Come and celebrate Christmas on December 24 2026 aboard the Bateaux-Parisiens. Few boats can boast of offering such a magical view of the Christmas lights in Paris, thanks to an ingenious system of huge windows with invisible frames. You will be able to marvel as you pass under the illuminated bridges of the Capital while savoring a menu specially designed on board for the occasion. The Bateaux-Parisiens are very attached to local cuisine and only cook products carefully selected for their taste, seasonality and origin.

The Bateaux Parisiens offer you:

Boarding at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, left bank
Live musical entertainment with singer and orchestra
A 6-course menu (appetizers, starter, main course, cheese, dessert and sweets)
Drinks (mineral water, coffee, wine and glass of Champagne)
A panoramic view of the illuminated monuments of Paris.

The scalable rates are justified by the location on board the boat.

If you prefer to celebrate Christmas in Paris on December 25 2026, the Bateaux-Parisiens also offer a Christmas lunch on the Seine. For other dates, discover all our offers for a Bateaux Parisiens dinner cruise.

Common questions

Christmas Eve on the Seine in Paris, Bateaux-Mouches or Bateaux Parisiens?

Have you decided to celebrate the night of December 24 aboard a Bateau Mouche but don't know which Christmas dinner cruise to choose in Paris? That of the Bateaux-Parisiens is irreproachable and you will never be disappointed. Its famous competitor, the Bateaux-Mouches company, does not offer a Christmas dinner cruise. The choice is therefore quickly made. Be aware, however, that there are other Christmas Eve cruise options in Paris.

What is the price of a Christmas Eve party aboard the Bateaux Parisiens?

The rate is set at €195 for December 24 and €165 for December 25 2026.

What does the price of the Bateaux-Parisiens Christmas dinner cruise include?

The rate for the evening of December 24 includes the cruise on the Seine, the gastronomic meal in 5 stages, a glass of champagne and a half-bottle of wine per person (or soft drinks), and live entertainment with a singer and orchestra.

How long is the Bateaux-Parisiens Christmas Eve cruise?

With a cruise departure around 8:30 p.m., the Christmas evening will last about 3:30 hours. Take care to arrive at least 30 minutes early for boarding so that you can sit calmly at your table.

Where is the Bateaux Parisiens Christmas Eve boarding?

The Bateaux Parisiens have a fixed boarding at Port de la Bourdonnais, under the Pont d'Iéna at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. The river company's hosts and hostesses will be on hand at the port to tell you which boat you're going to celebrate Christmas in Paris on.

Everything was very good

Everything was very good, from reception to dinner, except the proximity of the tables, left us a bit without privacy. But it was effectively a unique experience. Thanks very much

Hotel was very nice and the staff was very friendly. Everything was clean. Floors were a little squeeky but the hotel is older but it adds to the character.

Well done

Well done! It isn't easy to do a 2 hour Christmas lunch for all those people all at once and make it a pleasant experience. Food was very good too.
