We visited the Phillips House for one of their winter weekends programs, but came an hour early to get a full tour of the House. The tour guide was very enthusiastic and able to answer almost all of our questions about the home and the family that owned it since 1911. It's amazing to see a home that has remained... More

The Phillips house shows a piece of Salem history from the perspective of a family who lived in the prosperous and historic McIntyre district on what's been named one of the most beautiful streets in America. Each room has new treasures to discover, both of the era from when the house was built and from the global collections of Mr.... More

The house is owned by Historic New England and it is one of the few which is open year round. We had a great tour, just the two of us and our guide, and we were able to ask as many questions as we wanted. It didn't feel like a tour, more of a visit to someone's new house. Our... More

Our tour guide was very condescending. I tripped on a rug (luckily for me I didn't fall) and fixed it and she scolded me as if I were a child. I understand the value of these priceless arifacts but perhaps the rug should not be displayed or roped off so that the visitor is safe as is the rug.Totally ruined... More

To finally see the inside of one of the historic mansions on this street, was a bit of a thrill. Beautiful place.

This was my third trip to Salem, so I was looking for something a little off the beaten-path to do. This tour was so worth it! It was $5 and because we went early in the morning, there was no one else there, so it was a private tour for my husband and I. On the map, it looks deceptively... More
