Step back in time and join our bus ride for an adventure to Strawbery Banke Museum in Portsmouth, New Hampshire for a 2 hour self-guided tour that brings more than 350 years of history. We had such a great time last year and actually ran out of time, so we are headed back. Explore up to 15 historic houses on their original sites, meet engaging roleplayers, watch traditional craft demonstrations and explore historical gardens and landscapes while moving between different time zones. The museum depicts a community of where people lived and worked for more than 100 years and includes elegant mansions, working class homes in a waterfront neighborhood, a colonial tavern and a 1940's corner store.
We will stop for lunch at Roundabout Diner in Portsmouth before our tour, where you can order off their breakfast or lunch menu (lunch on your own). Please wear sneakers or comfortable shoes as the tour will involve walking.
Cost: 30.00 includes bus ride and ticket for self-guided tour
