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.

Wonderful way to see some major sights in Paris! The boat was large and had ample upstairs (outdoor) and downstairs seating. The huge glass windows inside made it easy to see what you were looking at. Because the cruise is for anyone who gets a ticket, they have these little phones (downstairs) that you can program to your language to listen to information about the sights. Overall I'd recommend!

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.

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.

Was a good experience, good to queue up for about 15-20 mins before the time you want to go on the cruise. It’s a big group size, don’t expect a very intimate setting but the cruise itself is very nice. Recommend going in the evening, on the trips that start on the hour (5pm, 6pm) instead of half past (5.30pm, 6.30pm), because you get to see the twinkling Eiffel Tower twice on the boat ☺️

This was a great way to see some of the beautiful sights of Paris, but in order to hear the guided portion you have to be inside the boat on the main level rather than up top on the outside seats. This meant choosing between having a closer open air view of the city or knowing what I was actually looking at. I would still go on this river cruise again but would have liked to know this ahead of time.

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!

Didn’t have to queue for very long and once all onboard we got going. Great way to see many beautiful buildings, the architecture is outstanding. We were lucky with the weather so sat out on the top deck, it was abit of a squeeze as the boat was very busy. It was definitely worth booking ahead. Would do this trip again shoukd I come back to Paris.

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.

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.
