Adult Group Tours

From outraged protests over the Boston Massacre, to the night Samuel Adams gave the secret signal to throw 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor, colonists came to Old South Meeting House to protest British rule. Now, your group can experience firsthand the inspiring history of this museum and National Historic Landmark.

All tours offer an introduction to the remarkable history of the Meeting House as well as an opportunity to view the exhibit Voices of Protest or enjoy our audio program If These Walls Could Talk… at your own pace.
