Take the cruise at dusk or night to see the Eiffel Tower lighted up. If you sit on the upper deck, the audio for the guided tour can not be heard though, but sitting at the upper deck was a good decision for us as we are able to see better the sights with the chilly wind adding more to the experience.

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.

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!

Had a very good experience, Booked it the same morning, the spot was easy to find the boat was open at the top as well so that is a big plus for me, there is a commentary on top, to explain to you what you are actually seeing this is a must if you visit Paris.

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.

No Audio Guide on the upper deck available!!!We drove by all these beautiful sites and if lucky where yelled the name through the loudspeakers at-why not have at least an app that everyone can download and scan a QR Code upon entering to be able to listen to with your own headphones? Done that many times at different activity

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

The specified 20 minutes that you should be there before the desired date are by no means sufficient in the high season. We queued 1 1/2 hours before it was our turn. The comments can hardly be understood in some places on deck. You should be aware that this is a mass processing. Still well organized.

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!

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!
