Relaxing and informative
October 16th 2023
I’m easy and relaxing, way to see the city, sound quality of the description in multilingual isn’t good, but once you get used to it, you can listen to it and taking the sites, a very different view, particularly of the repairs at Notre Dame.

The Compagnie des Bateaux-Mouches cruise does not stop. It takes a tour around the main monuments of Paris between the Eiffel Tower and the tip of Île Saint Louis. If you are considering making stops on the Seine and using the boats as a means of transport, you should rather use the Batobus shuttle service.

The promenade cruise from the Alma bridge takes you around the must-see sites and monuments of Paris: the route passes through the Louvre Museum, the Town Hall, the Conciergerie, Notre-Dame de Paris, the Musée d'Orsay, the Trocadéro and of course the Eiffel Tower.

What are the tourist attractions around the Bateaux-Mouches?

Before or after a cruise on the Seine with the Bateaux-Mouches, you are in the center of Paris at an equal distance (about 1 km) from the Champs-Élysées, its luxury boutiques, its cabaret Lido de Paris, its Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower with the Pont d'Iéna at its feet and the Trocadero opposite. Next to the Alma Bridge, culture lovers will not be left out a few meters from the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris and the Yves-Saint Laurent Museum in particular. If you went on a night cruise on the Seine, continue the experience with a show at Crazy Horse de Paris located on the other side of Place de l'Alma at the entrance to avenue George V.

Do we need to book a Bateaux-Mouches promenade cruise in advance?
