The Bateaux Parisiens and Bateaux-Mouches are the best known cruise companies on the Seine. They offer river cruises, dinner cruises and lunch cruises. Bateaux Parisiens also offer a floating restaurant with a breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower, the Bistro Parisien. Departures are from the Port de la Bourdonnais at the foot of the Eiffel Tower for the Bateaux Parisiens, at the Port de la Conférence at the foot of the Pont de l'Alma for the Bateaux-Mouches. The differences between the companies lie in the details: the Bateaux Parisiens cruises offer personal audio guides when those of the Bateau Mouches offer audio comments broadcast by stereo speakers; Bateaux Parisiens charge for the location of the table and the quality of the wines when the price of the Bateaux Mouches dinner cruise also influences the quality of the menu. To make your choice, consult our guide to find out which is the best Paris dinner cruise on the Seine.

For sightseeing cruises, come as you are and dress according to the weather. For dinner formulas, correct attire is required. The dress code is simple: shorts, Bermuda shorts, flip flops, outfits and sports shoes are prohibited. For lunch cruises, a more casual outfit is tolerated.

The circuit depends on the formula chosen but all cruises make a loop from the pier located in the port of Bordonnais. The lunch cruise at 12.45 p.m., the dinner cruise at 8.30 p.m. and the festive cruises are longer and allow you to admire the center of Paris from the statue of liberty at the tip of Île aux Cygnes to the François Mitterand Library. The 1 hour river cruises and dinner cruises at 6 p.m. will take place between the Eiffel Tower and the Cité de la Mode. Please note that the cruise itinerary may be modified due to floods or anything that could endanger the safety of passengers at the sole discretion of the captain.

Reservation of Bateaux Parisiens in advance is strongly recommended regardless of the option chosen. Booking a sightseeing cruise allows you to obtain tickets with a barcode and avoid queues at the counters. You just have to show up for boarding and get on the next boat. Always book your cruise with dinner or lunch in advance, otherwise you run the risk of finding the boat fully booked.

For sightseeing cruises, placement is free. You can move on the boat between the covered and air-conditioned areas and the upper areas in the open air. For meal plans, the location will depend on the price paid. At noon and for dinner at 8.30 p.m., the Etoile formula gives you a table in the middle of the boat, the Privilege formula a table by the window and the Premier formula access to the VIP area at the bow of the boat. For dinner at 6.15pm, you will also have to pay a supplement to guarantee your location near the window.
