Duration was good, but had to wait far too long in the queue, even though the ticket was pre-reserved. In addition, online ticket had to be exchanged on site, totally inefficient. Seine tour was ok, could have been presented more extensively

The trip was pleasant, but unfortunately the boat didn't go as far as the Ile de la Cité as mentioned on the site. Too bad

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.

Loved the time spent going about and got enough time to add the sights. Saw the Eiffel tower lit up. But the seats upstairs were closed always. So everyone crowded at the bottom and especially outside. Why not remove the seats from upstairs to not give false expectations to the customers.

Very pleasant cruise. Thanks to the boat driver for taking the time to stop in front of the Statute of Liberty for photos.

Your experience

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.
