Highlights

Board your luxury 250-person vessel at your selected time and head out along the sparkling River Seine. Pass the iconic Eiffel Tower, and cruise under Pont Alma and Pont Alexandre III. See the impressive National Assembly building, which houses part of the French parliament, and look out for the Louvre Museum. With an information booklet in hand, you can read up on all the sights from the comfort of your dining table. Opt to head to the upper deck, too, for 360-degree views during your cruise.

Drift along Ile St Louis and Ile de la Cité, and capture photos of Notre Dame Cathedral; floodlights make this Gothic masterpiece even more striking at night. Other sights include the National Library and Paris’ very own Statue of Liberty.

You’ll be served a gourmet 3-course dinner prepared by an award-winning team of chefs to enjoy while you take in views of Paris illuminated at night (see sample menu below). Upgrade to include drinks to complement your French meal, such as an aperitif, wine, Champagne, and coffee.

After two hours of cruising the Seine, disembark near the Eiffel Tower where your tour began.

Highly recommend! - Just book it; 100% worth it! Views were 10/10 and the food/atmosphere was great. Sure the service service was very typical for Europe/France. The food isn’t Michelin star, but it’s decent and let’s be honest, you’re really there for the sights and experience. Do the later cruise so you can see the Eiffel Tower at night!

28th wedding anniversary celebration with an amazing - The food and wine was good. The boat was clean. The wait staff was accommodating. We upgraded to a window seat the view was amazing. The mood would be better if there was entertainment. My husband turned on music at our table to enjoy while we sailed. This was was of our favorite anniversary celebrations.

Beautiful way to see Paris - This was such a cool way to see some of Paris. We started near the Eiffel Tower and went past it all the way to Notre Dame. The whole way down was in daylight, and most of the way back was at night. Seeing the city and Eiffel Tower all lit up was very beautiful. The food was also very good and there was plenty of it. Plan to pay for drinks, as even the water costs something. I’d do this tour again.

100% Worth it! Take the cruise at SUNSET - TLDR: If the price isn't prohibitive, this is one of, if not the best, public Seine cruises. Food is lovely, boat is extremely clean and up-kept, most staff is attentive and kind, views are beautiful.. great way to quickly view some iconic parts of Paris. Food: I am reviewing this on behalf of two people. My family member got the seafood dish (shrimp) for the main course and pana cotta for dessert. I am vegan, so I was not even expecting to eat much, or to have trouble explaining what I can have to the waiters. To my awe, the waitress quickly notified me of the vegan option on board! Food is phenomenal for a public cruise. Service: this is Paris. Culture is not same as the US. Do not expect overwhelming kindness! The servers are kind on the boat, but even if you get unlucky, just smile and move on. It is typical for tourists to have such feelings. Views: 11/10. Bring a good camera! They ask you to arrive early because they don't want you to be disadvantaged and left behind. Yes, you wait on the boat once others load but it gives you ample time for photos! If you want window seat, just stand earlier in line, smile to servers, be polite. Remember, the USA service industry is very different. Coming to Paris, except Parisian vibes, manners, and standards. Focus on being in an amazing city and say Bonjour, Merci, Au Revoir. Excusez-moi and pardon. Flag the waiter down. Smile!

Absolutely amazing - The staff was amazing - fun and friendly. The food was excellent and so beautiful! But most of all the whole experience of seeing Paris at night on the river, with the lights all around, the boats, the bridges and the Eiffel Tower. We were in awe and it was our favorite experience from our 2 weeks in Europe.

The Views Make it Worth it! - The views from the cruise are spectacular and are what make this experience worth it. The food was good, I would even say better than expected for a river cruise. The drink are way over priced and I don't understand why water is not offered for free....what does it really cost to offer free still water? I did not care for the pushy over priced photographer. However, overall I would recommend it and I would do it again.

Unseen on Birthday River Cruise - The food was good. The music was underwhelming until the end. No, I would not recommend for Solo travelers because I felt that they overlook you even though you are seated in the middle of the room. My food seem to come last or forgotten and to top it off I don’t have a picture because the photographer said he didn’t see me. My server attempted to help but we were already back at the dock.

Good cruise, bad food - Unfriendly staff I made it clear at the reservation that I want a window table but this was not achieved . Food was served cold we were the first table to have the starter plate but the last table to receive the main course which was cold. Most of the deserts contain Alcohol which I made it clear at the reservation that I want No alcohol or pork in my food
