Discover Other Sightseeing Cruises in Paris

With its unlimited hop-on hop-off system across nine strategic points along the Seine, Batobus stands out from other operators by turning the river into a genuine tourist shuttle service. It also perfectly complements the guided sightseeing cruises offered by other companies in the sector. For travelers wishing to add a more narrative experience to their day, the guided cruise aboard the Vedettes du Pont Neuf in the heart of Île de la Cité is an ideal choice. At the foot of the Eiffel Tower, two major operators serve the Port de la Bourdonnais and Port de Suffren: the large multilingual sightseeing cruise and the friendly river cruise departing near the Trocadéro. Families with children will enjoy the themed cruise designed for young adventurers, while heritage enthusiasts should not miss the historic company founded in the late 1940s and its boarding point opposite Pont de l'Alma. For those wishing to extend their boating experience beyond the Seine, two longer cruises await on the Canal Saint-Martin: the 2.5-hour river journey from Orsay to La Villette with lock crossings and the cruise through the underground vaults of northeastern Paris, two itineraries that reveal a lesser-known side of Paris far from the traditional tourist route.
