The cruise is beautiful and offers a unique view of Paris. For those who want it is possible to stay inside the boat to avoid the cold that is inevitable in winter. The upper floor is uncovered, with long benches on all sides to offer the best possible view. In the centre, the roof is glazed to let those staying indoors see the outside. We stayed outdoors so I don't know what the view through the glass roof is like.

Cruise started and ended EXACTLY on time. We rode on 1/2 on top and it was was cold and windy esp on the return but was to be expected. We were lucky to have a sunny day. Commentary cannot be heard when on top but there is an app for that. I had been to Paris several times so did not need it but first timers should know what they are seeing.

The river cruise is definitely worth doing. There is an audio commentary in different languages and all glass so even if you don’t have a window seat you can see everything. We didn’t visit at peak tourist season so plenty of room. Was great to get out of the cold too!

My family and (3 people) joined this tour in Dec 2022. Booked online, went to the banks of the Seine opposite the Eiffel Tower, then embarked on an exciting journey, seeing parts of Paris by river. Since we left just before sunset, Paris with the lights on and the Eiffel Tower looking golden, were truly the unforgettable sights.

We had an amazing experience at this cruise!! Well organized and easy to find the meet point. It was aamazing to see the buldings and the bridges from th boat. We took the boat at 16:30, so we had the opportunity to see Paris before getting dark and at the end of the cruise the lights of Eiffel tower!

they were super nice and the time flew by. If you sit on the deck you wont have the audioguide but if you sit downstares there will be enough guide-phones for everyone. One of the workers kept informing the entire boat (the deck too) whenever we were passing bye an important sight, to make aure we wouldn't miss it. It was great!

Even on a rainy evening we loved the river cruise. The lights are so beautiful and it is amazing how many landmarks you can see from the river. The bridges of Paris are best seen from the water. The narrator was interesting and he made sure that we recognized the major monuments and buildings along the way.

Having read the reviews we planned our day for the 5/5:30pm ferry to see the city at night. On arrival the line was horrendously long, at least a few hours wait. As we had a dinner reservation so we had to come back again later ((which was very annoying as we were the other side of town so multiple train tickets were purchased)). We came back for the 10pm trip which was fairly empty and were the last group to attend the ferry. We weren't disappointed - was amazing to see the city at night with hardly anyone upstairs. We used our phone for the commentary but at times was nice to just take in the sights. Shame the company don't ticket the time slots to avoid initial disappointments with queing.

Specific starting point was vague. There were hundreds of people milling around for several different cruise companies. You need to give exact coordinates. If you don’t speak French it’s a confusing situation. Also very long lines with 30-45 minutes waiting. Boat was super full for sunset cruise. Very confusing

We went on a Mon and was told it was closed for private event and told to come back next day. The cruise was much bigger than expected. Most people went to the upper deck to catch the views outside but soon, most came down to the lower deck which was warmer since now is winter. Value for money considering is an-hour cruise ride. Just relax and enjoy and scenery.
