Montmartre Tours

If you are a visitor to Paris, a boat ride on the Seine is a must. It’s beautiful, relaxing and really helps you get oriented to the city. On this particular cruise the narration is kind of cheesy, but you’re not required to listen. Better to look up and experience the trip.

It was a nice experience to see the sights with the night lights. The narration was short for each site because they have to explain in many languages. I recommend this tour during the day with a guide also. During the day you see more and get great history and stories with a guide.

Would recommend warm clothes or a blanket if going after 5pm, as it gets really cold, but it was very beautiful and the descriptions of the places we passed were very historically pleasing to hear for the history lovers and very poetic and entertaining for the romantics. Next time, I’ll just be sure to bring a blanket. (If you don’t you can always stay in the closed part of the boat, the view gets a bit restricted but it’s still enjoyable.

We took the 10 pm boat and with the timing of the cruise, just as we docked at the river at the base of the Eifle Tower, the light show went off. I do recommend you be sure to take it late evening so you can enjoy the beauty of Paris reflected in the river. All along the route there were many people out sitting ont the river banks, strolling, dancing, yelling out to the boats. Great fun. Do it!! Cheap!!!

Beautiful way to view the scenery of Paris. You see so many points of interest. The audio guide can be accessed for free without internet. Sitting up the top outside was the best view. Bring earohines for the audio guide if you sit outside. This was one of my favourite activities.

Perfect way to see the main sights of Paris if you are short of time or are just starting your trip to get your bearings. Excellent views (photo opportunities) of the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. There was a queue but went down quickly (5 mins) and we boarded the boat at 2.30pm. The boat departs every 30 mins except, the 1pm and 7.30pm slot. The whole experience took 1 hour and it is 5 mins from a metro station. Would highly recommend!

The river cruise was lovely! We sat on top and it was nice to be present and just look at all of the attractions. The audio is not good at all though! Very cringey! Would change that if I could do we ended up not listening to it. You can chose to - it has various languages and if you bring AirPods or any headphones, it’s easy to connect to! But yes, wouldn’t listen if I were you. They play French music which is nice and it was good just to be there. I would do it again

Great experience, the time flew by. The seating on the boat was fantastic, plenty of leg room, benches are in rings so that everyone is facing the edge of the boat. Simple boarding process, very smooth and easy, moved quickly once boarding began. We thought the line looked very long, but the boat fits a lot of people, so the line disappeared once boarding began
