A perfect combination for a relaxing day in Paris. If you catch the sunset on the boat, the view is fantastic. We loved that combo

Very easy to book online; no long waiting time in the queue to board the boat. Cruise was about an hour long and we viewed a lot of the major parisien sights. Would recommend.

Very nice tour of Paris on the Siene. Would have appreciated more information about what the buildings we viewed were? Also and not that it would have changed our decision, but if there are issues with not being able to see the Statue of Liberty or other parts of the normal tour, due to the river's high level, you should let people know about this when they book...

Sightseeing along the Seine

Ready for a delightful Parisian escapade? Head to Port de la Bourdonnais, right under the Eiffel Tower, and hop aboard a flexible one-hour Seine River cruise. Forget the fuss – you can board whenever you fancy throughout the day as the cruise departs every 1 hour. As the boat leisurely cruises down the Seine, you'll catch sight of Paris's coolest spots. We're talking about the fancy Assemblee Nationale, the artsy Musee d'Orsay, the classy Institut de France, the Pantheon, the chic Cite de la Mode, Hotel de Ville, Notre Dame, and the Conciergerie. Sail under the arches of the oldest bridge, Pont Neuf, and wave to the regal Pont Alexandre III, named after a Russian tsar.

Onboard amenities

Secure a position on the terrace to indulge in exceptional panoramic views, and concurrently, avail yourself of the onboard Wi-Fi connectivity. Additionally, do not overlook the multilingual audio guide in 11 languages. So, jump on board, soak in the sights, and let the Seine show you the best of Paris.
