About

Step Into Colonial Boston at the Tea Party Ships & Museum

Travel back to the dramatic days before the American Revolution with a journey to the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum. Enter an immersive experience where you become a part of history, discovering the pivotal role Boston played in the formation of the United States.

Revolutionary Storytelling and Live Action

As you arrive, historical interpreters dressed as Sons of Liberty and local citizens greet you, setting the stage with authentic 18th-century energy. Join in interactive reenactments on the museum floor, where you’ll witness key moments and inspire your own sense of defiance. With your ticket, you enjoy timed admission ensuring an attentive, crowd-free environment.

Engage with professional actors as they reveal the stories behind the historic protest of December 16, 1773. Participate in the action by joining the famous tea-dumping event from the decks of full-scale replica ships—the Eleanor and the Beaver. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a history buff, this hands-on adventure offers an unforgettable way to grasp the ideals and courage of Boston’s colonists.

Authentically Restored Tea Ships

Step aboard the beautifully recreated ships and feel what life was like for both the British and the revolutionaries. Examine the decks, inspect barrels and ropes, and soak in the harbor views as you listen to stories of those who risked everything for freedom.

Historic Artifacts and Unique Exhibits

Inside the floating museum, see rare artifacts from the era including the legendary Robinson Tea Chest—one of the original tea chests tossed into Boston Harbor over two centuries ago. Discover displays filled with period items, learn about the different types of tea involved in the protest, and understand the economic as well as political tensions that sparked the American revolution. Engaging multimedia exhibits and a powerful multisensory documentary further bring these events to life, giving context to why the Boston Tea Party remains so significant.

Family Fun and Colonial Refreshments

All ages are welcome to take part in the adventure, from dumping tea into the water to asking questions of costumed guides. After your historic voyage, refuel at Abigail's Tea Room—offering a peaceful spot to sample tea blends and fresh treats reminiscent of colonial Boston. Don’t miss the gift shop, where you can pick up themed souvenirs and gifts celebrating America's past.

Plan Your Experience

The museum tour lasts roughly an hour, but guests are encouraged to allow extra time for the tea room and shop. The venue is open daily but closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Note that tea room and gift shop areas are accessible even without a museum ticket.

This attraction is a must-see for visitors interested in America’s founding, families, or anyone looking for an engaging Boston experience. With historic ships, interactive presentations, and meaningful artifacts, the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum lets you relive the night that sparked a revolution.
