Seine River Cruise in Paris

A lovely, peaceful cruise if you're mainly interested in the St Martin Canal. Be warned that this is mostly a canal ride with lots of waiting for each lock to fill with water (lost count after the 7th). It's also a one-way trip with a drop-off point far from the original departure point.

Dinner cruise was better then expected ! Excellent service, very fancy and clean. Food was really good although I wish they had more chicken or vegetarian options. They had a live singer on board which was a nice surprise! And they also had photographers walking around to take professional photos for purchase. Overall this was amazing and a great way to end our trip in Paris.

Our guide Victoria met us on time and was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip. Bear in mind timings if you have other activities booked. Our meeting time was 12.30 but we didn't get on the lift until 1.10 then there was a long queue for the summit. We didn't need to rush though as despite the app saying about strict entry times for the Louvre visit, nobody seemed bothered when we got there. The Louvre is huge and you need a lot of time to fully appreciate it, long queue for Mona Lisa. We did the cruise at night and again there was a long queue but it was well worth seeing the tower lit up at night as it is spectacular!

The dinner cruise was worth every penny! If you’re debating going, GO! I took my mom and she was shocked at how fun and relaxing it was. The meeting point is steps from the Eiffel Tower so we came early to get pics. The boat check-in was 2 sec and we were on the boat. I purchased the lowest tier “Etoile” - wasn’t sure what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised to be seated by the row of tables directly adjacent to the window (1 foot away from the people who paid to sit at the window.) Amazing! All glass windows = incredible views. Super clean windows. Comfy seat. The food: wow… just amazing. Had a lovely salmon appetizer, the escargot app was even more stunning. The main dish of veal with potato was so savory. Finally dessert - the praline hazelnut cream cake was 10/10. Loved getting sparkling wine to start and unlimited red wine. Our waiter was SO lovely! The live singer was so talented singing famous songs - thank you for an unforgettable night in Paris. We really loved this.

Experience a must do! We went shortly after sunset and it was magical. The audio guide is not very convenient, but there is still a person who points out the various points of interest that can be seen from the boat at that time. The crepe from the kiosk opposite is also excellent! I recommend queuing up a long time in advance, because the queue for "night" hours was huge.

I understand visitors want to capture the best photos of Paris BUT….does that mean they get to ruin the experience for others? We paid for expensive seats to have a window view of our cruise. Sitting down to enjoy the view, we couldn’t have been happier. Then SHE showed up…and unfortunately hardly returned to her seat. With all this hair (who wants hair over their food?), she hung over my daughter-in-law like a dark cloud most of the experience. The wait staff had to constantly move around her, she pulled the hair of my daughter-in-law, bumped into her, all while snapping selfies and photos of Paris. In question - If you pay for the center of the ship seats, do you have the right to come stay by the window on top of guests have paid to be by the window while dining? I finally had to ask the staff to request she leave. However, should the staff have handled this situation much earlier by asking the guest to return to her seat?

Was great ! Our tour guide was informative and the champagne tasting was great :) would definitely recommend

It was very nice. Paris is magic... On the roof of the boat, we took advantage of the beautiful ride. But... lack of organization on schedules. One shot is 6 p.m. then 6:20 p.m. but it is indicated that it is a departure every 40 minutes. A little confusing, but beyond that, great!!!

great experience. On the day of the event, one more person was suddenly added, so I asked the lady at the counter, and she was very kind to arrange it. Thanks to you, I was able to have dinner with my friend's daughter who is living in college in Paris. The young lady was a vegetarian, but she accommodated us. Surprisingly, the vegetarian menu also looked very delicious!

Beautiful way to see the city. We did the tour at 6:00pm. Which seemed to be popular as It was very very busy however the boat is big to fit a lot of people on. Was perfect timing for sunset and when we arrived back the Eiffel Tower started to sparkle.

Amazing experience. The waiters could be better - took off the plate and put the used fork and knife on the white table, making it all dirty - and I was not the only one as other tables were complaining about the same. You can only go to the top on the way back since on the way forward they do not allow. Besides that, it was a great experience.

This was a great cruise and good value for money! It does get very busy so get there early, the stewards close entry to the boat once it is full to avoid overcrowding and you have to wait for the next one. We wanted to sit on top deck and we did, we returned to the boarding point at the same time the Eiffel Tower started twinkling so we got an amazing view! Highly recommend!

Everything perfect! Good food, good service. The only criticism: it was too tight. You could hardly get past the other tables. The music was also very good. You could dance something later. We would book this event again when we are in Paris. The view of the illuminated Eiffel Tower was a dream.

Nice cruise at nightfall, music on board and open bar, drinks are not expensive, 3 euros for a glass of mulled wine, 7 euros for a bottle of champagne, standing or sitting on the boat, for taking photos , Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, place for shows, suitable for families

We had a very smooth and enjoyable experience. The whole process from booking the tickets, to getting on the bus and cruise was very easy. I would just suggest that the stop next to the Arc de triomphe needs to be a bit more obvious because there is construction and it was not easy to find. All the other stops were easy to locate.

The Arc, I thought held the best view of the city compared to all the other high points we visited during our trip, a must see. The boat cruise was great, quite relaxing, gives a different vantage point of certain sights and of the cities bridges you can only see from there.

Great boat trip. Amazing value, was cheapest I found and it even included a free drink, ice cream, crepe or waffle. Snack was easy to get, just across from the queue for boat and was able to take on board. Boats running every 30 mins, long queue as we went for a night time cruise but went down fairly quickly. Would definitely recommend.

A very enjoyable trip. Had a lovely 3 course dinner, we paid extra for flowers and champagne. It was nice but nothing too special. The map direction from the app was helpful. Meet at the foot of the stairs but the river. Find a boat that looks like serving dinner. No one really shouted to inform what the trip was for. You must be at the boat before 12.30pm as it will set off at 12.30pm on the dot. The meal was lovely and the sightseeing of France on the river was a good and different experience. You will need to pay extra if you are getting other drinks or wanting the red meat. vegetarian menu was available and a good option. They have a photo crew on board that will take your photo’s and if you wanted one of theirs, it will be an added cost, I think €30 for 3 printed photos plus downloads. Overall a nice experience with French music being played.

Was a very nice boat trip. For anyone expecting a guy with a sign on the jetty to take you to the specially family-friendly cruise, that's not how it works. Just stand in the long queue, this is the normal boat trip that hundreds of others do. But like I said, it's very pretty.

It was a pleasant experience, the only thing that I would say can be. Enter is the app to hear the tour guide. If your are trying to take pictures on your phone, and you are trying to listen to the audio guide in the app, it will automatically take you off the app once you open the camera app on your phone, then you can’t reopen the audio guide app. So you have to choose, audio guide, or pictures. It the crew on the tour did point out to major landmarks. That was cool.
