Boston Tea Party Museum 





Musuem
This is one of the best interactive hi tech history exhibits yet that we have ever experienced. First you have a conversation with Samuel Adams in a meeting room about the option of dumping the tea into the harbor because of unfair taxes without representation. The second part of the tour is to hop on a reproduction of one of two boats that carried the tea while learning of the history of that historic night and where you actually get the chance to dump the tea off the boat. Then you move onto the third phase where you hear more intimate accounts of the different people who played a part in the event. All the while you are guided along by in talented period costume actors who assume the role of actual noteworthy figured from the time. The last part is divided into three different sections that includes unique special effects and an original tea crate that has been preserved over the years and gifted to the museum. The final section is a video of Paul Revere's ride to Concord and how the Minutemen were able to send the British back to Boston thus starting the Revolutionary War. Then you conclude in the tastiest part of the tour at Abigail's Tea Room 
Abigail's Tea Room no admission needed
At Abigail's tea room you can come in and grab a quick lunch around for $10 which I recommend a fresh scone and a cup of soup with a cup of hot tea or glass of iced tea. There are so many flavors to choose that there is something for everyone. And their New England Clam Chowder is one of the best chowders I have ever tasted! You could even actually take lunch to go and enjoy as you walk around the city. They have kids specials as well and while dining you can interact with some characters and learn more about the period.
