Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum - Museum in Boston - 306 Congress St, USA

This place was AMAZING. Not only is there a fantastic performance, you have the interactive portion where visitors get to throw tea into the harbor, there’s informative re-enactments, and ACTUAL pieces of history preserved at this amazing museum. 10/10 across the board. Honestly the price is phenomenal for the experience. Shout out to the performers of the 2:30 session on Friday. They were engaging, fun, entertaining, and seemed so passionate. We had an amazing time! What an excellent start to our trip in the city.

Thank you!* We had an unplanned visit to the museum - we actually just wanted to see where the Boston Tea Party happened, and stumbled upon this museum! There's a tour that takes about 45 minutes, but completely worth it - you get the full history of why the Boston Tea Party happened, the events leading up to it, and why it was important to the American Revolution. It's a combination of re-enactment, movies and some other cool tech stuff. You also get to throw some boxes of tea into the harbor! Kids had a great time, and so did we!

It was a nice interactive experience to visit the place, along with family and guests from Canada. The historical characters and events, like throwing tea, are narrated innovatively, as if live. I was assigned as Henry Prentiss, a merchant, operating a shop near Boston Massacre venue Abigail's Tea Room and the tour of the various sections of the ship was fantastic. The tickets are expensive; being part of American Independence history should be subsidized to induce interest in the young generation.

It was a wonderful interactive experience. The staff/characters were fantastic and made the experience all the better. Bringing History alive the way the Boston Tea Party Ship Museum does is a great way to learn about history. Being able to take part in the "town meeting" and "throwing tea" overboard was a real highlight. Keep up the great work team Huzzah!

Recommended. One must participate to have fun, and also learn. It is a one-hour experience all together. It offers dramatization that informs about the historical event. I'd say it's a little pricey, but I was more than satisfied with the experience. I even purchased souvenirs (very unlikely from my part...lol.). Maybe if the tea tasting, something that one must do during a rainy afternoon anyway, were included it'd be a different feeling. Please take your kids and participate. My favorite part was the assembly, though others in my party didn't like it...lol. There is a moment on the ship replica (nice), some screening and museum, and finally a short movie. Well now, I'm off for a cup of tea.

I absolutely loved this! The actors really brought to life the history of the BTP and the surrounding events. The museum is so meticulously curated to really engage the participants. My friend and I were absolutely blown away by this and cannot recommend it highly enough to people, especially if you’re like us and only remember bits and pieces from middle school social studies about this time in history!

As a history buff, I was so excited to visit. The staff were friendly. The price did not match the experience for me. The only thing I learned was that the building does not stand in the location where the event actually happened. It was nice to walk in a replica of the ship that was part of the event. In addition there is no actual tea dumping. If you do not know anything about the event then I would recommend it.

Celebrated the 250th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party yesterday morning. What a momentous occasion to be a part of. From learning about all the history that happened back then, to throwing the tea crates from the wharf, it's definitely one of the coolest museums in Boston, and I can't believe it took us this long to visit!
