one of Salem\u2019s newest as is Stella\u2019s restaurant and wine bar. If you\u2019re around while Goodnight Fatty is serving delicious cookies, I would high suggest a visit.

Go on a walking tour<\/h3>\n
Salem has many walking tour options, so grab tickets to one that suits your fancy and enjoy the city on foot! You could also combine this option with food\/drink and go on a trip with Salem Food Tours or Sips and Bites of Salem. Walking tours are a good way to sight see and also get some walking in before you have to get back to the airport or back in the car! For an overview of your options, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Grab some Salem reading<\/h3>\n
If you want to grab some reading material for when you\u2019re back on the road or in the air, check out the list of suggestions I came up with in collaboration with Wicked Good Books<\/a>. The titles are divided into two sections, Salem based and spooky titles.<\/p>\n
Go for some spirits<\/h3>\n
Salem is home to Far From the Tree Cider, Notch Brewery and Deacon Giles Distillery. If the Salem Spirits Trolley is running while you\u2019re in town, that might also be a good option. Of course, always exercise caution when drinking, especially if you\u2019re on a road trip and will be driving.<\/p>\n
Add in some spooky vibes<\/h3>\n
It\u2019s Salem\u2026duh. Go for a tarot reading or shop for local witchy supplies. Leave the witch city with some insight into the future or some unique goods to bring home with you.<\/p>\n

Recharge<\/h3>\n
If you\u2019re more of a rest and relax type of person, you\u2019re in luck as well. Salem is home to many businesses that will help you with just that. My favorite is the Salty Buddha\u2026maybe dropping into a yoga class is what you need in your life to reset from the chaos of travel.<\/p>\n

Shopping<\/h3>\n
Salem is home to hundreds of unique businesses that all offer local goods, handmade gifts and unique finds. If you see it here in Salem, it\u2019s likely not something you can get on Amazon later. Browse all of the amazing options and be sure to wander through the city\u2019s street fairs if you\u2019re visiting while one is happening!! I have found so many awesome things during the street fairs.<\/p>\n
