From the beginning of the process where I received the tickets , the attention was excellent, the tour covers many of the sites of tourist relevance in Parisi . The entrance should be improved, a little messy.

we are talking about France, Paris. Obviously, the scenario is gorgeous. A boat leaving every 30 minutes , no commitment of arrival time, does take a lot of pressure away from a tourist.

Beautiful cruise on the Seine, not to be missed. The only not insignificant problem is that the guide can only be heard on the lower level. Those who choose to take the cruise on the uncovered upper level hear practically nothing. Otherwise everything is okay

Why you shouldn't miss this

The calm waters of the Seine make for a relaxing cruise. With commentary from an expert, you will understand the historical significance of each of the attractions that you pass by. Your tour will begin by passing the Louvre Museum and the Conciergerie towards Notre Dame. The glass pyramid monument of the Louvre, however, is not visible from your ship due to the walls covering the area. The Notre Dame eastern facade is stunning to see in person. The tall spires and flying buttresses are in the typical Gothic style. The Musee d'Orsay with its two massive clocks is on the right bank of the Seine. Seven large windows can be seen between the two clock towers.

You can also catch a glimpse of the Conciergerie, where Queen Marie Antoinette was jailed before her execution during the French Revolution. The massive stone structure with its numerous imposing towers is in stark contrast to the other monuments. At the end of the 70-minute your, you will be dropped back to the point where you boarded the ship.
