The staff at the Boston Tea Party really enjoyed their roles and made the visit more than just a visit-they made it an experience! The time spent there was informative and interactive, even teaching us words that were used during that time frame! We went there with my 11 year old nephew who is a history fanatic, and as someone personally who never truly enjoyed history, museums, etc, I can truly say the experience was fun! 10/10 recommend!

It has been an amazing experience at the Boston Tea Party Museum! The booking process was smooth and simple, once I arrived at the museum I just had to show my QR code and I skipped the queue at the ticket shop. I didn't have connection on my phone and the possibility to access to my reservations offline was a great surprise to me. Such a great service!! Well done

Everyone who works there was so kind and helpful. The portrayal by the young students "acting" as Tea Party participants was incredible. My 14 year old son and I thoroughly enjoyed all of it. Throwing the "tea" was our favorite part. Thank you.

The his was an experience and not just a tour. Our guide was outstanding. We had my 10 year old grandson with us and he was chosen to throw the tea in the harbor. It was the highlight of our day in Boston for him.

The actors made this entire experience so amazing for me and my partner! They were very committed to their roles, witty, and all around pleasant. The tour also included very cool screen technology. Recommending it to all my friends and family, thank you!

    I knew I had signed up for a tour of The Boston Tea Party, I did not expect to get a amazing show with it, they stayed in character and convesed with everyone. When one lady asked me where I was from I replied California, she said she had not heard of such a place and I forgot she was in characted California did not exisit yet. This was so amazing and they made sure to have everyone play a part in the show. We laughed a lot but most importantly we learned.

    I don't feel like we got our money's worth. It was so many people that by the time we got down to the ship or into one of the exhibit rooms the lecture was half over. The guides started the lecture long before everyone was in the room. So a lot was missed. Highly disappointing.
