Here are some answers to some commonly asked questions - Boston Logan Airport is the closest airport. It is about 15 miles south of Salem, which translates into a 30 - 45 minute drive, depending upon your route and time of day. A taxi will cost approximately $50.
From Boston, one of the easiest ways to get to Salem is via the MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority) Commuter Rail. Salem is the fifth stop on the Newburyport/Rockport Line. It is an easy 30 minute trip from North Station in Boston, and once at Salem Depot, downtown Salem is just a flight of stairs away. The cost is $5.25 per ride.
In a few weeks I'll be telling you about the Salem Ferry, which begins its service on May 23. I love the train (no traffic, no navigation, no worries, economical) - but the Salem Ferry is one of the best rides around. I'm getting ahead of myself, though. For now... discover the magic of Salem by train!
