The gift shop was nice but we didn't go into the museum. We did see the ships without going on them. They are very small and crowded. Not necessary to go onboard. However, with young children might be fun as they recreate for them throwing tea into the harbor.
A worthwhile stop on any trip, especially with children. Listen to actors in period costume walk you through the events leading to the Boston Tea Party! Go aboard replica ships and take your own stand against taxation without representation by throwing a box of tea into the harbor!
We tried to visit this museum, as we wanted to get into the two ships that stake each side of the building. However an entrance fee of US$29.75 per legion was beyond our means. We found this very disappointing after all the excellent museums in Washington DC which are open to the public. I don't mind paying entrance, but not that price
Well worth the time and very well done. Learned some things about the Boston Tea Party I didn’t know - do the Freedom Trail and learn about the Boston Massacre first as it will help put things in context.
Began with a group meeting. My husband and I were the only English (non American) people in the group and felt very ignored by the guy handing out cards, very disappointing. We tried not to.let this taint the rest of our trip. Also the tea room was closed for our visit, when I asked about a discount because of this I was very rudely dismissed. Wouldn't rush to go back :-(
